Now that you're set up, let's explore how to make the most of Filteronme for your Skype calls:

1. Find Your Perfect Look

Experiment with different filters to find the combination that suits you best. Start subtle and gradually increase intensity until you're happy with the result. Remember, the goal is to enhance your natural beauty, not create an entirely new look (unless that's what you're going for!).

3. Name your preset (e.g., "Professional Meeting" or "Casual Hangout")
4. Click "Save"

You can save multiple presets and switch between them easily in the presets tab.

3. Optimize for Your Audience

Consider your audience when choosing filters:

• Professional Meetings: Opt for subtle enhancements that look natural and professional.
• Social Calls: Feel free to experiment with more fun and creative filters.
• Streaming: Use bold effects that will stand out on smaller screens.

4. Combine with Skype's Built-in Features

Don't forget to use Skype's native features alongside Filteronme. For example, you can still use Skype's virtual backgrounds while benefiting from Filteronme's face-enhancing filters.

5. Try community presets

We have a community of users who have shared their favorite Filteronme presets. You can find these on the community presets section of the presets tab.
