Hi there John and asch: I also like Exposure a lot. It has the ability to create a nice "clumpy Tmax grain look," and all adjustments can be put on a separate layer, and saved with custom settings. I also really like the large Alien Skin preview windows. I was interviewed about my tests of Exposure on Inside Mac Radio (March 25th 2006 show). There was a little mixup in the audio about pricing, which is $199, or $99 if you own certain other Alien Skin titles. If you'd like to listen to the segment, the easiest way to listen is by going to this page http://www.podcastpickle.com/casts/768/ and downloading the .m4a file where it reads: "Get this episode: Click here to download", then just drop it into Apple iTunes. You can also subscribe to the Podcast and download it in a "Podcatcher" like iTunes. My segment is about 1 hour into the show. There is a link to a 10% discount on most of Alien Skin's purchases on my site, http://www.imagingbuffet.com (right side). This is a referral link, so a percentage of any purchases using the discount will be paid to me if the discount link is used.
