Thanks guys,

But what I need is to save manipulation steps for each image, I don't need to save the final pictures. I need to keep original all the time and produce pictures on demand in many versions. I know about actions in PS, but they are designed to automate the same manipulations to more pictures. I also know about scripting possibility, I can also do something with both, but sounds complicated. But what I want to know, is somebody knows, are there tools that do this, because I want to save time if I don't need to invent the wheel again.

Archiving the manipulation history is nice to have by product of this operation.

I know this sounds crazy, but I hope that there could be someone who can give me useful info.

Hi photo gurus,

Is anybody knows a tool or plug-in for PS or other Image GUI tool (gimp, image

magic) that can record the manipulation steps from raw till final image and

store them in a separate file to execute them latter for each raw image.

I not asking you for a macros or similar thing I want to store complete

manipulation recipe/history of a image including filters and plug-ins. The ideal

will be if those tools exists for PS, if not any other tools under Windows or

Linux will be OK.

Thanks,

Lazar

I am full time software developer, but in free time I am hobby photographer. My

ambitions is to stay in my profession, but I want to improve my photographic

skills, to make more aesthetic and better photos from the arts point of view. I

can say, I know the basic and some advance techniques, but what I am missing is

my insufficient knowledge about arts and photography as a art. I also have not

time to take some formal education, but what I am searching is to find the books

or any kind of materials that covered the university curricula about photography

to learn by myself.

I found some books on Amazon but they are mainly more technical oriented or

photographers portfolios.

Can somebody recommend me some books or other materials that covered the topics

that I require.

Thanks for your help in advance.
