What is in the pack?
- Basic Adjustment Layers : All the layers you need for Basic Adjustments. If you don't need a layer, just drag it to the bin!
- Dodge & Burn Baby! : Does what it says on the tin, sets up a new layer for dodging (brightening) and burning (darkening) using the paint brush.
- Let there be Light! : Paint light into your photo (instructions included)
- HP Sharpen : For larger images over 600px wide/tall
- Lick, Breath, Kiss of Life : Create 'pop' in your pics, good for foggy/misty shots.
- Colour Correct - Average : Does what it says on the tin, correcting colours (if the overall photo is too blue/yellow/red ect)
- LAB colour blur: If you have weird coloured bands around high-contrast areas, this will help reduce them, also great for colour noise
- Burnt Border : Not a grunge effect! Darkens the edges of your photo nicely. Use on images over 800 px wide.
- Sharpen for Web : Use on pics under 800px
- Shadow/Highlight Compression: Reduces contrast, brings shadows out, darkens lights.
- Traditional Vignette: Circular/elliptical darkening edges thingy.
- Wow! Pop : Increases Saturation really well.
- Wow! Pop Protect Skin : Increases Saturation without making people look like the Tango man.
