This privacy notice provides an overview of our commitment to privacy and describes how we collect, protect, use and share personal information collected through this site. Pearson Education, Inc., 221 River Street, Hoboken, New Jersey 07030, (Pearson) presents this site to provide information about Peachpit products and services that can be purchased through this site. At the bottom of the dialog, there’s also a checkbox that lets you turn off those little messages that appear onscreen, like “Loading” or “Assigned Keyword,” etc., along with some video option checkboxes. Or, you can do what I do: (b) leave those off, and when you want to see that overlay info, press the letter I to toggle through Info 1, Info 2, and Show Info Overlay off. So, if you think this might be handy, too, here’s what I recommend: (a) Turn off the Show Info Overlay checkbox and turn on the Show Briefly When Photo Changes checkbox below the Loupe Info pop-up menus, which makes the overlay temporary-when you first open a photo, it appears for around four seconds and then hides itself. The key part of that is “most of the time.” The other times, it’s handy. Personally, I find this text appearing over my photos really, really distracting most of the time. In the Library module’s Grid view, click on a thumbnail and press E on your keyboard to jump to the Loupe view (in the example shown here, I hid everything but the right side Panels area, so the photo would show up larger in Loupe view).Īny time you want to start over, just click the Use Defaults button to the right and the default Loupe Info settings will appear. You’ll be spending a lot of time working in Loupe view, so let’s set up a custom Loupe view that works for you. When you’re in Loupe view (the zoomed-in view of your photo), besides just displaying your photo really big, you can display as little (or as much) information about your photo as you’d like as text overlays, which appear in the top-left corner of the Preview area.

So, at that point, I felt pretty safe, but I realized that using the term “pimped” was kind of “past tense,” so I removed the “ed” and got a totally different result, which led me to a webpage with a “Pimp Name Generator” and, of course, I couldn’t leave without finding out what my pimp name would be (just in case I ever wrote a book about customizing cars or my brother’s life), and it turned out to be “Silver Tongue Scott Slither” (though personally I was hoping for something more like “Snoop Scotty Scott”). So, at this point, I wasn’t sure if using the word “pimped” would be really appropriate, so I did a Google search for the word “pimped” and it returned (I’m not making this up) more than 2,500,000 pages that reference the word “pimped.” I thought I would go ahead and randomly click on one of those search result links, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it took me to a page of totally customized cars. Navy, and asked him what it means if something is pimped and, surprisingly enough, he had an entirely different answer, but I’m not so sure our mom would be pleased with him for telling this to his impressionable younger brother). I said, “Hey, what does it mean if something is pimped?” and he said, “It means it’s been customized.” But then I called my older brother Jeff, who had spent a number of years in the U.S.

Kids these days call this “pimping” (by the way, I just checked with a nearby kid to confirm this and apparently that is correct. Photo by Scott Kelby | Exposure: 0.8 sec | Focal Length: 200mm | Aperture Value: f/22Ī great name for this chapter would have been “Pimp My Ride” (after the popular MTV show of the same name), seeing as this chapter is all about customizing Lightroom 4 to your own personal tastes.
