Thank you for the link, I was having lots of trouble with red-eye last night.
Can I just ask if others have a prefered method of dealing with red-eye that can-not be fixed with the auto feature?
I tried using the red-eye brush but mostly the results did not look right :confused:

Jojo,

Here are Wendy's instructions for manually removing Red Eye in PSE:

Zoom in very close and select the red area plus a few pixels beyound it ... feather a little. (you have to experiment but try 1 or 2).
Then copy it to a new layer Edit>Copy then Edit>Paste
Enhance>Colour>Hue & Sat ... select red from the edit box and reduce saturation to zero or thereabouts
Enhance>Brightness & Contrast>Levels .. move the left hand marker in about a third of the way and move the centre marker over to the right until the area goes dark ... not too far or it will look artificial.

Bayla,
Thanks for replying. I've given that a quick try and it did look a bit artificial.
I'm sure if I play around with it a bit I'll get it right.
I've printed out the instructions to stick on the wall here and I'll practice :)
