Eric,
I agree about this being a sticky.
Have you PM'd guardian, the FM moderator of this forum, to see if it is possible?

Great thread, with, I assume, more updates in our processes and more additions from other members as times goes on. Thanks for starting this and to everyone for sharing so generously.

Wow! Eric thanks for starting this and bumping ever so often. Wouldn't have known it was here without the recent bump. Currently my process is simple, which is odd since my roots are in B&W film:

* Shoot Raw
* Import into Aperture
* Do basic cropping, sharpening etc. in Aperture
* Call SilverEfex plug-in for basic B&W conversion
* Effects very but I'm quite fond of "high structure" and several of the older film grains.
* Output varies, most often to web but a fair amount of printing with a i9900.

I pm'd him a while back, but he didn't respond. I guess I can pm him again.

Out of curiosity, has anyone tried e-mailing Guardian? If he doesn't look at the forum regularly and has it set not to email him when there is a PM to him, he won't know about the PMs for awhile. If his email address is current in the forum registration, he will receive the email immediately.

Of course, he may not check his email regularly either.

Just a suggestion.

Good suggestion.
Want to go for it?
I'm thinking he will probably need to know that there are a significant nuimber of FM'ers requesting the sticky. The more voices, the better.

I'm not a great choice to do this, since I've never posted a B&W image to the forum... well maybe that makes me a better choice, since I have a huge amount to learn. I will email him today.

We should just flood him with emails, or maybe shoot a PM to Fred Miranda

I use the regular conversion a lot, but for sepia toning I use the Color Overlay setting with a dark sepia color and adjust the opacity as needed.
I do save my settings, but they are usually just a starting point.
You can have a nice effect as well if you do some blurring of your image and set the blending mode to Overlay ( again adjust Opacity as needed)
If you want I can send you some of my settings.

It seems that the moderator here is now Fred himself. Has anyone emailed him to request making this thread sticky? If not I will do so.
