What version of lightroom do you have? I don't use lightroom very often at all since I just never quite got the hang of it so I only have Lightroom 3. I go in there every once in awhile just to try out a few presets for a photo.

Yesterday, I downloaded over 190 free presets from OnOne (Volumes 1, 2 & 3) but it is only supports Lightroom 2 & 3. In Volume 3, there are presets for sharpening and noise reduction for general use and a few of them are specifically for landscape and a few for portraits. Each one has a light, medium and strong preset to choose from.

Here's the link if you or anyone else is interested ...

I'm sure they will come out with one for Lightroom 4 soon. I hope this helps!
