Not trying to thread jack here but what rda is that? I'm assuming mutation x but I could be wrong.

If it's a x v4 how old is it? Cause the paint looks good, mine is a little over a month and it's starting to loose paint. Thinking about polishing stainless steel cause ocd.

Well my mutation leaks like a bastard unless you're creative with how you drip, does that leak much?

The only leaking I'm getting is my own error. I'm bad to slightly exhale into the top before I push the button and inhale. And that only after filling the juice well. I'm an impatient vaper. Cotton can't keep up lol.
Very very solid RDA! I love it.

Can anybody following this thread give me some editing tips or have I been doing good? Rate me overall 1-10. I am working on graphic design so I'd love some input, besides needing a better camera.

Vignettes are your best friend for edits. Brings the attention front and center. I use it in all my edits. Best advice I can give.

The program used for editing also is a big help, Ive never been a big fan of the clustered Photoshop CS line, I prefer Corel since its much easier and less of a learning curve for a new editor.

I'm thinking about getting into the law of thirds which will make a vignette attract attention away from the subject but I did post a picture with one earlier that turned out great in my opinion. Thanks for the tip.

I've been doing photo editing and video editing with Photoshop and after effects for about 6 years now. Gimp for 10. However I've never tried Corel, I'll check it out.

All my pictures on this thread are just various iPhone apps that are some of the highest quality I've seen. Mainly use the photoshop and enlight apps. Thanks though.

I don't have an IG. I really should get one. I never heard about it till I started seeing all the jokes about the food picture fad and I was pretty much turned away by that.

Yes the food is a bit much, but following vendors they post deals and giveaways. I use mine exclusively for vaping. So my feed is either coil builds or juice vendors. Lol
If you enjoy builds and editing I recommend it. @ DaBuddhaVapes got me into it.

Not sure if yours is the same problem as mine was, but if you position your coils a little inward from the airflow holes and drip to the inside of the wick, the leaking problem goes away.

I position my coils slightly inward (not directly over the airflow) like this:

Yeah, I keep mine close to the posts and let the air wrap around the outside of the coils. That had helped with a lot of my issues with the rda.

Haha, I hate using arbitrary number systems. I think you're doing alright though. Not much to really comment on specifically.

One rule I live by when it comes to editing is subtlety in effects. I'm not talking about doing very little, as you can see from my image that I like to do heavy manipulation. Use effects in such a way that when someone looks at the finished product, they can't tell what exactly you did. What effects you use to spruce up an image shouldn't be obvious - they should be organic. They're accents, not features.

Rather than being an image with such and such effect added to it, it should be such and such image because of the way the combination of effects meshes with it. Play around with stuff that's really only obvious through and A/B comparisons and build on it. Combine different subtle effects to produce one more prominent one rather than using one trick to quickly produce the desired effect. That sort of nuance is what separates the amateurs from the pros.

Hopefully that makes sense. It's difficult to explain. It's sort of like how in music, composition is about the notes you choose not to play.

I've been using Photoshop since before the CS days. Illustrator since the CS days. I will admit, it's the most difficult to learn. But it is, hands-down, the most powerful. That's why it's an industry standard

Hmm. I love the detail you gave. I might add illustrator to my list of programs to use. I edited all these on my smart phone without filters, just using basic effects to make them so over all I'd think I'm adhering to that.

Sorry @CrazyChef for hijacking the thread.
