i like it. li like it very much. have tried it on a bunch of images. what i really like, as with all fred's plugins, is that you have total control, and the gui is really simple, too. you choose high or low iso image type, you choose the level of sharpening you want, you choose whether you want to minimize the effects of noise caused by sharpening, and presto switcho, it's done.

fred, i give you my highest rating, five snowmen!
