    I’d bookmark this site if I were you guys. The Photoshop Tutorials are top notch here. There’s even another Pixelmator tutorial showing how to recreate the default Leopard Desktop.

    Very interesting. You guys should build stuff like this into the documentation.

    Pixelmator needs more tutorials like this. I can find many instructions for Photoshop, but I’m not interested in it. Maybe some Pixelmator (e)book? I’m a beginner and I can pay ~$25 for a Pixelmator guide. I know you’ve published Introduction to Pixelmator but it is not what I’m looking for.

    Never mind – Pixelmator is GREAT 🙂

    I’m really late on mentioning this, but congrats on your well-appreciated web design skills. You’re in the top 0.5% of websites at commandshift3.com & were on the top 10 list back in October of 2007: http://commandshift3.com/leaderboard/month/2007/10

    Keep up the good work & the great product.

    Lovely looking tutorial, nice one.

    Shame it uses some Leopard specific filters though. Maybe it should mention that for us non-Lep users (I’m on an ibook 12.1 so can’t swap over). Must remember the filter for the future though when I do get the chance to do it top to tail.

    Apart from that: very cool.

    Very bad tutorial. It’s incomplete and doesn’t explain anything. May be “very fast” for someone who already knows what they are doing, but definitely not a tutorial for the rest of us.

    Fail.

    The tutorial is broken which is a great shame. I’m just trying out Pixelmator and the tutorial has left me very frustrated. Not a good experience.
