- Ben Scott,
-
- Imagemaster can do everything that you needed to do. Your experiences here
- are based with an older version of the software, as you have been told several
- times. I have no objection to your "reviews", but I can't see how your
- experiences OR your opinions are representative of the majority of users.
-
- Something else, I've investigated the issue of the transparency curves
- quite carefully - they work perfectly, and I was unable to make them do
- anything OTHER than work perfectly. It sounds to me like you were making
- some large mistake in concept - which is impossible to verify in a short
- while, unfortunately, so it'll remain a guess for now. Since you also
- said, multiple times, that this was one of the reasons that you "couldn't"
- use Imagemaster, I suggest that you go back and find out what you were doing
- wrong.
-
- Several reasons I say this. First, I can't see where someone who "understands"
- morphing, as you say you do, could possibly misunderstand how the tx curves
- are applied. I'd like to know what we should explain that we did not. This
- will benefit the docs and all of our users. Second, I must be frank and tell
- you that I believe that Imagemaster's learning curves are much shorter and
- far less steep than those of Morph+; and the statements you've made here
- positively raise my eyebrows as far as they will go. I am NOT calling you
- a liar at all - but I *am* asking you to find out just what it is in your
- approach to Imagemaster caused you all this trouble.
-
- You've made quite a deal out of it, as is your option, all I ask is that you
- find out the root cause - everyone will benefit.
-
