So the other day I was looking over some sites and happened to find a huge list of different Mac apps for designer.  One of them caught my eye, Pixelmator.  It stated that Pixelmator was Photoshop for the rest of us, as you can see in the slogan under the logo.

I have not been using Pixelmator for about 30days now and found out some really great stuff about it.  First of this is not a full Photoshop replacement app, nor does it want to be.  Pixelmator is geared for image editing, as such it does not have line or shape tools.  It does have a great array of tools for adding some awesome effects to images and even correcting problems. 

Pixelmator is $59 which is really cheap compared to photoshop.  It offers some great tutorials right on the site @ pixelmator.com/learn.
