Re: Update: Lighting Setup Artwork
Here's a couple that takes the concept one step further. I used Photoshop's animation feature to create these continuous animated flash files with the setup, photograph of the setup and image taken with setup.

Re: Update: Lighting Setup Artwork
Didn’t read this whole thread, but I doubt anyone asked this question. Hope not. If so, point me to the page.
Is there any way to use this with Paint Shop Pro?
How about PSE 2.0?

Re: Update: Lighting Setup Artwork
Kevin,
These are great...
What's the scoop on using these to create teaching materials?
I currently building lessons to start teaching photography and these would be so good to use.

Re: Update: Lighting Setup Artwork
Would be great to print out a bunch of these things, cut them out and attach them to rubber magnetic sheets like a refrigerator magnet, then use a magnetic board with a grid and stick the symbols where you want them. Would be a great training aid or used for instructions to assistants. Make some notes magnets you can draw on with a white board marker and clean off when you are done.
There is a good product for you Kevin. You could be the photo lighting magnet king! ;)

Re: Lighting Setup Tools
I just found this.. very nice. It appears if you select the object in layers you can rotate it and move it with the move tool, and free transfrom. Just begining to play around with it my self

Re: Lighting Setup Tools
Kevin, it looks good. Is it just for mac's. I have downloaded it to my sony laptop with PS elements 3 and can't get anything to work? It shows up in elements and has the listing on the right, but can't get lights or anything over to the graph.

Re: Lighting Setup Tools
You have to open the folders up and turn on the layers you want to show. If you want a softbox open the folder in the layers pallet labeled softboxes. Then select the style of softbox you want and unhide that layer to reveal it on the diagram.

Re: Lighting Setup Tools
Thank you everyone for your kind emails and posts. I have updated the file (v1.1) and will continue with your suggestions... I'll post all updates on the original post. Can't say I agree with the Napster remark but I appreciate the thought Ron.
To simplify things... I will edit the OP so new viewers won't have to read through this whole thread to gain information. I'll include the instructions, restrictions and a sample there.
I've decided not sell the Illustrator art cause my intentions are to supply a FREE tool for everyone to share their ideas. No more, no less. I just don't want to complicate things by having original vector art out there on the web. Hope that's understandable :)
Cheers all!
Kevin
