Just played around a little with it this morning...so far my favourite feature of it is that they've included the detail slider. This really works nicely with the adaptive exposure slider.

Great value for the money. I downloaded the trial, just to compare it to Silver Effex Pro. I definitely don't need Topaz B+W, but for $30, it's tempting to get it anyway.

so buy your topaz

because in the end you are just that
picture snappers

Ehhhh, I sold my artistic soul a long time ago. It affords me the privilege of buying better brushes, which affords me more time for picture snapping, which in turn affords me more money....

It's a never ending chain, but hey, gotta get the most bang for the buck out of my artistic soul, ya know. Sex, ~~drugs~~ (drugs are bad), and rock-n-roll!

Ummm... Brushes do make you a better artist. Try outlining without an outlining brush -- extremely difficult. Now buy the expensive outlining brush with just a few long hairs -- oh my! What a difference!!
