A few random tests of playing around and no manual edits were done to any of the file meta values. I'm really curious now what data, if any, will be captured when these are saved to the server and the EXIF attempts to be captured. 🤓

A conversation about Photoshop's "Generative" fill features got me going down the proverbial rabbit hole and I ended up playing around with it to have some fun experiment. I was surprised by how easily I could start with a literal blank canvas in PS and then use the generative tools to generate...

Absolutely. My comment earlier about not using it for prints is from the perspective of somebody who does not have enough experience in PS to use it effectively, hence I wouldn't trust myself to make edits in situations where people would be likely to notice my mistakes. In the right hands, as...

If you have access to a current version of PS I think you'd have some fun playing around with the new generative fill options. Besides making it easy to do some edits like @L0n3Gr3yW0lf demonstrated you can start with a literal blank image and do stuff like the alien above.

I think for casual/hobby/home/idiots-like-me users it'll be handy tool for the for the shots you want to share with family & friends but want to fix something minor. Even if there are some minor issues I suspect nobody would even notice when shared to places like Facebook or other social media...

If nothing else, the PS generative fill tools are a wonderful way of killing time while you're on work calls.

You'll want to use the CODE tag. 😉

Just to rule it out, did you try with all of your adblocks disabled?

FYI for anybody interested... after clicking this link you'll be taken to a page asking for your name and an email address. After proving an email address you'll be sent an email with a link to download the installer and, more importantly, the registration key.

I have the original .AI file for the "Cameraderie.org" logo seen in the header but I don't have AI. Are there any AI users that might be able to do a small paid job of some tweaks using the original .AI file? Thanks :)

Woot! Thank goodness for Gmail. :D I'm looking at scanning some photos but the only scanner I have in the house is an old Epson 2850. Only problem is that Epson doesn't support Win10 64-bit drivers for the 2850. I hear good things about the Epson V600 so I could use this an excuse to buy...

So... another year, another Luminar product by Skylum. 🤯 https://skylum.com/luminar-neo I'm really not sure at this point whether Luminar can be considered a viable product for long-term usage. They make a point of touting their products as one-time purchases, versus subscriptions like Adobe...

Google has since bought out Neverware. For now nothing is changing but "over the long term CloudReady will become an official Chrome OS offering" makes it sound like some type of change will be coming. https://cloudreadykb.neverware.com/s/article/Neverware-is-now-part-of-Google-FAQ I've...

Do you attribute that to the OS or the hardware? 🤔

Walter, here's a relatively recent thread from a few folks using ACDSee.... https://cameraderie.org/threads/acdsee-anyone.49370

.... here's an article that explains why Catalina is breaking stuff. https://www.theverge.com/2019/10/12/20908567/apple-macos-catalina-breaking-apps-32-bit-support-how-to-prepare-avoid-update

I had come across issues of Lightroom having issues with Catalina but hadn't seen any mention of Luminar. Depending on which post you came across over at the Skylum forums there's a possible workaround until they release an actual update...

It's a "Google Photos" feature that kicks automatically when the Google "AI" detects a series of images that might be stitched together It only kicks in though if the "Creations" option is turned on in the Google Photos Assistant Cards. From the web users can visit...

Lately I've been going down that route as well of examining all of my monthly charges. When I was a younger man I used to use Quicken to methodically track my expenses but in recent years I've gotten lax about it so now extraneous charges don't bubble up to the top like they used to.

Is this because you're using Adobe to also host your images (so you an access them from any device) or because of how easy it is to get to the tools on any device (while still hosting the images locally)? My $9.99/mth plan with Adobe is still active but I just can't bring myself to using them...

Tagging @Jim McClain as well, I'm pretty sure I recall him using it during an earlier conversation about DAMs. The last time I personally used it was when back in the day when it started life as a little shareware image viewer that was perfect for using it with usenet (let my packet reader...

Version 3.1.3 is being pushed out. Below is the overview from the Windows version, the details are on the Skylum Blog. https://skylum.com/blog/luminar-313 In response to some... unhappy... customers & affiliates they've also updated their roadmap to break out what to expect in L3 versus L4...

Corel has announced Paintshop Pro 2020 with some new toys... OTTAWA, Aug. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Introducing PaintShop Pro 2020 and PaintShop Pro 2020 Ultimate, the powerful, all-in-one photo editing and graphic design suites built for photographers and content creators who want to...

So I'm a little disappointed with Skylum. :( Luminar 3, and now Luminar Flex, have been barely out and even though L3 was being promoted as having an extensive roadmap of stuff to come Skylum is now promoting a pre-release order of Luminar 4 which will not be a free upgrade for L3/Flex owners...

