I suppose,(but dont know), that the edit instructions are still saved in LR. Do I lose anything by just deleting them all?? thanks I know this is a stupid question, but is there a reason to save the psds at all?

I have several GBs of RAW+JPEG files where I would like to keep the JPEG but delete the RAW and I'm just too lazy to go through all my folders and root them out. Is there a quick way to knock this out in Lightroom? Thanks.

Cheers. sorry… forgot to add that you then need to right click (ctrl click on a mac) on a photo once you have selected the photos you wish to delete, then select SHOW IN FOLDER IN LIBRARY, then you can delete the photos.

Not sure if that was already mentioned above... I am running for a flight and just wanted to add my 2¢ worth. Thanks for all the tips Matt, all of them always make me think of new ways to improve my lightroom-ness.

I am waiting for Lightroom to arrive in the post so I havent used it yet but I have tried to follow everything that you and Scott have said and written. My question is.. in what format do I save what I want to keep? Is it DNG or do I make a PNG or JPG and save that? I have been saving all my DNG files on a backup disk and saving my layered PSDs as well (but what my D300 takes can easily turn into about 100mbs with a few layers added) Thanks. Thanks Matt.

It only happened if I was in Photoshop and I clicked yes when asked if I wanted to save. Then when I updated to 2.2, it went back to automatically creating the file. I wish there was a way to go back so it wouldn't create that file. Lightroom 2 didn’t automatically create the .psd/.tiff file.

But clicking in the right place I only saw JPEG Raw and TIFF. All of which I made myself. Does this mean I'm not getting PSDs created automaticlly or is it creating a different fle for me?

I have LR1 and cannot find anything that is in this instruction. When I hit backslash nothing happens. So I clicked on Metadata at the top of the screen and nothing close to camera or date appear.( I also tried to free up space in preferences under file handling as seen in video on a pod cast but nothing is there as in the video.) So, how do you do this in LR1? HELP!! I have LR1 and cannot find anything that is in this instruction. When I hit backslash nothing happens.
