Hey Frank,
Thanks so much, I appreciate it.
Getting a 7+ from such a talented photographer is good for the ego.
I can't wait to check out what new stuff you have added while I was away.
Dan,

Hey Peter,
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it.
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, but I have been away for a while. As you can tell I have not uploaded any images in some time.
My PhotoShop Technique is as follows.
1. I adjust the levels according to the image. 2. I make a saturation adjustment (-30 to -80). The amount depends on the image. 3. Make a copy the layer 4. I apply a Gaussian blur and I pick a radius between 4 and 6 5. I change the blending mode of the duplicated layer to soft light 6. I save the image as a copy or mock_up. (I never overwrite the original) 6. I use Mike Warren's frame action. Available from Action Central.

Well I hope this helps,
Dan
