Hey Kevin,

Thanks for the acknowledgement on the Powergrade concept.

Ya know I took a lot of heat for that idea, many believe that all  
color enhancements should be built from the ground up for true  
originality.
Clearly, I disagreed. I think in retrospect, the advent of plug ins,  
layers, and other pre built shot box style effects has become very  
popular.
I think Apple has done a great job at creating Library style effects  
that are highly customizable and node based. I'm very fond of their  
implementation.

Back to you.
