Soft proofing does not matter if you are printing your work to a professional lab. It is very true. Soft proofing is irrelevant. "Why then do so many labs make their profile available for download right from their website or from drycreekphoto.com? Are they all stupid?"
Well, no they are not stupid. Just misinformed. Publications and [...]

No, I don’t know anything about them. At all.
We looked a year and half ago or so into adding SchoolDays+ lab server software at the request of a customer. I found their SALES support to be totally lacking. They went to the trouble of sending out a demo dongle for SchoolDays+ photographer software. Then we [...]

Though I have thought about it, I cannot even estimate the number of times I have been asked why I advocate the ExpressDigital software so heavily. Feature for feature, for me and for my business, it is the best overall solution for everything that I am attempting to do. An awful lot of people agree [...]

There seems to be one theme to questions regarding the Marketing Photography Online post from the other day.
“How do I get people to give me their email address at a football/baseball/basketball/any other sporting event game?”
Here’s a thought. Set up a display. An EZ-Up tent would be nice, but take a table. Set up some product [...]

Being an ExpressDigital owner and a Labtricity lab I have no need for another solution. I am very aware however that a number of my lab customers either don't need, or don't want to [...]

I found out about Filmloop.com on the Guy Kawasaki blog. His VC firm invested in them and he made mention of them one day because of this new feature where you could enter a search term and the “loop” would download images and links from eBay based on what you entered. I thought that it [...]

OK, I assumed way too much. I AM the manager of BB Color, Inc. This part Donovan knows from previous discussion. We ARE a Labtricity partner lab. I don’t know if Donovan knew that or not. I am not the owner, an owner or anything more than just an employee of the company. I certainly [...]

We use Kodak DP2 software in the lab to manage quite a bit of the work that we do. It drives our Kodak HR500 scanner, accepts incoming work from LabPrints and soon enough ROES and also operates as our digital PVAC for color correction. It is an awful lot of money, but it does an [...]

ACDSee 5 in full screen mode is great for image editing. Full screen display is nearly instantaneous and it makes very short work of culling through hundreds and hundreds of images. I have passed on upgrading ACDSee. I don't really have a reason why. I heard of the software being full of bugs, but that [...]
