Say thanks to Rustigsmed (Russell) for this. I was having heaps of issues getting good pix out of my sessions and this made a huge difference. You'll need Photoshop though to use it and that can be found for free on
www.snapfiles.com in the Free, Graphics section. It's only PS2 which Adobe released to free use last year but works perfectly for me in this capacity. License code is included on the snapfiles page. ( safe site for downloads btw and there is other good software there as well ).
Another very useful piece of software is Noiseware Community Edition. Again it's free and comes from Softonic but just untick all the extras it tries to download as well and get just the software itself. It's ok after that, no nags or anything.
And take Ben up on his offer, a bit of collaboration is always a good start.
Welcome to the learning cycle....it's fun
