I use B&W Converter a lot as a simpler alternative to AgFXPro, having tried both. I find that the alterations that the tool makes to do such things as replicate TX or similar are not very/not at all different from what I can do in PSE5 for example. Although I wouldn't presume to call what I do replicating anything. Am I really missing something? I find that the real difficult bit is being satisfied with the print.
