I would use Pixelmator together with Aperture. Both together would build a strong alliance against Lightroom/Photoshop. TJust love the UI of Pixelmator. It´s the graphics apllication Apple should have done.

P.S.: Thumbs up for your wonderful blog. I threw out 3 other Apple blogs out of my reader after I found yours.

I’m looking for an alternative to Photoshop since I switched to my Mac. I used the demo of Pixelmator and I liked it from the beginning. It has such a nice UI and just looks fancy. If I would win the license I finally could get rid of GIMP

I would use it on my notebook, because I can install my Photoshop CS3 just on my Mac Pro. Thanks for this Adobe.

Pixelmator would be a perfect prasent for a friend of mine!

He is a hoppy fotographer and it would be exactly the perfect for his needs.
It’s very easy to use too.

I once chose Acorn over Pixelmator which turned out to be the wrong choice for me. Never got to like its user interface.
Pixelmator would have been the right choice for me in the first place.

Hi - I am a part time mature art student and have just been given my first MAC (a laptop) which I totally love - I have used photoshop on my PC but would love to have the licence for Pixelmator which I have been using on trial for a couple of weeks - I would use it for just about all of my artwork on the computer- editing photos and stills from films I’ve made to improving my blog layout. It is so easy to use - the interface is terrific - the pixelmator website is impressive and I am learning lots of new things from their new learning page of tutorials. It has deffinately won me over
Also because I am doing this art degree I am on a very low wage and this would be really helpful support for me
Thanks for this offer and here’s hoping for one of the licences

Hello, I’m also on a design school, and I love making webdesigns.
At home I have to use the GIMP, but I try to use photoshop at school.
My Pixelmator demo expired, but it was great to use. it launches so fast and the interface is just so simple while the program has so much functions. I would just love to be able to use it at home for my web designs and possibly some photo editing for school.

i’d use pixelmatorin my daily workflow as a motion designer.
Photoshop is way too expensive for what i need, and pixelmator would fit perfectly in te budget/features equation.
plus, you gotta support good mac software, right?

A very exciting giveaway! I would use it for 1) Network documentation thru editing screen shots 2) editing photos for personal use

I’m a university professor and I do research on sign languages — American Sign Language, Italian Sign Language, and recently Saudi Sign Language. I would use Pixelmator to design the textbook and journal article images that I need to work up to display in graphic form the movements of signs.

I am a Web Designer and I use Photoshop at work. I plan to do some freelance work on my own but I cannot afford Photoshop. Pixelmator would be ideal for me to start my own website and freelance business. I would use it for all my websites.

I am a Computer Programmer and I seriously would ditch my Photoshop copy if I had a Pixelmator license in hands. I’ve tried the Pixelmator demo and was pitiful when the trial period ended… Cya

Me too please! Pixelmator is a great image editor. I’m tired of using Seashore and all that other crap. Pixelmator is what Photoshop should have been. I hope Apple nabs these guys and bundles Pixelmator with Mac OS X. Until then, I’d like that free license!

   

John Davis May 10, 2009 at 7:39 pm

It’l give me one more reason to switch to a Mac and do my web design in more pleasing environment!

   

Ron T Brown May 10, 2009 at 8:16 pm nevisron@twitter.com

I’m an aspiring photo journalist and I would use Pixelmator in my work flow to replace Photoshop Elements. Pixelmator’s use of the Mac OS’s Core technologies makes it fell more Mac like in it’s approach to photo editing and the program’s design and interface are on par with Apple’s own in house iLife prgrams.

   

Milind Alvares May 12, 2009 at 11:11 pm soggysh.it

Results are out. Alex wins the license for his comment. And Toby Sommer (@dreamshocker) for the retweet. We’ll be contacting you soon. Thanks for writing in everyone!
