To find free resources for grunge frames, or overlays, simply search "free photoshop grunge frames." I recommend using the word Photoshop in the search as these sorts of layer effects have been used with Photoshop for years and years, while Luminar Neo layers have only been available a short time. You'll need a .PNG file (transparency)

Thank you Darlene. Well done.
Thanks so much
Thanks very much, Darlene. This tutorial was really helpful for me as I have struggled with understanding layers in Neo.
Excellent glad it helped.
This is an exellent walkthrough of how to use layers. Very easy to follow and very informative. The textures in particular shows that there is much more to it than just adding the texture itself. Thanks for sharing these tips and advice
Glad you liked it!
Great Info! I'm a new sub. Thanks!
Thanks for the sub!
Outstanding! Gonna save this tut. Keep up the great work.
Glad it helped! And I go into a LOT more detail and examples in my course and you get my raw files to use to follow along!
So Helpful.
Glad you think so!
Great examples! Easy to understand for those switching from other editing software.
Great to hear!
This is one of the best tutorials I’ve seen on layers. Thank you. It will make my time with NEO that much less frustrating.
You're very welcome
By the way if you want more I have a full course on Neo. The link is in the video description
Hi! Darlene. I love your tutorials . They are so easy to understand. I have a question about using a Calibrite ColorChecker Passport for White Balance and Colour correction on my photos and then applying it on Luminar Neo which I currently use. Is this possible and if so could you please explain how it's done? Thanks.
Unfortunately Luminar does not handle professional color management. You can set your monitor to the calibrated profile. That's it
I only have Iluminar on my Mac for a week. I watch your videos and they’ve been very helpful.
I’ve used Lightroom for a long time and I find Iluminar is much more friendly and adaptive. Looking forward to watching your other videos.
Do you have to add textures to the library one at a time?
Excellent yes it is more user friendly. Yes as of now you need to add textures one at a time
Thank you for this tutorial. Is it possible to create a mask on one layer and copy it to another?
No unfortunately there isn't a copy and paste for masks on layers - yet. I'm hoping that add that in the next update
Very good
Thanks glad you liked it! Were you able to guess the answers to some of the questions?
How do you save an edit so that you can return to the photo later and make further adjustments or add more layers? Many thanks.
Hi there--thanks for the detailed layers tutorial! Is there a layer/s that simply present a blurred effect in the background???
Thx in advance.
No not really. You could export the image as a jpg. Then add it as a new layer and blur it, then mask the subject out. Or if it's a portrait use Portrait Bokeh AI
@@DigitalPhotoMentor Thx! If I create and export my own layer image as a jpg to use to blur the background in my dog photographs, to where exactly do I export it and how? I have Luminar Neo 1.1.0. I'm just getting up to speed with Luminar Neo and would very much appreciate your help! ☺
@@gp-vk3je You just add it as a new layer as in the video on this page. If you want it to replace the background you'll have to do that manually because the auto mask AI currently only works on humans
I took a bunch of musician photos back in the day on B&W film. Since it was available light I did a lot of fast film and push processed. Great images but very grainy. Do you have any techniques to soften or remove the grain without softening the image?
I would actually embrace it. Film grain is very nice and Luminar Neo even has a tool to add that effect. I would run with it and enhance it instead. But that's my personal preference. If you want to remove it try the new DeNoise extension.
Dear Mrs. Darlene
I have been a long time subscriber to your channel. I see the Tutorials on You Tube translated into Spanish with a Google Chrome-Speak program, since my knowledge of English is very basic.
My question is: If I buy your Luminar Neo course, these would be direct and therefore, how would I translate your voice, either in Spanish or French to make my notes and apply them to my Luminar Neo in Spanish, which I have already installed. Thanks for your reply
Hola! Hmm no lo se. Recomiendo comprar y probarlo. Entonces, si no funciona voy a darte un reembolso. Y hablo español más o menos y puedes escribirme en español si tengas unos preguntas
With more, better tutorials such as this - simple, clear and concise, Neo has the possibility of becoming a real photo processing app to rival the best. More improvements and additions are required, but Skylum's on the right path. I just hope they continue with Neo and don't suddenly introduce another version, which would be a disaster. When I think Neo's 'there' I will switch over and stop using version 4.3.
Thanks. I do think this is the way to go.
Hello i have a question, i am having a hard time using layers, when i click on the image i used for layer nothing happen. can you tell me what i did wrong please?
Really hard to tell without seeing. Check the layer blend mode and opacity
@@DigitalPhotoMentor the problem is it don't apply when I click on the layer
@@minrorotololo Sorry I really can't answer without seeing it. I'd suggest contacting Skylum support@skylum.com
How do you compress all of the layers into one?
There isn't a way to do that currently, but why do you need to?
@@DigitalPhotoMentor If you are using NEO as a plugin from lightroom ?
@@martyzechman2793 When you click APPLY it will save a new TIF and take you back to Lightroom. All the layers will then be merged and not kept.
@@martyzechman2793 BUT if you go to PS first like I showed you in the course, as a Smart Object - then to Luminar Neo - you can save it and gave back to Neo layers and all later if you need to
Why does Luminar use rounded corners on previews and images in your library including when you're editing? It just bothers me I think they should be as is (squared).
No idea sorry. You'd have to ask them. I honestly didn't notice it
Can layers be used to remove light stands, soft box, etc; and if so, do you cover this is your Luminar Neo course?
No that's not what layers are for. So no I don't cover that. To remove things use the Erase tool
Thank you ! Appreciate the response. I've seen this done in Photoshop, but I only use Luminar.@@DigitalPhotoMentor
Like your videos, but I don't always get to apply what you've taught immediately. It would be great if at the video's conclusion, or even in comments you have a checklist of the steps. That way we can take a screen grab instead of having to rewatch the whole video.
Some of my videos have chapters or subtitles. That might help

Bokeh? Like overlays
bokeh ofcourse
You use bokeh layers?
