Chip, Yes, I dabbled with both of those converters. For me, though, I ended up using PhotoShop for cropping, color correction, and adding captions into jpgs before submiting to the paper. Hence, with the browser in version 7 and the ability to process raw, I get the whole process done with PhotoShop alone. Sweet!
