I use Photoshop Elements and have very good luck just using the "Remove Color Cast" tool. Although, sometimes you have to select different points in the image to get the result you want. But, since I don't know what I'm doing, it works well for me.

To save dark areas in the image, I make a duplicate layer (using a mask) and then "screen" the layers. This can be a lifesaver at times.

I agree - go for it. The other post is right on the mark...find a colour you like and then choose the next lighter shade. Yes, do 2 test patches - one by the window and one on the other side of the room. I would be most inclined to look at the off-white section of the fan deck for a colour.

I can just imagine how disruptive it would be to have the person in the middle have to get up from the table. I'll keep my chair, thanks.

Ooooo, pretty. This is my fav, so far. Great job.

If I lived here, I would move the office to where the dining table is. Since there is bar seating at the kitchen, I would eat there and keep the bedroom a sanctuary without any office stuff. That's just me and my feelings.

I'm a big fan of the light-alarm. I have the Moonbean alarm clock and find I don't hit Snooze when I wake up to a light instead of a noisy alarm.

I wonder if they had to get a building permit for this. Our city loves to slap fines on people who do creative things for their children.

I had people just give us gift card or certificates for stores were would actually use...Amazon, Crate&Barrel, REI. We are older and already have everything we could need so we kept it simple. Our guests appreciated the convenience and we get to buy fun stuff like books, music and dvds. Plus, the Amazon gift certificate doesn't expire so we use that as a little emergency fund...like when the circular saw broke and we needed another.

How about some track lighting on a dimmer to add some interest and highlight your art?
