The MacGraPhoto Bundle

I'm pleased to announce that GraphicDesignerToolbox is participating in the MacGraPhoto bundle. This bundle started today 16 november, and runs until 30 november. It's a collection consisting only of graphics applications, so it spans very wide. I have yet to try out all the programs myself.

I was contacted by Kosta Rozen from Apparent Software a few months ago, if I was interested joining this exciting project. A really great initiative. The interest for MacGraPhoto seems to be massive.

Original price is $251. Bundle price is $39.99. It's an incredible amount of money you save.

File Manager - My new project

I really need a good file manager. Since I haven't been able to find one, I have decided to code one myself. There are still a looong way to go before it can replace the Finder, but it's starting to take shape. On my A500 I had Direcory Opus and later on my 486DX2 66MHz I used Norton Commander, these two filemanagers was addictive because of their clever 2 panel layout and easy navigation.

This is how it looks like. And yes.. I need to find some better colors. So the first goal for this project is to put together an absolutely minimal version that is usable. No tabs, no FTP, no bookmarks, nothing. Reaching this point is getting much closer.

Anybody here that have used Norton Commander?

Now there are 95 blocks!

An hour ago I uploaded version 1.1.2 of GraphicDesignerToolbox. Having tried out Apple Shake for the first time a few days ago I got really inspired for writing some new blocks, so in this release there are 5 new blocks and the Mix block has be seriously extended with the same compositing modes as in Shake.

I have made a comparison of similar mac programs.
