wow, funny to learn something new after 5 years of usage, thanks!

[@chrisfloyd919]

Hi Unmesh, I wanted to ask if you would consider doing a video on adapting photo's to different paper sizes? I like printing photo's in 6x8, but my printer dialog does not list 6x8 in the Paper Size drop-down. I found videos on using the Crop tool to change the aspect ratio & stretching backgrounds. With a bit of fumbling, I managed to custom assign 6x8 & stumbled onto the Printable Area settings, though could not find my way back to it to adjust it further. You did a video where you reviewed several AI retouch programs & I'm hoping you could do the same for printer dialogs of various printer brands, I use 'Brother'. Could you also retouch on color management, as a hack I edit in photoshop, but retain printer control of colors to avoid images coming out dark. For an occasional hobbyist with a good measure of perseverance I go through a lot of photo paper trying to fumble through.

This is for basic but effective. patch tool + fade (to control opacity)

Great video! Same reasons for me here. But i use a leica m1 for my personal photos so i dont even need power for my photo taking journeys! 🤣

you are the best

[@maheshsemwal916]

informative video bro

[@Beauty.and.FashionPhotographer]

Question: at around minute 9... the face has many skin areas with no pores at all, left side for ex. , as if it was blured too much. What would you do to create new healthy skinpores in this very local area ?

[@richcox]

Have you tried the shine remover in Luminar NEO? It’s under Face I believe. I think it’s good

[@like2clikphotostudio]

Photoshop god ❤

[@JonathanVillafranca]

@PiXimperfect To do this, it is more effective and easier to clone to a new layer with a flow of 4% and the Darken blending mode, sampling an area close to the highlights.

[@Spiffelight]

Me after 1min and 40 seconds "What the fuuuu-" you're amazing Piximperfect.

I tried the matt plugin and it's great but they are all SO EXPENSIVE. I supposed if one was only doing portraiture it would make sense. It did work really well though.

Is there a Lightroom plugin?

[@GiovanniApreaCapri]

I am wondering how to preserve the skin texture, I think I follow by the letter but it seems like smoothening the skin to the point it looks fake even tho I turn the layer opacity very low, any suggestion?

[@soundpark_]

is there an adjustment for the teeth?

[@syedfaiq26]

Please make next video on camera raw in photoshop Cant find any video on KZbin at this topic Please 🙂

[@kamrynkavanagh910]

Hey! Been following you for years, your vids were especially useful when I was in college for photography. I know that you mean that a particularly shiny face doesn’t look amazing in photos. But literally billions of people have oily faces, it’s not “UGLY”. Please. ❤️ (Still a great vid!)

[@mostafanawabi7233]

love form afghanistan ❤❤

[@oriomenoni7651]

Why can't I save your videos in my list of favorites anymore?

[@digitalclips]

Or you could use the new Generative Fill.

[@HReuss]

If you want to replace the skin shine in accordance with the skin texture, all you need to do is copy the whole picture into an alpha channel, adjust the contrast and make a selection. Then, you can brush in an own layer (works since Photoshop 3.0) or directly in the picture (works since Photoshop 2.0). This is how I have been doing it as a pro for more than 25 years, and it doesn't take hours at all. 🤨 But I understand that all you are doing is convincing people to buy these overpaid and mainly useless plug-ins, which are not for free at all.

[@longboardfella5306]

Have you all tried the generative fill tool for such purposes? I'm finding it very helpful. It's only in beta for now though

[@PiXimperfect]

Generative Fill has a resolution cap and it changes the texture. If you can work with it for professional projects, you can, but still it legally cannot be used for commercial purposes.

[@aifoSFilms]

First here. Amazing

[@Kyotopearl]

Best tutorials online by faaaaaar. But I wish you wouldn’t call it ‘ugly’ skin shine cause it’s not. It would be more accurate to say ‘ tone down skin shine’

[@maylhinem1077]

I was looking for this comment. Rather questionable to call something natural and normal (shiny/oily skin) ugly...

[@MaximilianonMars]

It was a probably incorrect choice by a photographer to use a harsh light instead of a soft light when taking the photo. People do not walk around in everyday circumstances looking that oily, that's unnatural circumstances. To call it ugly is normal, because it is correct. This is not a 'body positivity' moment to claim it looks good, it's a mistake by the photographer. There are limited circumstances when harsh lighting is desirable on a human subject.

[@Kyotopearl]

@@MaximilianonMars While it might not be ‘right’ for EVERY instance this photo could be used for…Girl is GLOWING here🤩. If it was an AD for hydrating skin that product would fly off the shelves. And to say “people don’t walk around everyday looking this oily”…wow😆 Sounds like you are lacking some life experience here…Oily skin can be caused by a variety of factors like genetics, hormones, stress, diet, and humidity. Just as some people have more body hair, are taller or shorter, lighter, darker, it’s ALL natural. Just because it’s not what the photographer wants for that particular photo does NOT automatically make it ‘ugly’ by everyday standards.

[@fredjones1949]

RetouchMe is very expensive. Content Aware Fill works like a treat and is quick.

[@arun___krishnan]

Where is the balance videos of beginner tutorials? Waiting for that

[@mbronec]

Windows defender blocked Retouch4me Mattifier installer. It says it could be dangerous.

[@DigitalDesignsbyPJ]

Way to expensive for me considering how much more affordable portrait pro luminar, and Topaz are.

[@vasiliychernomorov1115]

One of downsides of retouch4me it is really slow on processing 30-60 seconds each frame. It is still faster, than doing it by hand, but not as fast as in video

[@RayValdezPhotography]

it depends on your computer. I have a new computer that an i9 and it is much faster than my i7 laptop. most of the plugins are about 10 seconds.

[@victorizer1984]

Or simply use generative fill 😅

[@SangHendrix]

I'd love to see if it can do that.

[@nightthemoon8481]

​@@SangHendrix easily, even content aware fill probably can

[@Tirielphoto]

These plugins sometimes crushing my pc/ laptop. I've got even one win11 blue screen with an error...

[@qneqne8440]

I was looking for this video about a week ago and found that "oh no Umesh hasn't made one on this topic. Oh well", and then you go "Hold my wacom pencil"

[@donaldmfalls]

Where is the action he created for Retouch4me Mattifier workflow?

[@MaximilianonMars]

You have to download the plugin, he said that in the video. It's got a trial version and a pay version.

[@donaldmfalls]

@@MaximilianonMars no, I have download his actions before from a link he always provided. Downloading the plug-in wont come with the action. Must be separated

There should be an ai tool for this

[@testkanal5720]

I love your videos, but retouch for me is realy to expensive, even when the results are nearly perfect.

[@BobbyDotNet]

Did I make a mistake ? The website shows even with the discount retouch4me tools listed in his plugin list are $1,000 or more.
