RE: [Digital BW] B&W software apps ...

Hi Jose:

I was looking at the 'toning' set which looks very cool... but the fine 
print states that all the tools "Please note that PhotoKit is optimized for 
images that are between 8-18mbs (useful on larger sizes as well) and 
therefore some effects do not translate well to small web images"

I'm more concerned with how they react on larger images in the 50+ mb 
range. Do you regularly use the bw conversion tools on larget files?

Regards,
Denton
