Thanks for the plug Gabriel, I'm glad you like it!

After working for so long on the viewer, my attention is now focused on the software.

I agree the software is worth the price alone, but it's a hard sell because the value is in the details - a list of the main features makes it hard to distinguish from all the free software available.  The functions included are quite powerful, including advanced color manipulation and file handling features which are (IMHO) improvements over what I have found in most 2D imaging software.  However, based on what I have been hearing, many of the functions, although just a couple mouse clicks away, remain hidden to someone who runs the program for the first time.  I have already made several improvements based on user suggestions to try to fix this problem and am now shipping version 1.2.  Everyone who buys now, will automatically receive a free future upgrade after I have received more user feedback.

Strategically, the software is designed to make handling large numbers of stereo images easy for the general public.  I reason that the easier it is to produce stereo images, the more likely they will be made, the more interest in 3D.

Finally, I wouldn't want to suggest that the PokeScope works for over and under format.  That must have been wishful thinking.
