Lightroom Preset Viewer
PixelPeeper was made to reverse-engineer Lightroom edits from JPG files, but it also understands XMP files.
If you have XMP presets that you'd like to visualize, but you don't have a Creative Cloud subscription, PixelPeeper will help you.
Grab a XMP file, go to the My Presets page (requires an account), drop the file onto the browser window (as shown above) and you'll see all the settings that preset would make, in a familiar, Lightroom-like interface.
Turn JPG Files into Lightroom Presets
When you find a photo with metadata, you can download it as a preset, import it to Lightroom and apply to your own photos.

Preset Finder
Whether you want to know which presets other photographers use or you'd simply like to know which one of your own presets you used in the past on the given photo, Preset Finder has you covered.
Upload your presets to PixelPeeper and drop a JPG image. Present Finder will:
- scan all your presets
- show you which ones match the settings in JPG (ordered by confidence score).
