Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
I'm looking for a simple to use program that will allow me to make avatars, signitures, banners, resize png and jpeg images etc... on my mac.
Nothing too feature loaded, as the above isn't really that complicated at all. I'm really only talking about things such as adding a glass effect to an image like a userbar etc...
Basically, i'm looking for a mac equivalent of Paint.NET for windows.
It's important that it's native however. I'm done with the whole messing about thing with Windows. I'm keeping things simple and native with my mac. So for that reason discount the gimp as it requires X11.
I've done some google searching, and all i've come up with is Seahorse, which hasn't been updated for about 2 years and is reported to be quite buggy with Leopard?
So basically it seems my choice is Adobe Photoshop or nothing? I can't afford £600+ for Photoshop, that's crazy, and I wouldn't pay it even if I could.
So what do you all use?

Oh wait, some more google searching has uncovered THIS!
http://www.pixelmator.com/
Looks awesome
Ok, it's not free, but it's only like £45 and it's native! Only for a mac too btw.
Anyone heard of this? -
No-one else uses their mac to make simple graphics or has used pixelmator before?

yea, I would recommend inkscape also. it's quite powerful for something thats free but not quite as good as illustrator (darn it
)
the one pet peeve I have with it is that you can't force 15/45 degree lines
What to do about wanting to do simple graphics on a mac?
