Review: Pixelmator – Is it a $59 Photoshop? In many ways it is
Thursday, 16 April 2009. Posted by Saulius.
Pixelmator is a relatively new image editor that delivers many of the core features of Photoshop in an easy to use application that is a virtual steal at $59. It also includes some thoughtful touches that even the mighty Photoshop doesn’t offer. It’s an impressive application that both beginners and professionals can use and enjoy.

This application is learning toward the ‘whats’ I wants as I have Photoshop 7 and CS2 on my Win PC, but I need (actually want) Photoshop 7 on my 13 inch MacBook. At $59.99, I’m trying tout the 30 day trial demo. Pixelmator has ALL the features I desire, but I’m still getting used to it. I’ll most likely be buying it later this month AFTER Heavy Rain on the PS3.
What I love about Pixelmator is the is has layers, and you CAN EDIT text!!! too bad this app will not be on the iPod Touch and be able to go onto the iPad – I WAS and INSTANT BUY until I called apple to confirm. No, you will not be able to install ‘program applications’, but ‘Apps’ from the app store.
Feb 22 can not come sooner!?!? Anyone else dabbling with the full version? Also, if this was PC and able to be portable like The GIMP, I’d buy like 5 copies, seriously – one for me, one for my sister, one for my friend I telecommute (he uses CorelDraw), another artist friend and then a past client so IN CASE I forgot my flashdrive, she’d have her own licensed copy.
