      Same as for email. Downsize them to the pixel width of your site container. For my site that's 750px. So you need to know the size. Crunch to 80 quality as well

    Could you produce two videos, please. One) An exact step by step guide, you use every time, using luminar to editing a portrait.
    Two) Taking a colour raw portrait image and editing into a high contrast black and white portrait, again, only using luminar?
    Hope you can do both.
    Keep up the good work, love it.

    Hi Darlene, do I need to crop the image to 1.1 (square) or 4x5 before exporting at long or short edge for instagram? Or can I just export the original image at 1080 long or short edge for a IG post? Thank you 🙂

    • @DigitalPhotoMentor
      @DigitalPhotoMentor  6 місяців тому

      It works best on IG if you crop the image how you want it before exporting. It will take 4:5 on Instagram but any stronger ratio it tends to cut off the ends. I've tried panoramic images - it never shows the entire image. So I suggest crop first.

    The export function in NEO drives me crazy as it does not export the image back to where it came from as in when one is starting a new set of photos. I hate this very much!! Have to remember and find what was last set of photos that were shot in order to find where it went! I hate that stupidity!!! All other programs that I use sends it back to the folder that it came from. Also I always use the largest size of the image that email will take. This is because I want it to be as best as possible. A 60KB photo just sucks and is useless. I never had a problem with Facebook on lengths and widths. I never change those. FB does prefer jpeg. I never use the little dropdown box as I just now learned that it existed. You are very knowledgeable on this program, and we all appreciate your great videos! Thank you for the great detail!

    • @DigitalPhotoMentor
      @DigitalPhotoMentor  Рік тому

      Thanks for watching. As for where it exports, all the programs I use do the same as Luminar. They all default to the last place you saved to. That includes Photoshop and lightroom. Which ones are you using that go back to the original folder?
      As for sizing for email, please consider the recipient. A 20mg file by email isn't considerate of the recipient. If I get an email like that I cannot open or view it on my phone because I don't want to save such a large file on my device. So that's one issue. If I go to the computer now I can view it in the email but guess what? The email program displays a crunched version of the large file. So your recipient will only see the full high resolution one if they download it and open it. So you may be shooting yourself in the foot.

      @@DigitalPhotoMentor All of the Topaz programs know where the photo came from. So does Portrait Pro 23 Studio Max. That is where they put it, where it came from. Not at the last file that was used. Using NEO , I have lost up to 3 or 4 photos before I realize that NEO does not understand where the original came from. You must think I am stupid but it does happen and I still don't Like it. Yes Lightroom and PS suck at this also. I never use a phone for email. I only send photos that are requested by the recipient by computer. They always want the best, otherwise they are useless. and yes phones suck at large files. I have sent unedited photos shot by a phone to another phone by messenger. That is why I use a computer, not a phone. I guess I am spoiled by Topaz and Portrait Pro.

    Hi Darlene, I sell stock photos with Shutterstock. They are a bit particular regarding sharpness and noise. Other contributors suggest exporting at a smaller "size" so Shutterstock has less to be critical about. Does this mean I should dial down the Resize long edge or the Quality? Thank you.

    • @DigitalPhotoMentor

      No that's odd advice. Stock agencies want the largest files possible.

      @@DigitalPhotoMentor If you're not familiar with Shutterstock, they use a computer not people to judge photos for acceptance. Often it is confused by clouds, sand, snow, water, trees, grass and asphalt and decides the image is either out of focus or has noise even if the image is perfectly sharp. It can also reject a sharp subject but with a shallow depth of field or deliberate bokeh. It's very frustrating.

    just followed your advice for Instagram. Long side 1080 and the file comes out at around 1.6 mb. Changed to short side at 556 and size OK. But whatever I try Instragram refuses to upload and won't tell me why. Any thoughts?

      As far as I know IG doesn't have a size maximum. You could also try setting long side 1080 and quality 80. That will make the file smaller.

    When exporting an image as a TIFF to edit in another photo editing app , you didn’t make a note about the resolution … what is the appropriate setting for that ?

    • @DigitalPhotoMentor
      @DigitalPhotoMentor  6 місяців тому

      Not sure what you mean. Use the full high resolution file from the original camera (raw if you have it). If you mean like dpi, that doesn't apply. That only matters when printing. Here just maintain the pixel size.