An interesting article over at Wired about how the team at VSCO go about creating their film filters for their apps. https://www.wired.com/story/vsco-film-photo-filters/ It's a short article but something that I had not really thought about before and, after reading that, I'm not sure if I...

From the US NE... logged out the 20gb is scrubbed from the site, while logged in it only shows under my account subscriptions. If they force existing subscriptions to upgrade I know a number of people that'll be upset since the price point is their main reason for sticking with Adobe.

What are you contemplating for a replacement?

That's my interpretation... that if you are planning on upgrading beyond Mojave when it's released then you'll lose being able to run Aperture but if you're already running Aperture and won't be upgrading then you should be OK. Aperture was discontinued by Apple back in 2014 so you may want to...

If you're still using Apple's Aperture on your MacOS machines, even though Apple discontinued updating it back in 2014, you'll be facing an upgrade decision. MacOS Mojave will be the last version of the OS that will support running Aperture "for technical reasons". Apple's suggestion is to...

For those who haven't upgraded yet, the 3.1.x update should be available to everybody by now. The big thing they're emphasizing with this release is the "Accent AI 2.0" update but there's some nice little things in there like the RAW + JPG pairs and support for Photoshop Elements as a plugin...

For Windows users, it's the same... File => Show Luminar Looks Folder.... The default folder is then C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Roaming\Luminar 3\Data\Looks\Users.

FYI - By now everybody who has a Luminar 3 license should be seeing a license for "Luminar Flex" in your "My software" listing. As a plugin to your existing apps you can continue using LR as a DAM but still take advantage of Luminar.

Once everybody gets their Flex license it'll be interesting to see the path Skylum takes because they've said that for now Luminar and Luminar Flex are at feature parity but that'll be changing in the future so somethings might show up in one product but not the other. Stuff like DAM is obvious...

I may have to check this one out. While I'm liking Luminar 3 for the casual amount of editing I do I'm not sure if it is quite ready to be used for organizing the images on my SAN at the house. Plus this is open source which is always a nice thing to play around with since the code is...

Did you come across this post in their forums? https://community.skylum.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360012020311-Can-not-open-any-DNG-raw-file- If you're interested, I can send you my email address if you want me to try the same file on my Win10 machine

Do you get an error message or anything on screen? The 3.0.2 patch just came out, have you updated to that release yet?

For the purposes of access to your images... have any of you guys looked into using a home SAN with remote access? For regions with limited home internet connection speeds it likely wouldn't be a viable solution or, at the least, an enjoyable solution, but if you've got a fast enough pipeline...

My Adobe CC subscription plan is about to expire soon (I actually went to cancel before but was offered two months free extension) and, before I install & fire it up one last time, does anybody work with .AI (Adobe Illustrator) files using non-Adobe solutions? The site logo (the full size logo...

Over the years I've amassed a large collection of images that I now store on a SAN on the home network. Some of the folders are JPG only images, some are both JPG & RAW images (same file name, same image, just different extensions), and some are RAW only images. For the second scenario, does...

The Luminar 3.0.2 update, build 2186, is now globally available; it was delayed and was only released in a few markets originally. Here's the update notes... Luminar 3, ver. 3.0.2 New Features: Take advantage of these new features. SUBFOLDER MANAGEMENT. Subfolders make it easy to further...

Tim, is your goal with an external monitor to have a color grading monitor, a 4K display, a 'larger' monitor, touch screen, or a combination thereof? As you've already eliminated some of the more expensive units what is your 'Wish List' of as many items as possible within the budget range...

Are their mobile versions more popular than their desktop version? Might be just me but it seems like there is a glutton of mobile editing apps all vying for attention these days.

Build 1471 of Luminar 3 was pushed out today; I noticed the dialog box had the product title as "Luminar 3 Media Pre-Release" so it looks like the code is still being tweaked. The accompanying email just said bug fixes but I don't see a log anywhere that goes into detail what the changes were...

Which OS and what version of the installer (L3 or L2018)? If L3 I can forward it to our contact.

If you log into your Skylum account at Sign in to your Skylum account you should see something similar to this...

I recently signed up our community as an affiliate and, after the press embargo ended on the 6th, Skylum sent out a bunch of marketing materials along with a link to Luminar 3 installer to try out. It installs along side Luminar 2018 so I've been using both now for the past week or so. I...

Fortunately I'm just starting to play around with Luminar 3, and Luminar in general, and since L3 installs side-by-side with L2018 anything I did in L3 didn't affect my L2018 install. With that in mind I ended up deleting the "Luminar Catalog" in my Pictures folder (the default install location...

That answer seems to be a big "no", for now at least. Review: Luminar 3 with Libraries -- The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly No keywords, no captions, no .xmp file support, no IPTC, no geo-tags, no versions or stacks, no smart albums, etc. This isn’t fun. When you import your files, the only...
