Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Yeah, no one one ever pick that one on purpose. I learned it from another graphics person.
Hmm. So I'd need to get Photoshop, eh? Sigh.
I've been wanting to make a "book" of my trip pictures (at least, the highlights), but definitely want them to look nice!!
Nah, most image editing software has some form of sharpen function. It may take some digging to find it.
The iPhoto that comes with iLife 05 has very nice image manipulation functions in it. I rarely use Photoshop to adjust pictures anymore.
If you don't wanna pay for Photoshop, there's always The Gimp. Very powerfull. On the downside, it's not the easiest thing to learn, and if you wanna run it on a Mac, you have to have some form of the X Windowing System installed. Apple's X11.app is probably best.
Gimp for OS X: [link]
The Gimp is not for the faint of heart.
Also, I have NEVER been able to get the Gimp to run on my PowerBook, despite having everything set as it should be.
Damn it.
What version of OS X does it have?
I spent many hours trying to get it to run on my iBook (back when it was on 10.2). Then I discovered that The Gimp requires at least 10.3.
Hmm. So what I'm hearing, Rob, is...buy iLife05? :)
We'll see...
