Attached Link: Vizual Groove Neat Image Tutorial

The above link is to a tutorial for Neat Image (noise removal software) that is first rate. If you're having trouble understanding the workflow you can use with NI and your images come out too heavy handed (plasticy looking) then read this. Will give you a little better understanding of what's going on. They also have one on doing skin retouching with NI (see top of the page of the tutorial for a link to that). -=>Donald

Thank you Donald, this looks good!.....just used NI today to cut down on the noisy sky in todays gallery upload.... Haven't looked closely at that tut yet, but I've found that adjusting the sliders down to lke 70-75% helps with the plastic look factor your're talking of...

Thanks for the link Donald..:D

Thanks Donald, this is really handy ~ dare I say "neat? chuckle stuff. :-)>

Good on ya Donald...I had a look...but realize I still gotta crawl proper before I run! But, now I know what Noise is!!! SHHHHH! We Pro's gotta share our ideas...did I tell You I am now saving My Images as a Jpeg instead of an Animated Gif...kewl...Cheers!

Thanks! I use NI typically on airshow sky shots, and I'm sure this tutorial will help!
