Great video, Todd. I’ve mostly been using TK for the web sharpening, but you have encouraged me to expand my use. Thanks!
Great rundown. I’ve used TK for over a year now and picked up a few new tricks. Thanks!
what a video. Great job Todd, I love it a lot. Very helpful.
Finally purchaced the plugin after I saw this video go up, thanks for all you do!
Thank you for a really concise and informative video. I've just started using TK9 and finding it incredibly useful. Unlike many plugins it is modestly priced and superb value.
Great video, thank you! Love to see more TK8 tutorials.
Very helpful and informative! Thank you so much Todd! God bless and good luck!
Hi Todd, Jose from Puerto Rico. Very nice tutorial on TK8. I've been using this plugin for quite some time and it is awesome. I've tried other luminosity panels and this one is my go to panel. There's something about it that just works the way my brain does and I find it intuitive even though at first glance, it might appear intimidating. The other one I've used is Lumienza, but I keep gravitating to this one because I find it easier for me to use. The creator of this panel has great videos on how to use it and every Friday, Dave Kelly, another TH-camr goes in length on how to use the plugin's features. It would be nice if you can incorporate more videos showcasing how you use it in your photos and we can all learn. Again, great video!
Fantastic! I'll explore some of the features you highlighted that I haven't used much.
Useful summary thanks!
Id never heard of TKactions- looks great! thanks
Todd I really appreciate your videos/training chanel! I will buy TK plug-in right now. Thank you!!
Thanks for intro. Just bought TK9 and loving it. Not sure why it took so long. Can you do a video on your PS and TK workspace. Really seems an intuitive way of setting it up.
Superb video!
My first time watching one of your videos, and it was great! Thank you. I have been an avid user of Tony's panels for a long time, and you explained some of my favorite features really well.
Thanks so much!
I'm brand new to Tk8 and just stumbled upon this video and I found it very helpful. I like your teaching style. I was wondering if perhaps you already have a basic tutorial for using Tk Lum for dodging and burning, specifically with a brush. If not, would you consider making one, please? Tk Lum for Dummies? Thanks again! Subscribing now.
Hi Todd, have been using TK8 for a few months now and your video has given me tons of work. I look torward to your next work. Sorry for the English=translations 🤔
Hi Todd: Thank you so much for creating and sharing this video. I have been using TK Panels for several years. I particularly liked your explanation of how to effectively use the Saturation & Vibrance masks. It never really much sense to me until seeing your video. Great content! Are you considering doing some more videos on how you use TK8 in your post-processing routines? Cheers, Keith
Glad you liked it! I will certainly consider making more in the future.
Great video and it seems like a great product. It realy makes me want to use PS more instead of LR , I will for sure make a buy and use your promo code as well. Thanks!
Hi Todd, thanks for a great, to the point, video. I am using TK8 myself and I have been watching some other tutorials. Unfortunately there are only few really good videos on TH-cam. Mostly videos from people who are horrible photographers, who use TK8 to destroy their images, rather than enhancing them. It feels like they use everything in TK8 in 1 picture, just because they can.
I am sure there are a lot of TK8 users, like myself, that would highly appreciate more videos from you on this topic!
Great feedback - thanks so much!
I would also like to see Todd do more videos on the TK actions!!
More TK8 please.
Great video although I would love to see a dedicated tutorial on Web sharpening alone. If you have the time to make one video I will greatly appreciate it 🙏
Nice review on TK8. Looks very interesting. Seems like a lot of us could use something like this.
Do you have 2 or 3 [hopefully more] of your own videos where you use TK8 a great deal to do various 'corrections' when you do a full edit.
I believe a lot of us [just subscribed] of your 50K viewers would like to see the TK8 Actions Panel, in action [use] in more then one video. You then explain why you are using TK8 at that point, and how to use it to correct some area of a image; such as shadows, highlights, color, etc. These videos don't have to be a tutorial entirely on TK8, but hopefully a significant portion as you use Photoshop and other programs. Thanks Todd.
Ohhhh that would be great!
Just got the Combo package - Used your code - Thank you! I'm only as good as my ability to bail myself out of photoshop, hopefully this helps.
Enjoy!
Thanks
Cheers!
Can you share your actions for creating images for Instagram and Facebook?
web sharpen tool has one minor inconvenience, if you export once, make any additional adjustments or crop the same image and export again, it will overwrite the first export, I wish it would remember previous exports and add a digit or a letter (automatically rename) to any additional exports. I wonder if Tony can find a workaround for this.
What colour profile you use on your photoshop while using TK Actions?
I think you have mixed up your luminosity masks and zonal masks...
Nicely done.
you know, sometimes you have to ask yourself, why some of these no brainer plugins aren't just built into photoshop itself
Hah - I know! I’m surprised Adobe hasn’t done more with masking in Photoshop. They seem more interested in AI these days.
