Digital BW, The Print

Sorry I didn't have it quite right.  Try 
http://www.theimagingfactory.com/.  You may have to step through "products" 
and then select the convert program.  As I recall, there's a free trial 
download that's good for a while, so you might be able to just try it for a 
bit.  Coming from 30+ years of B&W darkroom work and wanting to do 
primarily B&W work in digital mode, this program struck me as the most 
immediately useful way to get control over B&W prints, and I think I bought 
it after just a couple of days' trial.  But since I was just beginning in 
digital image manipulation I was also having difficulty getting any kind of 
grasp on even the basics of Photoshop, and not having to deal with levels 
and curves at the beginning was another big attraction of this 
software.  If you don't have a lot of B&W film work behind you, or if 
you're more comfortable with Photoshop manipulations, or if you're not as 
focused on B&W output as I was, this may not be worth the price, as there 
are other ways to achieve the same results.  But I'd still recommend you 
try it and see.

Cheers,
Kip
