Choosing a cover for my Lightroom Profiles Starter Pack

in

Hello folks, it's been quiet on the blog but know that I am super busy with a couple of really interesting photography related projects that I hope to talk a little bit more about after the summer holidays...

In the mean time, I need your advice: now that my free Lightroom Presets (pictured above) have been downloaded over 4,000 times (get them at www.lightroomfreesets.com if you haven't already), I'm playing with the idea of offering them also - at an affordable price - as a set of Lightroom Creative Profiles for Lightroom Classic CC users. Profiles have a number of advantages over presets:

  • Profiles are applied as one of the first steps in the Develop pipeline.
  • Profiles leave the Develop sliders untouched. So you can apply them on top of any other Develop Adjustments you already have applied without them overriding those settings. They are cumulative.
  • And... this is my favourite feature: you know how often a preset will be just a tad too strong to your taste? It's not so easy to dial the effect of a preset back, especially with presets you haven't made yourself, since they can be quite complex. With a Creative Profile, you have a handy Amount slider that easily lets you scale the effect from 0 to 200 percent, simply by dragging a slider.
You can lower or strenghten the effect of a Creative Profile simply by dragging the Amount slider around...

Now... here's my questions:

  1. Do you like this idea of offering the presets as Creative Profiles?
  2. Which of the following three box shots do you prefer? (Click on a thumbnail to see it bigger)

You don't have to enter your email address to vote, but if you do, you will receive a 50 percent off discount code when the profiles become available and you might be one of three people to receive the profiles for free. Those three people will be randomly selected amongst the people who fill out this form (and fill out their email address so I can send them the prize).
