Are we allowed to use lensbabys for challenges? And if we are, can they be added to the lens menu?
If not, why?

The thing about Lensbabies is the effect really can't be completely duplicated easily in Photoshop, yet many voters assume otherwise.

Lensbabies and voters are an un happy marriage anyway, so who cares.

I found out it takes some time to get used to the baby. Not so much how to control, it, but mainly to know when to use it.
