Ofoto's advanced lab uses Kodak Perfect Touch to individually scan and optimize each and every one of your photographs. The result: For no extra charge, your pictures are as lively and true-to-life as the moment you pressed the button and took the picture!"</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/KPT-OV_comparison_en_US.jpg" /><br /><br />Ofofo is the service I used before I bought my Canon i950 photo printer, and I still use them for large-format printing (16" x 20" prints usually). In a recent newsletter I received from them they mentioned a new service called PerfectTouch. As the quoted text above indicates, it's essentially an exposure-correcting and colour-correcting process. In the Q&amp;A on the Ofoto site, they mention a version in the works will also correct red-eye problems.<br /><br />Has anyone seen PerfectTouch in action yet? I'm planning on submitting a few problematic photos to Ofoto to see how well this system actually works, but I'd be very interested to hear from people who have used this service already and what they thought of it.

Haven't used this product, but this boy sure looks young for grey hair!

I use MS PictureIt and the software that came with my Canon printer.

That is exactly what I was going to say. It certainly looks like an artifact of the process.

I'm thinking the process adds too much flash, which accounts for the gray/highlights in this case.
