Pixelmator releases 1.3.1
Definitely not as big an update as the 1.3 Tempo that we posted about a while ago (although 1.4 Sparkle, we're told, is being worked on right now), but it is free to all users, and in fact ready to download right now in Pixelmator. The app itself costs $59, but if you're looking for something a little more refined than GIMP that's not quite as pricey as Photoshop, it's your new bicycle.

I tried for a moment an earlier version of this program. It changed all my image extensions to be opened by default with pixelmator. All my extensions, PSD, JPG, etc.....I immediately removed the program from my drive. Any company that would make software that does crap that does things like this should be mailed a dead fish.

/Network/Library/Preferences.
Great change for a multi-user environment.
This update was important. And it's good to know that you write about it. ; )
Since the Macheist Bundle I have Pixelmator and use it a few months now. After getting used to it, Pixelmator is quite a fine piece of software.
cool

Wow, can I get a wallpaper version of that photo? Looks scenic and colorful- my favorite!

Might replace fireworks for me due to it's speed and the fact that it has almost all the tools I use frequently now. Also, way better UI than photoshop (not that that's saying much or that it has anywhere near the features to display).

It's not like there's a lot happening in the Apple world these days to report on. Sometimes the news is good and sometimes it's filler, that's the news industry.
