As our colour correction policy outlines, when you order Full Colour Service we colour-correct your images so as to optimise natural skin-tones and achieve consistency across all the images in the album. However, if you run Photoshop actions or add special effects/tones to your images and the desired effect differs from these guidelines, we'd ask that you leave a quick note on your order to let us know, so we don't undo the work you've done on them. It's easy to leave notes in Photojunction: - Add notes to specific apertures by right-clicking on an image and selecting the 'Add/Edit Aperture To View More >>

You'll know all about EXIF data... That information your camera stores about your images. Well it's especially important when comparing images. And since you probably do a lot of 'comparing' in Photojunction, your image's EXIF data is available to view from within the Event window. Simply select an image, and click the EXIF Data tab in the navigation bar on the left to display its information (they must be linked to the high-res originals). You can also sort images in the Event window using EXIF tags. Very handy. Cheers, Nigel Discovered this handy hint buried in the drafts (thanks Nigel, gone To View More >>
