Lightroom, Storage Space, and Big Catalogs

Matt Kloskowski posted a commentary about LR, storage space, and big catalogs. The issue of large catalogs in LR and a gazillion photos spread over stacks of DVDs and BRs or possibly several external harddrives is a problem many of us face. Many of us face it with Photoshop, too. Do you keep everything and have more and more to try and keep organized? Do you "show discipline" as Matt suggests and throw away many shots that have one or more problems?

Bittbox is another favorite source for textures, brushes, and other artistic tools. They've added a set of textures made with the Photoshop Difference Clouds filter. You might be able to use these for some grungy photo effects.

Quick Tip: Multiple Versions for Lens Profiles

When you create lens profiles, you need separate versions for RAW and non-RAW files. The Lens Profile pop-up menus in Photoshop CS5, Camera Raw 6, and Lightroom 3 will automatically display the profile appropriate to the image's file type.
