I can't remember if I mentioned Picturesque here before, it is a perfect image effect tool that adds modern effects to the images without Photoshop (or Photoshop skills). Picturesque 2.0 adds a number of new features and improvements to Picturesque 1.0.x, the most noticeable ones are the 3D perspective effect as seen in Apple.com, and improved batch options.

Picturesque allows you to beautify the images you have with only a few clicks. Your pictures/image will look gorgeous for web, and very Apple style.


    Totally rewritten for Leopard, using Core Animation to power the graphics engine.
  • New "all-in-one" interface with popup inspector bubbles.
  • New "3D perspective" effect, seen in CoverFlow, Apple.com & iChat AV, etc.
  • New presets feature lets you save and manage styles.
  • Added innovative cropping feature.
  • New thumbnail view makes it easier to work with multiple images.
  • Much improved batch resizing options now appear in the save window.
  • Can now stroke outside, inside or centered.
  • New icon dynamically displays your current image in dock.
  • Edit numbers more precisely now by clicking on them and typing.
  • Image now displays at maximum size possible.
  • Vastly improved performance in importing large amounts of images.
  • Added media browser.
  • Many other additions and changes.

Picturesque 2.0 is priced at US$34.95. You can save 25% off RRP with our coupon code “<tt>applewoods</tt>”. (Coupon code expires on 31st May 2008.) Picturesque 2.0 is not a free upgrade for 1.x users. The upgrade is US$12.95.

Picturesque won Apple Design Award 2007 in the Student Category.

It's got a catchy name. You almost know instantly what it's for. Then again "photoshop" was already taken.
Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.
