Once again, many thanks to Steve (Bachs) for letting us use this, please all of you have a look at it, its very good!:thumb:
 
Another great and accurate tutorial Bachs.

Thank you very much for putting in the effort and then allowing us to share it with our members.
 
Thanks guys and thanks Team for sticking it on the front page.

I've been criticised many times elsewhere (everywhere actually :icon_eek: ) for having a tendency to oversharpen so I did quite a lot of research on the subject and came up with a couple of fine-tuned methods.

Selective sharpening is the way to go for me, especially edge sharpening and there's no better way of re-enforcing your own knowledge on a subject than trying to explain it to someone else.

One thing I can't stress enough is do it in a duplicate layer which you can bin or at least adjust opacity on to lessen the effect if you overdo it.

My favourite of the bunch is 'High Pass' sharpening as I can 'paint out' areas I don't want to sharpen.

I hope it is of much use to peeps as it has been to me, I've rescued many a 'binner' with combinations of the techniques :icon_cool
 
i will turn it into a thread for you guys, got a few of these to do
 
sorted.

Thanks to Bachs, have a quick check on it matey and make sure i havent goosed it!
