I'm looking for a good shareware/inexpensive paint program for OS X. I want to use it to draw a background for my next game. Does anyone have a recommendation? |
| ||
GIMP - Great paint program. It is free, open source, and available for Mac, Linux, and Windows. |
| ||
I've looked around lately, beacuse my Photoshop licence is on Windows, and ended up with Pixelmator from http://www.pixelmator.com/ I'm quite happy with it. |
| ||
Photoshop Elements gets my vote. But I guess it depends on your definition of inexpensive... |
| ||
I personally use Fireworks, but as you're after an inexpensive option, GIMP gets my vote. |
| ||
for pixeling: pixen |
| ||
Acorn |
| ||
I give a third to GIMP! |
| ||
Another vote for pixelmator. It's a great team player when designing iPhone games. Also, it was developed on a Mac and only supports a Mac. None of this cross-platform crap from the dark side :) |
| ||
You might try this one: http://www.pixlr.com/editor |
| ||
Pixelmator in my opinion is the best shareware paint program on OSX. http://www.pixelmator.com/ |
| ||
Pixelmator again! |
| ||
Pixelmator or Paintbrush (which is free). |
| ||
I just hope that one of the next updates of Pixelmator will introduce a proper text tool. |
| ||
Seashore is okay for more straightforward work. |
| ||
Btw a little update is available: http://www.pixelmator.com/weblog/ |
| ||
New update which a.o. now supports webp. |

x2 for gimp. It is as close as you can really get to photoshop without photoshop (even has a couple of nicknacks that PS doesn't have) I use both. Last edited 2011 |
