[@marcin.sobocinski]

I managed to watch all 135 videos... learned a ton on DT. Thank you so much for your work!

[@audio2u]

Yikes! That's commitment! You deserve a medal for putting up with THAT!😄

[@lxhk3595]

Good to have you back explaining

[@audio2u]

Thanks!

Thank you very much, Bruce, and happy new year from Basque Country!

[@audio2u]

OMG, one of my most favorite places in Europe! Cath and I visited Zumaia for a couple of days in 2017 and absolutely loved it!

[@cosmo0080]

blessing and joy for 2024 for you and your family

[@audio2u]

Thanks Cosmo! Same to you!

[@Strandlaeufer77]

Bruce...you've been crucial to me to understand DT better. Thank you so much for your effort, enthusiasm and time for making all those great videos. Good on you, mate. A happy, healthy and prosperous new year from Norway

[@audio2u]

Many thanks!! Norway is on my list of future destinations, given our failed attempt to see the northern lights in '23!

[@Strandlaeufer77]

@@audio2u If you're travelling again and you'd like some more info about locations just let me know. Especially when you're planning to see the Fjords in the S-W

[@audio2u]

Thank you for the offer. When it gets closer to us travelling, I'll be sure to mention it and solicit some recommendations for places to go!

[@xperience-evolution]

I would love to see Video from you on how to achieve certain things. And I can't wait to watch the 4.6 Features Videos although I am not taking a lot of Photos at the moment and therefore don't use Darktable as much. Happy 2024

Happy new year to you also!

Thanks a lot for your untiring work on 'Darktable',. your instruction is brilliant,. it's a shame that I myself, use so few of the available modules,. but it's good to keep learning,.. ''all the best'' ,. to you - for 2024..

Hi Bruce, with 4.6 released, could you share which modules you use in most of the cases, as many new ones are introduces and some of the old ones have been improved. For example, we now have an improved Sigmoid and a new module RGB Primaries. Thanks in advance for your input.

[@audio2u]

Yeah, all of that will be covered in upcoming videos.

[@ZeeBee37]

Mr Bruce, I’m experimenting with Darktable from some time. Thank You for Your tutorials - they help a lot. Today I noticed that when I adjusted my photo, and it looks like I want to it to look, but when I’m exporting that photo, to jpeg, the colors on jpeg are more saturated, has slightly different tone. Do U know what might cause that?? It’s very annoying because they look different, not like at darktable. Thank You for support and all the best for new Year.

[@audio2u]

Hmmm. I'm not in front of my darktable machien right now, but things that come to mind are: 1. Have you got softproofing turned on or off in darkroom view? 2. What colour space profile are you exporting to? sRGB? AdobeRGB? Something else? Ideally, you'd be exporting to sRGB for digital display.

[@ZeeBee37]

@@audio2uThanks, I got it. As You said “softproofing” in darkroom switched on. it hasn’t been switched on. But under that button there is also “profile options” (right click) and it has been to AdobeRGB. When I changed to sRGB and export as sRGB no color has been changed - finally. Probably it was related to my camera settings- profile color in which I was shooting was AdobeRGB. Again thanks for advises!!

[@audio2u]

Glad I could help!

[@francisrajr8947]

Hi Bruce, New year Wishes to you... I want to switch from Linux mint to MxLinux for using Gimp, Dark table and Inkscape... As a user i need your suggestion....

[@audio2u]

Happy new year to you also. Not sure what kind of suggestion you're looking for. I've just installed mx linux as well.

[@francisrajr8947]

About Software availability and working experience on MxLinux when compare to the Linux mint...

[@audio2u]

Bit too early to tell, really! I only installed MX a couple of days ago. Still getting to learn it!

[@francisrajr8947]

Okay... We will learn along with your amazing Darktable tutorials !!!

[@audio2u]

Thanks for the kind words.

[@GaryParris]

if you are going to do a snapshot, why not create a duplicate at that point then you can go back?! Happy new year!

[@audio2u]

Yep, THAT is absolutely the best solution, particularly given that a duplicate is just a few kilobytes in the form of one extra .xmp file!

[@Zuzzt]

A little bit more light on your shadow side would improve....

[@audio2u]

Each to their own! :)

[@saalikreynolds3064]

I have moved away from Darktable because it seems that it is trying to be 'too' scientific and it is getting too 'difficult' to keep up with. My preference will continue to be Lightroom (an older version) because it is much easier to get things done.

[@audio2u]

That's absolutely your right! No piece of software is ever "all things to all people".
