Hello all. I would like to get multiple versions of an image into one photoshop file. For example, I’d like to have the following all in one file:
* Adjustment layer set for B&W version (Russell Brown method) * Adjustment layer set for color version
* Adjustment layer set for sepia-toned using Colorize box on Hue/Sat version * Adjustment layer set for Duotone version
Plus:
* An 8×10 flattened, USM’d final version of the B&W one * A 13×19 flattened, USM’d final version of the Duotone
I’ve figured out how to do most of this. The problem is with versions that require a mode change (duotone), or an image size change. I think both of these will apply to everything in the file which I don’t want.
So, Photoshop gurus, is there a way to do this? Why would I want to? Because it would be really nice to have everything in one file, rather than wonder 6 months from now, which layer sets produced which separately save files.
Plus I could do things like move layers around to other image versions if I change a layer 6 months from now and like it better. Then I could produce a new 10×13 and compare it directly to my old 10×13 that is in the same file.
Thanks for any ideas on this.
