Need Your Help Naming My Newest Version of PowderRoom!
>> Wednesday, September 1, 2010
Baby PowderRoom, PowderRoom 2 and Perfect Portrait are probably my most downloaded actions on this site. However, I have received so many requests to write a retouching action that is specific for darker eyes/complexions. I was excited to finally start working on this action because I am a bit tired of using my boys, chickens, weeds and dog in all of my action tutorials and screenshots. :-) You might think I don't photograph anything else... Well, you are right, I don't get out much!
I am not a professional photographer so I asked Morgan if she would send me some photos from some of her model shoots to work on so I could design the action. All of the images she sent were stunning, but this was one of my favorites.
So I am asking for name suggestions. I would love to keep PowderRoom somewhere in the name if possible, but I need a unique name that mentions that this action is great on darker skin/eyes. I already have a PowderRoom 2. And if you have a great name that doesn't use PowderRoom, that would work also! Just leave a comment below if you have a suggestion.
On a side note, my next retouching action (after this one) will be the new and improved Perfect Portrait.
