Updatex2I have started playing with another image editor for OS X that is closer to MS Paint or Paint.NET than Pixen, which is called Seashore. So far, it seems pretty good.
Update
Anthony from On Various Things pointed me toward Pixen in a comment on this original post. To create the screenshot for my most recent post I had to crop the Parallels image from a full desktop screenshot (CMD-SHIFT-3) and then scale it to fit in the space Blogger has allocated for posts on this 800x600 template. Copying the Parallels pixels in Pixen, no problem, creating a new image from the pixels on the clipboard, slow but usable, trying to scale the image with any of the 3 supported algorithms, Pixen crash! I then went back to ImageWell to get it done. Sorry Pixen, you have been Trashed.
Original PostWhen I posted about my first Mac OS X annoyance, I had already known about a couple gems for image manipulation on OS X, but these didn't fit my pixel pushing needs.

First up is ImageWell, which is a very good and free image editor, but its not Photoshop Lite. It's more like a blogger best friend. Get an image processed maybe with some text on it, and then send it off to the net. This is working out pretty well since I can post an image to my .Mac hosting folder I use for all my images in 1 click.
The other one that has been very cool is Ping!. This app is very simple, you just drop PNGs on it and it optimizes the file size very small without any degradation in image quality. I kept the icon in my Dock, then I drag any number of PNGs onto it. Ping! will launch, optimize, save the images in place, and then quit. For example, I take screenshots in OS X all the time (Apple-Shift-4) and OS X saves these to your Desktop as PNG files. A recent screenshot I took weighed in at 20 KB, but after Ping put it on a diet, it was down to 16 KB. The only thing I don't like about the application is the name, to me ping will always be a network utility.
Revisiting last year’s list to make this the 2007 edition… It’s the Top 10 “it should have been in the box” applications for OS X. And in some cases, they are in the box; but in most cases they are not. That said, the top 10 “can’t live without ’em” applications for the OS X desktop environment.
- Quicksilver — This was last year’s lead-off item as well. I cannot stress enough how awesome this one little, almost totally and completely transparent application is. The cliche in the Quicksilver-using community holds true with me: “I feel crippled without this thing.” Cmd+Space all day long; who needs a mouse when you have this?
- VoodooPad — Another one from last year. I spend just about all day in this thing, too. Everything that you need in a notepad application and more. Everything you need in a personal wiki application and more. Per-page encryption, linkback support, backlink lists, document-wide searches, export options galore, hooks for Quicksilver, scripting via Lua. This app has it all.
- Cyberduck — Three in a row from last year. This fully-featured FTP application is complete with SFTP support and FTP-over-TLS. It also features Bonjour, AppleScript, and Keychain Access support. Plus it’s a free, open source download. Occasional random crashes (especially on drag/drop downloads) are a little annoying but hardly a deal-breaker. Especially when you throw Growl into the mix.
- OmniOutliner — I resisted this one for a long time. “A list manager? For what? I got my lists right here in VoodooPad!” Well, after about a week of throwing to do lists and project outlines into OmniOutliner… You better believe I “got it” then. Notes/comments, linkback support, customizable formatting. Really nicely done.
- OmniGraffle –– Echo of last year: Pretty much the perfect diagramming application. And with some sweet drawing capabilities wrapped up in it, too. (Because those are pretty intrinsically linked.) Worth the price. And so is the Professional version. Not much to add to that.
- ImageWell –– Just about the ideal lightweight image editor for “quickie” edits. The free version doesn’t have all the bells/whistles but you can get by on that. (Though you’ll be tempted to spring for the pro version every day until you break down and do it…) The UI is a little weird if you’re already accustomed to more professional graphics editor (i.e., Photoshop) but once you get the hang of it, ImageWell is the perfect app for the 2 minute “crop > circle > label > upload” task.
- SIMBL — Not really an application… More of a… Framework? No, that’s not right. More of a… Meta-plug-in? That’s more like it. SIMBL allows you to graft all kinds of wicked cool UI hacks into all kinds of applications. See also: iPhoto Keyword Manager. See also: Visor. See also: Safari WebDev Additions.
- Lingon — Perhaps the deepest geek item on this list, Lingon is the launchd editor/manager. With launchd in the background and Lingon up front, cron looks like some kind of 17th century automata. Between Lingon and Smultron, Apple should at least comp Peter Borg 10 years worth of .Mac membership or something.
- Perian — This replaces Flip4Mac as the crucial plug-in for QuickTime. I know VLC seems to have the bigger following and get all the press but its last release seemed to broken — several video files it didn’t seem to want to play any more. Oddly enough, Perian’s done an OK job with most of those. Still need Flip4Mac for Windows Media files. Fortunately, those are few and far between.
- TextMate — The verdict is in. For text (especially code), TextMate trumps them all. Nothing can touch it. If you spend hours a day staring at scripts and source, TextMate rocks it. That said, the price tag is a little steep-feeling sometimes. Well worth it but if you can’t justify that for yourself: Smultron comes close.
On browsers: Last year’s list posited Camino as one of the essential ten. As browser preferences are their own nerdy jihad, let’s just work our through this with the following. To date, Camino has given me the best browser experience on the Mac desktop. Wrapping the Gecko rendering engine in a Cocoa-based browser keeps the UI consistent with the rest of the OS while giving what many have argued is the best overall in-browser experience (in terms of functionality, features, consistent rendering, etc.) For most casual browsers, this should be more than enough. But casual browsers are likely stick with what is pre-loaded (i.e., Safari). That said, Safari is a great browser in and of itself and has (arguably) some outstanding and perhaps even unique features as far as color is concerns (if you’re into that sort of thing). But Safari doesn’t play nice with certain web-forms (as we’ve mentioned before) and the recent talk of Safari’s memory usage are both concerns. As for non-casual, webdev types… Well, some things make Firefox untouchable.
