[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Every photo that I edit is exported as both a tiff (or psd with layers) in my permanent file and as a watermarked jpeg in my "for the web" file. I may save several different edits in different sizes, depending on the project. The originals are always archived on my hard drives. This is why I have 33 external hard drives hooked up to my computer and about that many duplicates stored off-site. I don't anticipate ever doing away with LR, but if I did, I still have all copies of my files, original and edited, on my hard drives, not in the cloud.
