postauthor's postI used <a href='http://www.lucisart.com' target='_blank'>the LucisArt Photoshop plugin</a>. <br /> I was going for that illustrated look, trying it by hand and not getting there. But within 10 minutes, I had what I wanted with LucisArt. It gives images a nice pop by drawing out details from shadows and then enhancing those details a bit more. Like an HDR effect on steroids.<br /> It&#39;s already a bit of a cliched look if you frequent any Photoshop retouching forums, but to the general public, it&#39;ll still be fairly fresh. It gives several different looks AND it works with Photoshop 5.5.<br /> I used a bit of the Sculpture and Exposure settings to get what I wanted. I may also have denoised the image first, as people have said that will generally give more pleasing results. <br /> <a href='http://www.lucisart.com/Gallery_Duenkel1.htm' target='_blank'>This</a> gallery opened my eyes a bit when I saw what was possible with the plugin.<br />-z
