GT5 Photomode Tutorial - The Lab Method [All Secrets Disclosed]

Do you mind making the font size a little bigger on everything. It's in gray and is a harder to read font, but I think if you increase the size it will be easily readable. Right now my eyes are struggling to focus.

Edit: ok I tried everything out and it works as intended, but I have a few question for you. For the lab method couldn't you just hit hue and saturation in RGB and boost the saturation up more. I tried this and got identical results. Also I am guessing it's just your preference, but why don't you use the adjustment layers? You could easily go back and edit something if you feel it was too much.

Well, I'm not T-12, but for me it looks just a little better through the lab method.

You can but you won't get the same effect. Editing in Lab isn't about boosting the saturation, it's about defining the colors for a livelier vibrance than what the image started out as. Boosting the saturating in RGB isn't going to do anything but risk the possibility of bleeding the colors.

As for the second bit, it's just my preference not to.
