Ack- I'm DYING. The links aren't working on the posts below! Probably just my computer, right? Grr.

Okay- the photo effect I use most often is for a soft filter look. I figured it out, but I'm sure most people know how to do it.

I just copy the layer, put a pretty thick gaussian blur on the top one, take down the opacity to the level of softness I want, and then mask out the parts I want sharper.

There's probably a more technical way to describe it, but there you go. ;D

Thank God you are going to continue with your tutorials. I have learned so much from you and been so happy about what I can do now. :)

I do the same thing as Summer, but I add one more step. I call it my "wedding look". Before you take down the opacity of the blurred out layer, I like to change the curves to give it more contrast, usually making the lights significantly lighter. It tends to be just right when it is a little over what your maximum threshold for a normal photo would be. Then mess with the opacity and you get a nice ethereal look.
