    This looks really good!!!

    And I think I speak for all of us, when I say: RULERS! ;o) Thank you!
    Now only an Info-HUD and layer-folders and I can shed myself of PS!

    Thanks a lot for the heads up and good luck on putting a band together! ;o)

    Can’t wait!

    Looking forward to it. PM hasn’t quite ousted the other art packages from my machines just yet but tbh I look forward to the day that it does.

    Nice one on the rulers, yep they’ve been one of my big wants when using it, curves’ll be useful too (although I don’t tend to use them that much). Next on my wishlist would be CMYK and gamut check. As ever like to catch up on the new stuff though so keep up the good stuff.

    Rules, grid and guides are a very welcome addition. Now, if you could give the “Transform” command a keyboard shortcut, I’d be in heaven. Resizing/rotating are two things I (and I suspect others) do most of the time, and moving the mouse back to the menu bar and through the Edit > Transform > … menus gets tedious.

    Keep up the great work! Iterate, iterate, iterate!

    I’ll be honest, guides was pretty much the only reason that I wasn’t switching. Well, guides and an info HUD window.

    Will there be an info HUD window in this release?

    Keep up the great work guys!

    6 People now? That’s great news for the development, and great news that it shows Pixelmator is doing well!

    Just don’t turn into Adobe 😉

    Always looking forward to the next release of Pixelmator. Keep up the fantastic work as ever, guys.

    Thanks for the hard work!

    Even though Pixelmator doesn’t yet have every single feature I’d like, it’s comforting to see continuous improvements to the program.

    I’m very happy with Pixelmator. Happy to contribute those guys to build a great piece of software.

    Thanks again from Italy. Have a nice day.

    I’m still waiting on CMYK. Registered Pixelmator user, and using it for some web stuff, but I’ll never leave Photoshop until CMYK support is in there.

    What I really hope is coming is a shapes tool and layer folders. Thats all I ask for. Oh that and the ability to double click a text field to edit it!

    I would also love to see CMYK in pixelmator, without it i can´t use it, since i do a lot of print graphiks.

    BTW: What really holds me back from using pixelmator is hundrets of paletts flying around. Can´t you integrate some way of attaching those paletts to another. This would be great. If you need another gui or graphic design, let me knwo:) You have my webpage;)

    good work guys, cheers dietmar

    YEAH! AT LAST ! And now, make it work better with very large files, and add a path tool, and CMYK and it would be excellent!

    OMG CURVES! XD And a polygonal lasso tool! Thank you so much!!! The grid and rulers will probably also come in handy, though I haven’t needed them yet. I was wondering why there was no update last month, now I know 😛

    Great work Pixelmator team! With each update Pixelmator comes closer to filling all my image editing needs! Keep up the good work! 😀

    One more vote for CMYK.
    Can’t throw Photoshop until Pixelmator supports that.
    Otherwise, great work, guys!

    @ 16 Dietmar – “hundrets of paletts flying around”

    Your palettes are animated? How can I get me some flying Pixelmator palettes?

    CMYK support
    Save for web support

    I don’t believe that Pixelmator will ever support CMYK. If you need this don’t wait and stick with PS. It may sometime become a replacement for PS Elements but certainly not for CS3, 4 or 5 😉

    @#24 Michel: Save for web support

    Wait… you use Ps for web work??? There’s your problem.

    Fw is the best web design app in existence. Its export to web support is highly optimized for the best quality and smallest file size possible. Ps is a joke when it comes to web design.

    For those who don’t know what the heck Fw is. It stands for Adobe Fireworks.
    FwFTW! ^_^

    I do not know why they would not eventually work on CYMK support. I could see this in 4-5 years with good development and focused work that it could become a photoshop killer.

    Can you imagine having Pixelmator 1.2 Draftsman wallpaper, while using Pixelmator? That would be CRAZY!

    Before stepping to CMYK world, it would be super duper fantastic if you guys implement Save As for Web with the ability to optimize PNG, GIF and JPEG files for web. I have pixelmator license and want to use it for my blogging needs, and this feature is all i ask. I don’t really care for CMYK, i have photoshop to do that, i just want to do little amazing stuff for my little work.

    Good heaven, we have a ruler in not so future and also a pretty grid. Keep up the good work guys.

    I second ncus comments. I also have a license of Pixelmator — to be honest, two licenses, one of which came with MacHeist — and unfortunately I still don’t use it, because of the Save For Web feature. I found myself using ImageWell a lot, although it’s now a paid app, and I’m really trying not to license it.

    Other than that, awesome update, very nice features which will help to spread the word about Pixelmator. I’m updating it right now.

    Thanks a lot.

    Here here! Just add an information hud so I can see what pixels I’m selecting, and it’s bye-bye photoshop for me! Good job on Pixelmator guys!

    Bought Pixelmator as an alternative to Paintshop pro as I moved from PC to MAC and didnt want to go down the route of Photoshop.

    Only after buying it and using it for a day or two did I realise that it cant do even the most basic maniplulation of fonts. No Bold, or Italics and i wont even mention antialiasing! very disappointing.

    Things that need to be addresses before Pixelmator can be used as a profesional RGB image editing platform:

    non-destructive filters and I would think sense there largely core image based that wouldn’t be that hard

    non-destructive transformation, so when you paste a large bitmap or vector image etc. and keep that info (or just a link to the original file so you can revert that image to it’s original state, that way you get much of the benefit of smart objects but I’d imagine that would be much easier to implement (plus I LOVE linked files for the whole change once propagate everywhere thing)

    For the Record the layer masks in pixelmator are very good and the brushes are OK but need the option to +- the size via a keyboard shortcut

    real type support, kerning, tracking leading, etc. (correct me if this stuff exists and I can’t find it) don’t really care if it can do fake bold, etc as that can be accomplished with a stroke and fake italic is just slanted type and also yuckey 😛

    Of course I have no idea is Pexelmator’s code would be suited to this kind of thing but it’s pretty well done so far so I’m a hoping…. and I’d pay at least $150 (happily) for a faster full featured image editor.

    Pixelmator is a breath of fresh air. Having used PS for over a decade, I needed something simple for beginners to help them to make their own websites. Pixelmator does the job without going over the top.
