Image Resize is now 100% Snow Leopard compatible. I recompiled for Snow Leopard and added some features.  You can now convert images just by giving it the file extension you desire.  Most popular file formats supported. Jpg,Jpeg,PNG, Gif, Bmp,etc.  You can convert and resize to most formats.

You can download the new updated version for the low, low, price of FREE! Click the image in the sidebar to the right or click this Link.

I ran across this Wacom commercial. I think I might have seen another video like this one. Either way, it blows me away. Hope it inspires you to get out there and create some artwork.

• Step 1: Create a new image (something like 500 X 200 is good here, you can crop the result later). Make sure the RGB mode is selected, now click ok!• Step 2: Go to Filter>> Render>> Clouds. Then go to Filter>> Render>> Difference Clouds.
Press Ctrl + F (Command + F for Mac users) about 5 or 6 times.

• Step 3: Go to Filter>> Blur>> Radial Blur and use these settings:
Amount: 51, Blur Method: Zoom, Quality: Best or Good.

• Step 4: Go to Filter>> Texture>> Patchwork. Set the Square Size to 1 and the Relief to 2. Then go to Filter>> Sharpen>> Sharpen.

• Step 5: Duplicate the layer (Layer>> Duplicate) and just use the default settings. Next, go to Filter>> Stylise>> Extrude. Use the following settings:
Type: Blocks, Size: 5, Depth: 30, Random. Keep the boxes below that unchecked.

• Step 6: Go to Filter>> Blur>> Gaussian Blur and set the radius at 0.7. Now change the layers opacity to 50% and merge the layers (Crtl+E is merge).

• Step 7: Now it’s time to add some color. Press Ctrl + U, check the ‘Colorize’ box and simply move the sliders around until you get a nice color. Also, hit Ctrl+L to change things until you get the lighting how you want it.

That’s it! I hope this helps. Remember to keep coming back.
