Here's an example of where I think beta testers can help make RGBSplit more robust:

Thinking about RGBSplit this morning I suddenly realised that I have allowed the user to enter ANYTHING as a destination folder name on the Options tab. Potentially a user can use illegal characters for folder names (eg '\', '.') which will crash the app when it tries to create the folder.

I'm thinking about restricting user input to 0-9 and A-Z - but will that create another problem if a user is trying to enter an 'illegal' character and nothing is happening? Should I throw up a dialog saying 'x' is an illegal character?
