Lightroom Forums

Lightroom Tips & Tricks posted by Gurus and Moderators.

This forum covers the mechanics of the application, rather than the use of its tools, so post here about installation, upgrades, speed issues and crashes, and problems like "Lightroom won't open".

The practicalities of managing or organizing your photos in Lightroom, including using Import, Catalogs, Library module, Metadata, Map module, and moving to a new computer.

Want to swap ideas about the ideal workflow? That might include file organization, backup plans, keywording strategies, and so forth. This is the theory, whereas Managing your Photos is the practicality of using the tools.

Discussion focused on editing your photos within the Develop module. (External Editors go in Extending Lightroom).

Getting your finished photos out of Lightroom, whether by Export, Email, Publish Services, or using the Book, Slideshow, Print, or Web modules goes in here.
