FARIBORZ  I recently learnt about Bokeh. As I had already used its venerable predecessor "Freeze Frame" and had found it an invaluable tool to increase my productivity I decided to give the new program a try. Well, I admit that it's exceptionally more intuitive and the new FOCUS function that instantly freezes other programs processing consumption to increase the foreground application resources is really a manna from heaven! This function also blurs other background windows to allow you more concentration on the document you are working on. I also found the developer very friendly and responsive and would like to thank him heartily for his priceless assistance. Fariborz AMIRSHAHI - Verona (Italy)  (Version 1.0.1)

OLLIE WAGNER  Bokeh is different in a few ways:

1) It now has the support in development to become the best it can be.

2) It's scriptable. You can now automatically focus into a 3D render or other high-need process simply by slipping in a little 'tell application "Bokeh" to focus" right before your script does it's main function.

Did you know that Bokeh made Photoshop CS3 12.9% faster using the retouchartists.com Photoshop benchmark?

3) It's beautiful. We've spent a lot of time in Bokeh designing resolution independent graphics, from our 512x512 icon, all the way down to the menu bar graphic.

So try it out, we give you a free 10-day trial. If you find it to accelerate your personal workflow, you'll know you need to give it a permanent home in your apps folder.   (Version 1.0.1)

GRYPHONENT  This app used to be called Freeze Frame. An application that never truly received much development and stopped in its tracks to fully exploit its potential. So, months later we get Bokeh, a version 1.0, and a significantly higher price tag. What's new and different? What's changed? Other than automatic updates I cannot see any changes. And what's with a decent upgrade offer for registered users of FreezeFrame?  (Version 1.0)
