What are the ranges for correct skin tones using RGB%?

What are the ranges for correct skin tones using RGB%?  Used to using a scale from 0 to 255.  But with LR it's RGB  , I know 100% RGB is white.  What do you use for %?

While I whole heartedly agree that we should not be constrained to hard and fast numbers for accurate skin tones ... LR does offer an RGB color readout ... I am assuming they made those percentages available for the user to monitor the breakdown of specific color values for a reason ... so we could have an indication of how a specific color in an image will be reproduced ...
I liken this to using a speedometer ... while many experienced drivers in well tuned vehicles can travel on the highway at the prescribed legal speed limit without really monitoring the readout on the dashboard ... however, there are times when they would like to verify the speed at which they are traveling ... the RGB color percentage readout in LR is no different ... just a source of information to verify you are achieving what you desire ...
Again, going by specific numbers in this instance, I believe, could lead to problems ... there may be times when you may desire or actually need to adjust skin tones ... even though a pleasing WB has been achieved ... the relationship of R, G and B can be used to get you there.
From what I have researched and put into practice with LR the following seems to be a good starting point and the data was borrowed from "the pixelation" blog:
R: highest %
G: middle %
B: lowest %
To get a little more specific. In general,
R: Y + (15-20)
G: average of R and B
B: R – (15-20)
For example, the following values represent common Caucasian skin tones using the rules above:
* R: 80%; G: 70%; B: 60%. R is 20 points higher than B, and G is midway between R and B. That’s perfect.
*  R: 86%, G: 78%; B: 70% also reflects a nicely balanced skin tone.  Again, G is midway between R and B, and R is 16 points higher than B. This, too, illustrates a great relationship among the colors.

  • What are the announcements for renting VPS?

    What are the announcements for renting VPS? For details, understand VPS and make the choice of rental; for Taiwan VPS and Hong Kong VPS, without records, unlimited contents, wider range, and more efficient experience. Your server will show its excellence with the advantages.
    Most station agents become less inclined to virtual hosting, for national space, domain name records are needed, which waste the time; for overseas hosting such as Korea hosting, US hosting, no records, but slower speed than national space; therefore, more and more station agents prefer servers, but because the price of servers are too high, they turn their focus on VPS.
    The following are the announcements:
    1.Open remote desktop lander:
    Start-run-mstsc or start-procedure-nearby-remote desktop connect
    2.Several conditions for account halt:
    First, client side login cause account halt
    Second, certain account quits the remote control in midway when it runs routine
    Third, certain routine is restricted by synchronous operation of system administrator.
    3. Not install the third party firewall
    If you need firewall, please use windows firewall, the third party firewall in VPS will cause system collapse and data loss, the system automatically obtains the newest windows patches and install itself, which do not require human operation. Installing system patches in VPS sometimes will heavily lead to VPS collapse and data loss.
    Do not modify remote desktop port.
    Because of the specialty of VPS system, default remote desktop port is 3389, do not modify randomly, or the remote connection will be out of work.
    4. Except some special conditions that user registration is needed for certain procedure, when the remote connection has been close down, do not forget logout user to save memory resource, and prevent the loading connection next time, if it happens, reboot VPS.
    5. VPS has been set with relative security when it was paid, with high security. It suggests that do not open firewall randomly, if you open it by your own, the following ports should be opened: 21(FTP), 3389(remote connection), 80(website http), 3306(MySQL), 1433(SQL Server). Timely check whether there is suspicious account or system log, download 360 safety guard to avoid these files and process.
    6. Try not to modify registry hand-actuated, ensure the reboot of VPS. Modify remote ports please add the modified port in firewall first, and then reboot.
    7.Modify IIS installation files, backup these files, and then modify them with the software that can keep the file layout, prevent these files from destroying IIS.
    8.Website service of VPS and FTP service of IIS are default to open hand-actuated, set Web Publishing Service as automatically if you are station agent. If you often use FTP service of IIS, please set FTP Publishing Service as automatically, i.e. reboot it automatically. If you use serv-u, tick all the system service terms. In the terms of security and resource consumption , it suggests that those users who seldom use FTP do not set it as automatically.

    Hi there
    "So for ALL the apps, the annual monthly fee is £46.88, but you can rent occasionally for £70.32 pm.... ?" Correct
    £17.58 single app plan requires an annual commit - it's £27.34 for the month-to-month plan without annual commit.
    Thanks

  • What are the fees for month-by-month rental?

    I can only find the ANNUAL subcription rates here.
    http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/creativecloud/buying-guide.html
    What are the rates for renting by the month?
    The FAQ says: "You also have the option to select a month-to-month plan and pay a higher monthly price with no commitment."

  • My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pockey and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed

    My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

    That's where I would begin, too, with
    Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

  • What are the settings for Primere Elements 9 if I've filmed with a Canon Powershot sx50 HS?

    I just got this camera and I want the best quality possible. Unfortunately, it's hard for me to fully know if the settings I try create that. I get a fuzz or noise on objects like if I'm wearing a black jacket it's like static. When I put the video on my phone which is an Android Galaxy s4 it converts it into mp4 format and I get much more clear results than on my computer which perplexes me. I did a lot of trial and error with my previous camera (JVC Full HD Everio) which I got the same results. My newer Canon should be leagues ahead of the JVC, but I really can't tell as of yet. If anyone could help that would be awsome. I have examples of my trials and errors from my Youtube videos which you can see I felt I was slowly making progress with the JVC Oppositeofhood - YouTube

    Then I saw your latest post
    Wait, I think I just found it. I pressed record on different settings to take pictures with like portrait to see if it would make a difference and when I uploaded them to my computer I found where it shows the BIt rate and it varied. They run at 23 frames per second 1920 x 1080 MOV video files and all the Bit rates are like 36,356 35,414 ,36,521
    If your camera is recording with a variable bitrate, the Bitrate variations from file to file should not be contributing to the issue. But it does raise the issue related to whether or
    not we are setting the appropriate bitrate level in the export settings. What are the units for 36,356, 35,414, and 36,517 -
    kbps (also can be written Kbps) and is kilobits per second
    or
    Mbps which is megabits per second.
    Let us try this for one of your 1920 x 1080p24 videos.
    Go through the following workflow
    Manually set project preset...
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p24
    When you go to export your edited Timeline content, then use
    Share
    Computer
    QuickTime
    with Presets = NTSC DV 16:9 - that is going to be customized to 1080p24 (H.264.mov) under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset
    The essential settings under the Advanced Button/Video Tab
    Video Codec = H.264
    Frame Width = 1920
    Frame Height = 1080
    Frame Rate = 23.976
    Field Type = Progressive
    Aspect = Square Pixels (1.0)
    Now here is where we are going to experiment....
    Bitrate
    Check Mark next to Limit Data Rate to and type in 36000 before kbps
    note the file size of the export as well as the quality of the playback.
    Repeat the whole process but in export
    Remove the check mark next to Limit Data Rate. The Bitrate field will be disabled.
    note the file size of the export as well as the quality of the playback.
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thanks.

    What are the settings for automatic service PO?

    Hello,
    I would like to know if it is possible to automatically create the PR for services. It would be similar to MD04 but instead of being for stockable materials, it would be done for non-stockable materials (services in this case).
    PR would be generated monthly, because this services have to be paid every month, for example electricity, water, rent, phone bills.
    I hope you can help me, thank you!
