However, there is one missing: <a href="http://www.chocoflop.com/screenshots/">ChocoFlop</a>, a <span class="chocolinks">CoreImage-based, realtime, non-destructive, high dynamic range Image and Photo Editing Application for Mac OS X.<br /> <br /> </span>Some of ChocoFlop's features:<br /> - Very fast launch time (about 1 or 2 second on cheapest mac mini)<br /> - Written from scratch for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_10.4">Mac OS X 10.4+</a><br /> - No legacy or compatibility slow code<br /> - Uses all hardware acceleration (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altivec">CPU</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit">GPU</a>)<br /> - <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/universal_binary/">Universal binary</a> for PowerPC and <a href="http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2005/jun/06intel.html">Intel</a><br /> - Uses <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_Image">CoreImage</a> and custom <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opengl">OpenGL</a> code.<br /> - The download is about one megabyte (zipped) so far and will remain in that range (translation will probably increase this).<br /> <br /> Yup, I am using it with no problems and BTW,&nbsp; ChocoFlop and <a href="http://www.flop.ca">Flop.ca</a> are not related :) osx http://weblog.flop.ca/2007/07/14/1184425281002.html#comments http://weblog.flop.ca/2007/07/14/1184425281002.html Sat, 14 Jul 2007 15:01:21 GMT
