So today I bought another piece of code, and this time its written by a student. Albeit a talented one. It really is so easy to find great applications on the mac.

Picturesque : is an application designed to make images look gorgeous for the web. With an animated “drag and drop” style interface, Picturesque can beautify your images with reflections, soft glows, shadows, delicate curves, strokes and fades in less time than it takes to open Photoshop.

Simple example below, it does the curves and reflections all in a few seconds. Everything is adjustable from simple sliders.
