hello,

I become crazy to click on all skies of skylum.

we have now load custom images which opens a sky from any folder with a nice preview under win10 explorer with a slider to change thumbnail size. would be better inside skylum environment but it works fine.

for unknow reasons we have now a new custom folder with a nice preview win10 explorer but we can't open from there which is ridiculous and which adds 200 skies to the standard list of skylum skies making the filter more messy and useless than before. I really don't understand the goal of this new custom folder.

so my idea would be to try to use load image on sky luminar folder instead of from the list to have a preview of their galaxy1, sunset1.3,... skies.

  Hi marc. The standard Luminar 4 skies are located in the Luminar 4 system folder. We do not recommend adding the sky images to the default skies folder.

  Location of Skies in Windows:
  C:\Program Files\Skylum\Luminar 4\profiles\SkyTextures

  Not sure if any added will still be lost when an update takes place which was one of the benefits of the last update to L4 which was done to allow a live view of the skies added by the user.

  Hi Murray, 

  If the skies are put to C:\Program Files\Skylum\Luminar 4\profiles\SkyTextures, they will be lost when you install the update. 

  This folder should not be interfered with, as putting the files there may affect the stability and performance of the software. 

  @Marc,   

  When one opens C:\Program Files\Skylum\Luminar 4\profiles\SkyTextures , there will be a list of the pre-installed skies. 

  Is your copy of Luminar installed to the default location? 

  You may try reinstalling the software and re-downloading it from here: https://l.skylum.com/luminar4_win  The folder should be available.

  Hi kate, my luminar 4 under win10 works fine and i can replace sky.

  I double checked and these are indeed in this folder. I think i was looking in luminar folder instead of profile subfolder.

  sorry !
