Mac Photo editing apps?

BB

I want to buy some kind of app through my mac app store that lets me type text onto my photos. Not just words but I want to be able to change the color and the tint etc. Also if there is one that includes extra editing and not ONLY text that would be great. Under $20 please!! :)

I've used photoscape with my pc before i got my mac and loved the text part. if you're familiar with that and there is a mac program similar that is what i prefer! :)

THANKS!!

I like Skitch the best - and it's free.

What is the best photo editing software for MAC?

;

Should I get a photoshop or a mac brand like Aperture?

Answer
As a photographer and also doing photo restoration, I use both Photoshop and Aperture. I take it iPhoto doesn't meet your needs for editing.

Using one or the other is based upon usage. Do you shoot RAW? Do you use a DSLR? How much correction do you do? What type of correction do you do?

I don't know what you know about each software however, personally, I like that Aperture doesn't employ 2 apps as Photoshop does. I also don't use the devices app in Photoshop. However with the detail and amount of restoration I do, I prefer Photoshop. I do not, however, use Photoshop's Bridge, that organizes. Restorations are not integrated into Aperture, and I manage my photographs in Aperture in lieu of using vault.

How will my laptop work with mass amounts of video, photo, and music editing?

John

I recently bought a 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display and had it upgraded to 2.8 GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, with TurboBoost up to 3.8GHz and 768 GB of flash storage. I was wondering how well would it work with massive amounts of photo, video, and music editing along with capability to play intense game with hardcore graphics also to hold a lot of storage of constant 10 to 20 minute long videos added a day, can it do all of this without crashing constantly but rarities are accepted and if storage is the only true problem I am willing to get an external storage device. I am posting this because I am a starting photographer, somewhat a director, a student, and overall entertainer. I also am asking because even though when I did the research it all seemed to check out I was wondering if any experts or people with personal experience could shine some light upon this because I've had many laptops that cant seem to handle extensive editing of all kinds from programs like those created by Adobe, and cant handle the storage for the videos and also crash during downloads of high quality games or during the actual gameplay. I'd like to hear many people's opinions and am open to suggestions. Thank you.

Answer
Files in storage do not cause system crashes. To store massive amounts of data, you will need some external drives. My Mac tower had four internal drives and four external drives. I don't use any of my Mac notebooks for video editing, except a bit of touch up on location. I can't deal with intense editing on a tiny 15" screen.

Notebook computers don't play games at highest level all day without some over-heating.... unless the notebook is almost 2 inches thick (Alienware) to allow large fans and air space inside for cooling.

If you use several high-RAM apps simultaneously, such as Final Cut Pro, Photoshop and Handbrake, the system will use scratch space / virtual memory, and that will cause slow operation, but not necessarily a crash.

Notebook computers are designed for multi-tasking on the go, but in recent years, a trend has skyrocketed for "bolting down" a notebook, and using it as if it were a desktop. It would make much more sense for these people to buy a desktop, like the Mac Pro http://www.apple.com/mac-pro/ or an all-in-one, like the iMac.

So what is a good Editing Software. So you can do things like personality pictures. I do not like photoshop that much because i don't understand it. Thank you for your help.

Answer
There are a number of free image editors out there, both applications and web-based. Each of these is free and has a varying degree of power (and learning curve).

-=+ Web-based +=-
Aviary - http://www.aviary.com/
- Probably my favorite of the online ones

Picnik - http://www.picnik.com/
- Some folks tend to prefer this to Aviary

Sumo Paint - http://www.sumopaint.com/home/
- I use this occasionally, it's got some tools that I like over Aviary

Pixlr - http://pixlr.com/
- Another alternative that might be a little easier to use

Photoshop Express - http://www.photoshop.com/tools?wf=editor
- It's simplified and the UI is significantly different than the Photoshop program. It's not my personal favorite, but it might be worth you checking out.

-=+ Installable Apps +=-
Photoscape - http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php
- The download link is along the top of the page (I missed it the first time)

Paint.NET - http://www.getpaint.net/
- Paint.NET tries to be relatively simple while providing a fairly powerful toolset. It isn't quite as powerful as Photoshop, but its a) free, and b) has slightly less of a learning curve.

GIMP - http://www.gimp.org/
- I'm mentioning it because it's more or less obligatory. Honestly, though, if you found Photoshop too confusing, I'd steer you away from GIMP for now. It's easily the most powerful free image editor, but it's got a _very_ steep learning curve. Feel free to try it, but I'd really point you towards one of the online ones to begin with.
