Picture Cooler in use

Archived from groups: rec.photo.digital (More info?)

I have been using Picture Cooler and find it to be one of the best denoisers I
have ever used--far superior to Noise Ninja, Focal Blade, Neat Image & Ultra
Sharpen.

Yes, that's the deal. Free software when/if it becomes commercial if
you advertise it in this way. The sure markings of a scam. Because of
this, you can't believe anything positive anybody says about unless
you know/trust them in the NG already. A very stupid idea really.

I'll say nothing about the product at this point, but I am prepared to
accuse the author of inducing & promoting advertising spam because he
created the award scheme and failed to set any boundaries. That's not
good for anyone. He'll never see a cent from my pocket.

I don't think the product is near ready for release yet. He is more
interested in getting input from a number of users, I think.
