Hi,

I just discovered your site and am so glad I did. Having a quick look around, you provide a lot of information that will be very relevant to me. Thank you for that!

As for Tiffen's Photo fx, I have to say that I do have this for my iPhone and it is my most used photo app. I would absolutely LOVE to win a promo code for the Ultra version for my iPad. But if I don't, I will count my pennies and still get it :-) I did not even know that they had released the Ultra version.

Thanks again!
