Instead of Photoshop this could be done in PhotoLine: PhotoLine can read guides from PSD format, so open PSD file if you already draw guides there earlier. Menu dialog Web->Tile Image->Create From Guides. "Auto Save" checkbox should be enabled, "Create HTML-Code" disabled. Then just save to...

"Replace Photoshop" is too abstract question. Photoshop is an app that have huge amount of totally different tools, so what exact tools do you need to replace? Each generation of Photoshop have some new useful and useless options, so what exact Photoshop version do you need to replace? Photoshop...

For literally no money you can use PhotoLine that in one tiny single app (60 megabytes) replaces Photoshop, Illustrator, Pagemaker, Bridge, Lightroom, PDF editor, Batch converter, Panorama stitcher, Focus stacker, HDR merger, and even Barcode/QRcode generator :smile: Painting options also slowly...

PhotoLine development continues and there is a new beta version every 2-3 weeks. In addition to UI icons and Cursors pack https://www.deviantart.com/shijan/art/825902404 now we have Assets and Presets Library Project https://gitlab.com/Herbert123/photoline-assets-and-presets-library It includes...

Yep, you got the idea. I use thumb screw up-down mechanism only because my current bellows don't have up-down control. thumb screw system is very precise to adjust up/down but when i lock/unlock railblocks, they slightly change position and i don't like these tiny changes. That Base plate should...

Some requests, just in case if developer can read this: Use neutral gray background. Allow to change background brightness, or use quick toggle - dark gray/light gray Support legacy macOS version. Therer are millions of people who remained with 10.14.6 Mojave due many software and especially...

Input profile and color management applied to the camera. it is not something special to negative film itself. Things are perfect when you create custom made ICC profile specially for your camera+light source setup. I use custom made Well Behaved Input ICC created based on this guide...

It also looks thtange to me that if i create tiff debayered with disabled color management and import it in Filmomat Smart Convert without any input ICC profile - result looks the same as if i use same tiff file but with proper assigned custom made input icc profile...

It works in its own way. Seems it convert any input to some own color space and process image in that color space. Imported RAW looks near the same as imported tiff (debayered with disabled color management and assigned to custom made input profile made with IT8.7 target). This is rather unusual...

Here is another theory from Sandy: "I very much doubt that there is any clipping in those images. The main difference between pcdtojpeg and pcdMagic renderings is that pcdMagic uses scanner specific color profiles, and pcdtojpeg, at least the current version, does not." And my side by side...

Sandy didn't say about expected release date. Here is my small recearch about importance of wider color gamuts: Even if PhotoYCC color gamut is same as sRGB, wider color gamut output makes sense to recover possible hidden data. Here is info from Wiki article: "This encoding scheme is that it...

Good news! About a week ago i asked Sandy (developer of pcdtojpeg) for option to export to 16 bit formats and convert to custom output ICC profile. Here is the answer: "I am planning a new version of pcdtojpeg, and the current plan is that it will include many of the upgrades that you suggest...

Kodak scanner used some sort of compensation for each specific film model as described here http://tedfelix.com/PhotoCD/FilmTermCodes.html "Film Terms are what some scanner manufacturers call "LUTs" or Look Up Tables. They define color corrections that are needed to make each type of film look...
