I got three words for you.... "off camera flash". Tough with a point and shoot and a built-in flash - Red Eye is a way of life. I have to say I'm fairly impressed with Photoshop Express. It's of course slower as you point out but for an occasional user... not bad at all. Looks like it did a good job of processing.

Just love "Loaded" and the aka new "host". Have you try Picassa for organizing your photos and simple editing.Give it a try.

Of course you could match her eye color,and use paint to color the natural color in the eye.

Looks good to me.
Auto red reducers do tend to zap lighter eye shades for darker, and they don't always work -- especially when the red eye is a huge yellow spot of reflected retina.
Under photoshop, I tend to select the eyes then reduce the red through color balance. Then do a clean up with the brush set on multiply or color using a shade similar, if eyedropped, from the actual shade from the picture. It's a lot more work, but there's a lot more manual control. Do it for more than 3-5 photos in a row, and you'll go crazy.

Have you tried iPhoto's redeye reducer? It's not bad and is somewhat tweakable manually to select the exact spot of the eye it should focus on. Sometimes though, it's off the mark.

Have to try the free Photoshop and compare it to the CS version I use now. Considering there are other open-source photoeditors around. It's a good move for Adobe to give everyone a taste of the gold-standard app for photoediting.
