just wants to rip you off.
sepia and color editing are quite basic photoshop skills to people who know the program at all.

i don't care how many other photographers rip people off as well. and yes i have photoshop and have been using it for 2+ years, i am very much into photography. i'd still rather be nice and teach them without pay, but i'm sure you'll get money out of this anyways.

so do you really think that? actually i have over 3 years experience in Photoshop and my colours are processed using a mixture of RGB curves, channel mixing, layers. If you don't know anything about actions or colour processing then you shouldn't critique someone. Do you actually use Photoshop? or for basic edits? You'll find a LOT Of photographs sell actions and a lot more expensive than me for fewer too.

that's a really easy thing to do though, you don't need to buy anything to do that.

there is this crazy guy in America that wears suits covered in question marks, that tells people how to get the government to pay for stuff. all it is, is people are buying a list of government grants that anyone could look up but people are to lazy to the sad thing is, he's made a fortune doing it. people are dumb, and other people try to pass their stuff off on the dumb to make them fee informed.
your friend is one of the smart ones ^_^ and so are you of course.

to be fair, the girl is in business and if it sells...sell it! ;) it's hard enough making money as a photographer you do it anyway you can, you'd do the same if you were planning on making a living out of it!

I think i agree with childofdoom... if she can sell it.. why not?

But it would be a whole lot nicer if their were more tutorials trying to show us how to achieve effects like that... that we didnt have to pay for.

Learning effects are easy if you fiddle with settings. For example, sepia is easily achieved by adjusting saturation levels (sponge tool) and color balance (cntrl+b.)

Many other da artists as well as google result pages offer better tutorials free.
