iMaginator, a low-cost image editor based on CoreImage

iMaginatoriMaginator is another CoreImage-based editing app in the tradition of LiveQuartz, but with one exception: it costs $49. I've used LiveQuartz a bit, and I haven't installed iMaginator yet, but from the screenshots its interface does look like it brings a few more features to the table. Over 108 filters and effects are available (though I don't know how many of those are supplied by CoreImage), you can create QuickTime movies of your images and you'll get free upgrades "for life" if you purchase the app.

If anyone beats me to playing with the demo, feel free to post your thoughts in the commentts.

Also see ChocoFlop ( http://www.chocoflop.com/ ). Features layer masks and other advanced image-editing features in addition to the basic CoreImage filters. Thanks to CoreImage and other OSX native features it can also sport quite a few features ( http://www.chocoflop.com/?page_id=12 ). Note that this is a shameless plug: I wrote that one. It is not a stable release and I haven't had much time to work on it these days but there's a beta you can download on the website. Have fun :-)

I do not consider $49 to be low cost.
