Is there a way to backup the arrangement of my Presets within LR? I organize my presets into several different folders (you know, Matt's Presets in one folder and everyone elses' in another!) and would like to copy this to my laptop rather than recreating it. Thanks fou your help and this great LR resource. I’m sorry if you’ve already covered this somewhere…but I can’t find it. Is there a way to backup the arrangement of my Presets within LR?

Personally I don't want to have to search through all of the blog posts to find 1 preset at a time, you could zip them all up and make it really easy for all of us to get them, then you could release by monthly packs, etc. I think you could have something a lot of people would appreciate, and sorry if this seems forwards but I think it would be a great idea for you. Keep up the great blog, I love the videos and it's great to have a Lightroom site dedicated to just that, lightroom. :) Matt, how about getting us a preset pack to download?

In Windows, I think you have to hold down the SHIFT key, not Alt, and click on the top right X of one of the images. It's been a while since I used PS, but I wrote a little tips&tricks once, and there I've got shift-click. Pretty sure I got that from PSU TV or PS Killer tips in the first place ... William Chinn:

PC's do not have that close option. You need to do a Ctl-Alt-W to close multiple images. How come there is no feedback option for PS Killer Tips? Matt, this is feedback for Photoshop Killer Tips: Closing Multiple Images. PC’s do not have that close option. You need to do a Ctl-Alt-W to close multiple images.

How come there is no feedback option for PS Killer Tips?

My brother, Steve Paterson, one of the founding partners of Clear (www.StartClear.com), a graphics design firm in Southern California, has decided to do something very special to help the victims of China’s recent earthquake. He has started www.FiftyThousandShirts.com. The goal is to sell 50,000 shirts, raising one million dollars (which will be donated through World Vision, www.worldvision.org). It would be great if you could pass on to your audience the great opportunity that this could be. Also if there is anyway you would be willing to put a banner up or know anyone who would want to you can get them off of this site: http://fiftythousandshirts.com/action/. One of the sponsors of this effort is http://RedisWhite.com. Red is White is a faith-inspired, ongoing, online t-shirt design project. Anyone can come up with a design and submit it to Red is White. The Red is White community then rates the designs and the winning designs get printed (and the designer gets paid). I think this definitely seems like something that your audience could get behind. Thank you so much for your time and consideration. Mike Paterson Hey Matt,

I totally missed that. I actually thought it was there and I went into the dialog. Having the gerbil-like attention span that I have, my eyes just saw the Reset buttons that were there and I totally missed the button at the bottom. Great comment. Thanks so much for pointing that out - I'm going to update the post right away. Matt the moron (with the gerbil-like attention span) signing off :) Mike,

From the LR edit menu, select preferences and then the presets tab. There is a button there to open the folder in Explorer. There is even a keyboard shortcut to get to the preferences . I don't have a Mac but I expect the same to be true. There is an even easier way to do this. From the LR edit menu, select preferences and then the presets tab.

Those precious presets should be backed up. In fact I have a place where I back of all this sort of thing. LR presets, PS actions, brushes ect. Keep things nice and tidy so you know where to fine them. One quick tip on finding the location of presets. You can certainly go to the dir path and find them, but I find I usually forget exactly where that is. Instead I just go to one of my presets within Lightroom and right click it. Then select "SHow In Finder (or on a PC Show in My Documents or something similar) This brings up a window already navigated to the presets. Then you can just copy that folder and back em up baby.
