Can you please suggest a very basic image editing tool? I want to resie images, crop them and carry out other very basic tasks. I will be using it to prepare image for my web designs. Also it should be able to create a reflection under the image and make round curves and stuff. Preferably free and low on resources.
Got a tip for us?

OK I gt a problem. I am using Seshore, it looks good and all but how do I enter a hex value to be used like when using paint bucket. It only shows sliders and stuff but I cant enter a hex value.
Secondly as I am not realy into high end imageing can you tell me how to add a round edge to something?

I have used Adobe Photoshop Elements for years, but I always maintained a simple, quick image editor for small, quick jobs.
That was with a Windows PC.
Now that I am on Mac full-time, I find I need the same two elements; a powerful, comprehensive program, and a fast-launching basic program.
After a thorough evaluation of Seashore I could not be happier. This is a really nice little editor. Launches instantly, unlike Photoshop Elements. Has all the basics in a simple interface. And . . . . the price isn't bad either . . .

Seashore is pretty good, but how come no one has mentioned Acorn or Pixelmator yet?
You can download them both and give em a try:

Seashore really is quite decent. After my initial dismissal, I had to spend more time with it and it's got more features than I initially realized. As for Acorn and Pixelmator, I'm waiting until they mature before buying one. Each is missing a tool I want.
