Like others I use Photoshop everyday for all of my 2d graphics work. I have never used Candy Factory.

I downloaded the examples and I think they are crisper and clearer than the results generated using Photoshop. The lighting effects look great.

What would be nice is to have a before and after shot.

I mean if these started as a plain b/w image then it looks to be a 'must have' product.

Of course similiar effects can be generated in Photoshop but it would need a lot of planning and head scratching.
