Well it’s happened. Change is here and I think it’s for the better. The overall look of the site is much improved, navigation is cleaner, and the editing tools are better than ever. Photo Flavors is going to operate a little differently from now and I think it’ll be better for everyone. You’ll notice there’s no more pages just for actions, presets, recipes or samples and instead are replaced with education and effects pages.
The education link comes right after the home page because I want education and helping photographers with more than just their editing to take a prominent role on this site. Over the coming weeks, I have an indepth series on Lightroom planned that I think will answer a lot of questions that some of you may have about the program. I’ll be covering pretty much everything from importing photos through creating your own presets without using Lightroom. If you have any questions about Lightroom that you want to make sure that I cover, just send me and e-mail and I’ll do my best to help you out.
There’s also a BIG reason why the Actions and Presets links have been replaced with the universal Effects page. That’s because I’ve decided not to offer actions and presets as individual products but instead to offer small editing sets that are created with a distinct editing style in mind. The sets may contain actions, presets, textures, or a combination. Not only with the sets be smaller in size and more refined in style and quality, they’ll be extremely limited in the amount that are sold. There’ll be editions between 50 and 1,500 and that’ll help make sure that your look and style stays unique to you. Once each edition is sold out, those effects will never be sold again.
Change has come and it feels like a good fit. There’s still a few more things to finish up but over the next week or so, I’ll be posting some more information about the effects, maybe a video or two for the Lightroom series, and hopefully do a complete release of the first few kinds of effects sets that are going to be offered.
Take a look around, get comfortable, and welcome to the new PhotoFlavors.com.
