| [FYI] Lab Blender minor update
Just a minor update to »[FYI] I'm working on another PS plugin...
I added some buttons and highlighted (in purple) the few controls that should be bothered with first.
I recommend reading what I wrote at the above thread... I will repeat the following, though:
Just to be clear, the file below seems to work fine, is virus-free, and might be fun! It is, however, an alpha version... This plugin works with any Windows program capable of hosting Photoshop plugins (of the .8bf variety). Sorry, no Macs. Unzip the .8bf file, drop it into your plugins folder, restart your application... most of you knew that already, I think!

| reply to pog Your plugins are so much fun to play with and appreciated by so many, so as myself. I can put so much more feeling into what I am doing with your help. Thank you so much for sharing them. -- JKK Age is a very high price to pay for my maturity. If I can't stay young, I can at least stay immature! »www.pbase.com/jaykaykay |

1 edit | reply to pog So is there any way in which using this one at default settings differs from the "old" Lab Overlayer (can't say thanks enough for that one)? Is the difference just that this one is more 'tweakable' or is there a fundamental change in even the results with the default settings?
LATER EDIT: Well, contrary to my first expectations, trying out the new one set at the defaults gives different results from using the lab overlayer one on the same photo, also set at defaults. Interesting; this makes me think this actually has different use than the "old" lab overlayer? |

Heh... part of the difference had to do with me correcting some basic math problems that existed in the first. The Lab "amplify" sliders try to replicate some of the errors, though. Errors, or not, I also liked the results!
The reason for so many sliders/numbers is that I wrote this, in part, to be a learning tool for myself... my main question was how far can I go and how far does the resulting data go outside the working space. The limitations of RGB become quite clear rather quickly... for eg, the brightest white (R=255, G=255, B=255) carries a high luminance, obviously. However, what if you want red at the same luminance? You can't... R=255 is the max. -- My Site |

Well, I'm saving the "old" one, too, because I really like the results using it at the defaults. And will continue to explore the new one because choices are good (so the shrink tells me). The more info you can give about what to use when, the better for this simple-minded amateur. -- The truth of a thing is the feel of it, not the think of it. -- Stanley Kubrick |
