Thanks sznerchu! We also found this little nifty little widget called flickrSlidr that lets us display all the photos shared on our website. Check it out here http://www.peachpit.com/promotions/promotion.aspx?promo=136135&redir=1&rl=1

Pretty cool.

Great idea for a group – I’ve posted a query on the flickr group discussion forum better integration of Lightroom into the 7 point system. I know you mention right up front in the book to swap references to Camera Raw for Lightroom – however by the second/third chapter this already goes awry (there’s a fine old fashioned word) when you reference opening files in Smart Objects mode.

You may have already addressed this Scott and apologies if you have – I’m lazy I know blah de blah de blah.

Scott,

I hope you or someone else can help with this. I’m using Lightroom and Photoshop CS3 to work through your 7-point system. However, when I import your RAW files into Lightroom on my Mac, they don’t appear as flat and lifeless as they might in their folder or in your book. I am able to reset the RAW file so I can then work through the system, but is there a way to import the files so they look like your originals in the book?

Thanks!

Eric

It is obvious by looking at some images that subtlety goes a long way. Others, the user has grasped your book and made some good looking images.

It’s a great idea for a Flickr group like this. I already mentioned it in a review I did of your book on my site. I have a few before and afters I will upload to the group soon.
