Although I don't use GEM, I have seen it used on a number of web sites,
and my reaction is it is a bit like melting the emulsion a bit. I find
it degrades the image by removing the very fine detail. Personally, I
don't like it. It also seem to "average" the color to remove small
specks. The images look "buffed" or something.
