Quickie Tips


If you’ve been following the Picture Perfect tips, you’ll be well on the way to getting your photos looking shiny and lovely. Here’s a couple of quickie tips:

Duplicate and then change


If you’re going to do something drastic to your photo, like a big crop, or a huge amount of adjustments, it might be an idea to duplicate the photo first, and work on a copy of that photo. You can then do a quick compare to the original photo to see if you’ve actually improved anything at all! Simply right click a photo, and choose Duplicate.

Get back to the original


Sometimes, you can take modifications too far. Adjusting shadows, exposure and all those other sliders can take a good looking photo and make it look, well, just plain odd. Somply right click on your photo, and choose “Revert to Original” and voila, you’re original photo will be back.
