I was interested in purchasing Buzz Pro 2 which I have on my computer as a demo but FO2PIX closed shop at the end of August. Does anyone know of an equivalent program ? This is my first post.

I've heart that FO2PIX closed shop too. I don't know of a replacement, but you can do some simplifying in Photoshop using Pixelate>Fractles, Noise>Median, or Smart Blur.
