This program is neat. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Seriously, Neat Image is a really cool digital image filter that can clean up images that suffer from noise. Digital noise is most noticeable in photos where too little light was used, but it occurs in almost all digital photos to greater or lesser degrees. Neat Image understands what causes this noise, and has the unique ability of being able to reduce the noise, sometimes completely. Check out the before and after photos for an example of what I’m talking about. There is a fully functional free demo version with a few limitations (does that mean it’s not “fully functional”? You know what I mean) - the most important of which is that it will limit the JPEG quality of any image it saves to 91 out of 100, which in reality is still very good. Chances are the improvements you’ll see due to cleaned up noise will outweigh the loss of quality. There are 4 other versions available, including a Photoshop plug-in version. And it has Windows and Mac versions, and will even run in Wine for you Linux folks!
