It has a good and faithful following of discerning and expert users, in my opinion for delicate adjustments and a subtle adjustment tool I prefer it to anything else, particularly for IR work which I find hard in Ps.
I think it's disgusting that a company like Corel takes over a small but good specialised product like Bibble and effectively casts it aside like so much garbage.
I have never been a fan of Corel although I did use it Corel Draw the very early days to create graphics for 'in house' adverts for a betting shop chain when I used to build the odd PC for fun then I remembered why I used Mac's.
I was devastated when I first saw this thread, although to be honest not completely surprised. Very sad.
As for a Phoenix resurrection attempt I suspect it would be a money pit. Eric Hyman was I think the founder and driving force behind Bibble, a product like Bibble needs a driving force and without Eric who I believe retired from the company a couple of years ago and Jeff Stephens has negotiated the takeover by Corel to allow the product to move forward with more backing. That appears to have failed.
