QUICK HELP! Please! Need a simple app to...

Transeau · Feb 27, 2007, 09:01 PM

I need a simple app to do basic image cropping, XY resizing and dpi changing.

I have a Mac-Noob that just can't deal with the changes to Mac, and she doesn't have PaintShop Pro anymore. What is a good alternative for her?

Please help me! She's on her way over now!

You could try the Graphic Converter demo.

There is always Gimp (I think they have a mac version? I'm still on a pc until fall) . Not the simplest, but it's not that hard to figure out, and it's pretty powerful if you want to do more than crop.

Is lightroom still in beta? is there a trial of aperture?

No, Lightroom is now the full version. Don't know about aperture, but it's not exactly a "simple" crop program to figure out if you don't know anything about picture organization software.

Umm... Try Preview. Just open the image, press apple-k, and you're cropping.
