Sky Replacements - Ability to add skies to standard skies

Hello,

 

Loving the sky replacement feature so far.  I would like to suggest that instead of only being able to load one custom user sky at a time that you can instead add a whole set/library of skies to the pre-loaded skies that come with Luminar 4.  That way we wouldn't have to go back into our files and find a different sky to try out each time, we can just quickly select it from the dropdown.  Maybe creating submenus/folders for sky replacements within the dropdown would be best?  I have like 100 other skies in my library and would love to access them easily.

 

Thank you!

  Nevermind, I sort of solved this myself.  All you need to do is find the sky replacements folder within the files for Luminar itself and then add the skies you want to that.  Upon reopening the program will then show the new skies.  Still think it might be a good idea to show sub-folders tho!

  I'm on PC.  On the PC its in Skylum>Luminar>profiles>sky textures>

  Maybe it's the same for Mac?  Make sure to put all the JPGs in this folder specifically, don't create subfolders, the program wont read them.

  Hi Joel, 

  That's a great suggestion - I'll share it with the development team. 
  
  As for the workaround you've found, we wouldn't recommend adding skies to the program folder as it can lead to stability issues.

  I wish such tweaks were done by UI ande Luminar developers and not by enthusiastic and creative users.
