Say I want to use more than one preset on an image..how do I go about doing this. It seems to change to the new preset instead of adding to it??

If I was just looking in for the first time I would be wondering what the heck is a preset? So how do you use a preset for?
Maybe this will help get something going here.

Tina, in LR and Arc there is a preset tab..it has some that come with LR and then there are a ton that you can download..the presets are like little actions that change the colors or feel of the image. I will post a before and after so you can see what I am taking about. The only thing I did to this image was apply a preset.

I am using PSE5 and from your post I was not sure what you were using for a program. So presets are something that you have in LR and ARC. I can guess that LR is Light room but No guess as to what ARC is.
Looks like something pretty neat to have and would make changing a photo quicker.

Sorry Tina, I should of been better at explaining. ARC is camera raw which you also have in elements.

Never mind Suzi. I got it. Now to try and add one.

Kimi, I'm here if you have trouble adding one. Are you wanting to import one that you downloaded?

I can help also. Kimi, what was the problem you fixed, it would be nice to know in case I run into the same thing??

Dang, Chuck I keep calling it the wrong thing
