Nice idea for a thread, and helpful information.

One other tip regarding the use of levels...I use them manually as well.

The default setting for the levels (in a pulldown menu on top) adjusts all three color channels the same. You can also adjust individual channels, so if the picture is too blue, you can reduce that selectively...probably along the lines of what gets adjusted in the 10D subtlecolor action (although that is just a guess). The eyedropper levels tools are helpful if you have an object that is pure white or pure black in the photo as well.

Lots of fun stuff to play around with.

Also, I usually use the rubber stamp tool for getting rid of the annoying "floaters"
