Ahh, I understand. Now I think the most saturated option may be the way to go. And I do think it would be better to create a new layer in the existing image instead of a separate one. Then one could use the opacity level to do fine tuning as you suggest. The down side to this is if one wanted to use this script in a batch mode. Then the required user intervention would be not be desirable. In that case, a level option (either through a slider or as you currently have it) would be better. > > Step 4) lets you control the amount of saturation you want to > add to the photo.
