    i would consider a URL that describes your style of photography, or genre, or history...

    for example, when i got my start in photography, it was the film days before digital took over, and i shot 35mm slide and 120 (medium format) slide...

    so, when i sat with clients, previews were 8x10 proofsheets, so when it came time to create my website, i went with 8x10proofs.com

    all depends. My editing is a lot more comprehensive. I don't really use sliders for sdjusting photos. I usually use a histogram, and curves.

    x2. The way i do it is a lot different and takes longer, but i like the out come of the photo more. and it actually feels like im putting a little effort into it too. :p

    the should be a file setting in your camera's menu and just set it to RAW


    EDIT: NVM read your post wrong.

    It depends. It depends what you want to use the picture for; if you're printing, the size of the print; or if you want to emphasize a part of the image.
