Ted,
You are wrong, wrong, wrong. If you worked in desktop publishing as I do and
had to make publishable photos out of other people's c*** or if you needed to
restore fragile family photos, tintypes, etc, that are just barely visible
because of time or deterioration, you'd fall on your knees and kiss the feet of
whoever invented Photoshop. Maybe it's not right for you or for your particular
application, but for those of us who do need it, it's the only thing that will
work. Perhaps NSS just ought to ban enhanced photos in the competition. Or
limit enhanced photos to another category.
