Hi Andreas, I suppose that you ask your question to me? I use Photoshop & Painter for postworking. In Photoshop, I only do 'adjust levels' (a histogram stretch in PSP as I know this is what you use), 'adjust variations' and 'unsharp mask' in Photoshop. These ones are easy to do as I always follow a same recipe. For the rest I use Painter. One of Painter features is scripting. So, I always keep a script of my postprocessing. This way, if I change dimensions of my original fractal image, I still have a trace of what to do after in this software. But the big secret if you want to make large prints is planning large from the beginning. Adjustment is easier if you start from large then reduce than the opposite. Miche
