Yeah, forgot about the free version of Perfect Effects. That's how I found out about it. Hope you have fun playing with it. I don't remember any restrictions in use. The only downside (as I recall) is that the number of effects is limited.

I only ever bought the whole suite because they had an insane sale last year. I got the standard version because the pro version was really more aimed at photographers and was not worth the extra money to me.

Just about anything I have I got because of a sale of one sort or another. My days at DAZ conditioned me to always wait for a sale because there will always be one. :)
