  1. Firstly, Thanks folks, very useful answer (As per usual in this forum). So time for the second silly question then.... lets say I have achieved the look I was after by using the LUT and then doing some other tweaks via the develop/Tone Mapping persona etc... Is there a way to save ALL of these adjustments including the application of the LUT so that it will be possible to apply it more quickly to future photos or for example I have 200 plus photos I want to have the same effect, how can I re-create it across all the images without starting the process from scratch? Cheers Mark
  2. I am just going through their website now. Certainly looks like what I am trying to achieve. I have never used 3rd party applications/software with AP though so I am slightly unsure as to how to apply it at the moment... Need to brush up on using plug-ins etc. Many thanks for this though
  3. Hi Verysame, I assume that is just a LUT plug in? looks great. I will look at trying that shortly. Thanks again Mark
  4. Hi Folks, I'm after some help again.... So I really admire two very very good automotive photographers... Amy Shore and Laurent Nivalle. Both have a similar(ish) style and this extends to their editing process. I have read numerous interviews with both of them and they both mainly use Photoshop (Sorry to swear!) rather than lightroom and I am very keen to try and re-caprture their respective styles but by using Affinity Photo. I have attached two files which are photos from both Laurent and Amy respectively. Can anyone out there point me in the right direction to try and obtain the same style? Obviously I don't want to be copying their styles out right as that is not what photography is all about but I am very curious as to how to achieve this. Thanks folks, hope you can help. Regards Mark All credit for the attached two images go to Amy and Laurent.

  6. Ive just had the following reply from the Affinity guys on Twitter... From @AffinitybySerif - "No updates at the moment, when we have more information we'll let everyone know" I would read in to that... "Not anytime soon so stop asking" lol Pains me to do it but I have just downloaded Adobe Bridge
  7. I have noticed that things have gone very quiet on this DAM front? any update ???
  8. Hi folks, Sorry if this has already been requested, I couldn't find a thread showing that it had so hopefully I am not duplicating. Are there any plans to introduce a feature to Affinity Photo (Or even create a stand alone app) that would offer the same workflow management that Lightroom (Sorry I know it's a swear word) has? I would love to use Affinity Photo as my go to software for all my photo edit work but it would be handy if I could arrange and sort all of my shots from a shoot within Affinity Photo and not have to use a third party app to manage them such as the Macs native photos app etc. It would also be VERY handy to be able to apply edits across multiple photos at the same time. Cheers folks Mark
  9. Hi Toltec, Thats a good point, I didn't even notice the file size to be honest but I have just checked and yes the Van PSD file is actually 219mb in total! Not exactly sure why. I've found a smaller alternative now which I have attached, sorry. Cheers for pointing that out though Mark free_download_mini_van__by_rogeriomarcos-d7aaz4g.psd
  10. Hi Folks, I'm after some help again. I created a very simple and basic logo design in affinity designer and I now want to use a PSD mockup of a van I have and put my design over top of that to show it on the van. I have opened up the Mock up van and my design both in Affinity Photo but the next bit is where it all goes wrong. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the overlay right. I know I will need to use a mask but I really am not very clued up with using them. Can anyone help? Thanks again Mark Oh yeah... Ive attached my two files BCL Colour .psd GemGfx_Vehicle_Branding_Mockup.psd
  11. Hi Guys, Are there any plans to produce a photo management app... such as "cough" lightroom etc? Regards Mark
  12. Hi Folks, Do you mean something along these lines? Mark
  13. Hi Folks, Attached is a work in progress art deco air show poster I am putting together. I have never been the artistic type so I am struggling with coming up with a suitable way to add shading to the plane. As you can see there are 3 planes on my poster (There will only be one in the end) each one is an option I am looking at. 1 is white with no shading but I think it looks too clinical. 2 is one with a grey gradient added and 3 is a white one with a further black layer added over the top with the opacity reduced and with the noise increased. I'm not happy with any of them if I am honest. Is there anyone out there that can offer some advice? Cheers folks Mark SGA Poster v1.0.afdesign SGA Poster v1.0.pdf
  14. Hi Alfred, I thought I had solved this but it appears that I haven't. So this is where I am at with it. 1> Created two separate inverted triangle shapes. 2> Selected both and used the "add" tool in the top tool bar to add them together. 3> The option to "covert to curves is greyed out" so I am not able to do that. 4> When I select the node tool and try to grab the centre (Which is a blue square) it just moves one portion of one of the triangles. I've attached two images to try and show what I mean. Every day is a learning day :blink: Mark
  15. Hi Jer, Thanks for that, I had just figured that bit out. Thanks for replying though. This forum saves me some days. Cheers Mark
  16. Hi Folks, Symmetry question. I don't quite get use snapping tool/guide. I find it hit and miss, probably because I am not using it property I suspect. Some times I get the nice green lines showing that I have lined up one of my shapes nicely with another and yet other times I get nothing?? Any ideas what I am doing wrong with this? Short on info there I know but If you need more let me know. Cheers Mark
  17. Hi Guys, Sorry for the late reply but Ive been away. Thanks for the suggestions but I am still have some trouble. I created the two smaller triangles using the triangle shape tool. When I select the node tool it doesn't give me an option to play around with the triangle shapes. There is no option to grab the individual nodes. Am I missing something glaringly obvious here? Cheers Mark
  18. Hi Folks, I have created a shape (Basically a large triangle) and I need to make it look more like a mountain top so I want to create sort of a snowy peak to the top. I have tried to create this using two smaller inverted triangles but I need to remove the baseline. How would I go about ding this or does anyone have a suggestion of another way I could create this? Me being new and all. I have attached a screen shot to hopefully help explain what I am after. Thanks folks Mark
  19. Hi Folks, More of a general question to put out there tonight. How do I make sure the shape/object/image I am creating is symmetrical? I have used the pen tool to create a shape I was after but I need to make sure it is symmetrical. How would I go about doing this? is there any option to see this? plus then I want to insert other shapes inside my main shape but I want to make sure they are lined up perfectly with certain sections of the original shape. Is there an option somewhere to assist with this? Random I know but just a general question that has been bugging me lately. Cheers folks Mark
  20. So I've just brought the new AD work book and I love it, so well put together. One question though, how do I access the resource files? Mark
