    The new version of Flickr

    Just checked the privacy & permissions setting, and Flickr determines which size photos it allows visitors to see and download by default. (2048px images)

    The new version of Flickr

    Same here, it was fine a couple of hours ago. ReEdit: Its back up, and down again. There was much 'up in armsness' on the flickr central forums earlier, well over 100 pages of angry flickrites demanding no less, their old flickr back. I read somewhere today that if you keep up the...

    Do you see a tint

    I have processed this image in Lightroom on my calibrated Dell IPS screen, every other screen I view the image on it has no tint, it just looks monochrome. All these 'other screens' are my laptop, my works cheap desktop and a few friends laptops. I thought people here would have a decent...

    Saving lightroom imports.

    You want to create a virtual copy of you edited image, then reset the original back to its unedited state and re-edit it from there, if you want to make a 3rd or 4th edit, just make a new virtual copy and reset the original. LR doesnt actually change your .cr2 .nef .dng or .jpg file, it just...

    new pc help

    For just viewing your photos that system would be ideal, but for any editing you might want to beef it up a bit. I haven't used windows 8 so cant comment on it, windows 7 is tried and tested (fixed)

    Need advice on Canon 500d/550d

    I have a 550d and my mate has a 500d, he wants my 550d..... The 500d is still a great camera and if you dont want to do hd video it will save you some money. But as others have said the 550d has a newer bits inside too. I find the 550 a little noisy at higher ISO's which you might be using for...

    Monitor calibration (IPS)

    I just got a Dell U2410 and calibrated it with my Spyder3. The colours were not far off out of the box, but I had to drop the brightness right down to about 20.

    VR and a tripod.

    All forms of VR/IS/OS assume that there is motion by default, even when there is none and will try to compensate for it. This could be why your moon shot is blurred, but it is probably down to tripod wobble. Try taking a shot in live view (if you have it) zoomed in to the maximum and you will...

    Image file naming enigma

    _IM is AdobeRGB as as fitzer said, it confused me too when I first got a Canon.

    Dodgerous monitors

    Low refresh rates on a CRT will give you a headache. I received a nice new Dell U2410 on Friday, not had a chance to play with it yet as I am flat out with a bad back, getting arm ache hold the laptop over my head...

    Laptop Project

    I have tried Ubuntu, Suse, and several others in the past, just for nerdy interest. I found Ubuntu the easiest to get used to as a Windows user, a basic linux book is handy too, like a DOS for Dummies if you dont know and linux cmds. It will probably run better than XP :-)
