From: Robert Peirce on 31 Mar 2010 21:22 I had a situation where I needed one or the other. Ken Rockwell showed a way to add your address to the wallpaper on an iPod Touch that I thought was pretty cool. I was able to get the image on my MBP, but then I had to figure out what to do next. He used PS, which I don't have. PDFpen allowed me to write on the image and save it as a PDF. GC would have allowed me to convert that to a jpg or tif, but I didn't have GC either. Grab allowed me to grab the part I needed and save it as a tiff. I imported that into iPhoto, synced and turned the image into wallpaper.

Ebay? typically about $50 or so, and it's often bundled for free with hardware like cameras, scanners, etc.

I still use the classic version of GraphicConverter on a computer that still runs an older operating system. So, GC may have changed. But, the version of GC that I have is shareware. I downloaded the thing from an FTP site, tried it out, and liked it. The fully paid version has more features that are unlocked when you pay the fee. If it still works the same, why not download a copy and try it? It's not like it costs anything to try it out. -- -Glennl Please note this e-mail address is a pit of spam, and most e-mail sent to this address are simply lost in the vast mess. |
