Nik Is Dead My Free Survival Guide on Switching to ON1. Last month I saw a ton of questions, FacebookTwitter posts and just about everything else when GoogleNik stopped working for some people.

That said, the writing is on the wall and probably has been since Google made Nik free last year  Nik is unfortunately dead  Google even posted a message on the Nik home page that says it will no longer be updated not even maintenance upgrades to make it work with Adobe, Apple or Windows. Anyway, last month I didnt write anything on the topic for two reasons. I had already written two articles on it and I felt like the topic was getting beat to death. The first was years ago after Google bough Nik and I was very wrong about some predictions. And the second was last year when they made it free. So I figured Id written enough. Nik Collection.

Or complain any more than I already had, and pile on the angry train that was building, I figured Id make a course to show people what I moved to after I dropped Nik years ago. So thats exactly what I did and that course, The Nik to ON1 Survival Guide is now ready and free for you to download right now. A Quick Word From Our Sponsor As youll see below, I use Lightroom to organize and edit my raw photos and I use Photoshop for retouching, layers, etc Both of my big Lightroom and Photoshop courses are 1. Heres the links Lightroom Course. Photoshop Course. How I Use ON1 My workflow is pretty much the same as it always was. I start in Lightroom. If I have any major cloninghealing to do, layering, content aware, retouching, etc then I jump to Photoshop. After that, if I really love the photo and I need some creative help with styling it, then I jump to ON1 Effects and back to Lightroom. For me, I only used Nik Color Efex and Silver Efex, so when I went looking for something to replace it, I just needed a new place for effects, styling, and black  white conversions. So thats the viewpoint from which this survival guide was created. You can certainly do your whole workflow in ON1 and they have a ton of info on that on their website. I just wanted to show you were it fits in my workflow. What Is the Survival Guide This course is meant to be something where Nik users can see what I switched to, and how it works similar to what you had with Nik and how its different. The course mainly covers Nik Color Efex Pro which was the most popular plug in Nik had and how to get something similar in ON1 Effects. First I show you how the two are similar. How you launch ON1 just like Nik, and how the Filters and Presets work similar to the way they work in Nik. Nik Sharpener Pro Manual' title='Nik Sharpener Pro Manual' />Then I dive in to an overview cheat sheet of sorts, that shows a Nik filter and what filters I think produce something close or similar in ON1 Effects. Keep in mind, Nik CEP is old like really old. So there are filters in there that just dont make sense in todays workflow. Things like Curves or Levels. If you even use Curves anymore which most people dont, that would be something youd do in your raw editor of choice I personally use Lightroom, but theres a lot of others out there and ON1 even has their own raw editor. Then I cover Silver Efex Pro and how to get something similar in ON1 Effects with their black white conversion. I wont get in to the debate of whether or not theres anything comparable to Silver Efex, since thats in the eye of the beholder. All I want to do is give you an option if you want to find an alternative to Nik, and show you what I personally use. Finally, I briefly touch on Viveza, Analog Efex, Sharpener, and Dfine. I dont spend much time on them because most people have a workflow in a raw editor, and all of these tasks should be done there where you get better results anyway, rather than a plug in.

NIK.jpg' alt='Nik Sharpener Pro Manual' title='Nik Sharpener Pro Manual' />Its Got A PDF Cheat Sheet Too I even included a PDF cheat sheet with it. This has all of the links to download, but also has a decoder that lists each Nik Color Efex Filter, and its closest match in ON1 with some quick notes on settings or suggestions. The videos are the main thing, but I figured this would help once youve watched them and just needed something to quickly refer back to. Also, if you want to just grab the PDF and see if the course looks like its something for you, you can click here to download it. Yes, Its Free. I decided to make this free because I was right there with ya years ago. I was ticked off that my favorite plug ins were close to dead, and never to be updated again. So rather than complain about it again which Ive done many times, I decided to do something that could help. I figured I can show you my workflow. This isnt a sales pitch and I dont work for ON1. Its meant for a Nik user who doesnt know how to get the effects that they liked with Nik, and hopefully it helps you reproduce some of them with ON1. Do You Already Own ON1 If you already own and use ON1 this course isnt for you. My guess is you wont learn anything new unless you literally havent installed or used your purchase yet.
