Comment and replies on Airfoil:
I use this everyday, well worth the money. It means that i can run Internet radio from my radio widget through my stereo without any annoying cables. Perfect :)
This app is rediculously overpriced for what it does. $25? Come on. Bring it down to $15 maybe, and we'll have a look at it.
v2.0.8 is no longer capturing AOL Radio for me :(. Other apps work. Where's the old version at? (Capturing all system audio is a workaround.)
There's a windows version too, I wonder if it would work with foobar2000 under Parallels or Fusion. Apparently there are some problems with foobar2000....
$25 is a lot of money, especially regarded the fact that it adds a functionality Apple should have provided in the first place. But then especially the latest version with the built-in video player does an excellent job. In fact, I've got fewer problems (none, exactly) with AirFoil than with Airtunes. Also, I got excellent, quick feedback with a working solution when AirFoil didn't work with my new Draft-N Airport Express base stations.
Even if it seems expensive at first, it does an excellent job and is well supported.

If you enable The "beta Codec" in the optional settings you will have the most advanced video conferencing that is available. PC magazine says that this coded that is in beta right now is superb and that is much better than Skype Video (obviusly in PCs) as missing for Mac.
It works very well when you do a Mac-Pc conference. The interface is exactly the same in the PC and the Mac. This means that the interface is not very Mac like but it has the advantage that is easy to configure your mother´s sighspeed in a PC by phone.!

I love this small aplication. I was looking for a equivalent of Snagit in the PC and this application is the most similar and useful aplication I found on the Mac.
it´s really useful if you have to edit or comment images. I use it to add comments to images I later send by email.
I use this app quite a bit when I'm resizing images for blog entries, and I don't need to do any fancy editing, balancing, etc. Quite handy...
Brilliant app but it really needs a better icon.
its a little app! Fast, doesn't use much RAM ( CPU ), however, it only has little features. I mostly use it for uploading and watermarking my images. I am running it on Intel, and it works great! You should check this out, but i'd recommed Gimp more.
this is a tool and a half....
i like the older version, but i use this a lot at work.
Oh yes it needs another icon!!! I so hate it when it comes up in the dock that I don't keep it there ... ! Which is kinda stupid I admit ...
A blogger's dream... it's a little awkward but definitely very powerful for its minimalist interface.
An excellent photo editor which I use predominantly to resize images for the web. It does the simple things very well and it saves me opening up Photoshop. You can also crop, watermark, add text and edit your photos or use it as a screen grab tool.
A great timesaver and very easy to use.
Incredibly clever. Pity it doesn't have the Photoshop "Save for Web" command which is just about all I open Photoshop for....
And OMG, why can't they make it less ugly?
I have used version 2 for a long time. It was an essential for me.
Version 3 spoiled the experience completely. I am still using version 2. Right now, I am testing skitch, which might become the successor to ImageWell.
Why can't it handle a width over 2000 pixels???
Unfortunately, not freeware anymore.
(Although 20 dollars is not too expensive for what it does...)
