Easy Crop is a lightweight drag&drop utility to crop images, supporting various image formats. Drag an image you want to resize/crop into Easy Crop, select the required size and drag the result into the application you want it in, e.g. Ecto or Mail. No steps like saving in between. Nice!
What I use it for most of all, is rotating portrait pictures, this never really seems to work from Preview and many other photo apps...

Especially as a companion for the blogging tool Ecto, Easy Crop comes in very handy. Regarding Ecto this function should be built in really. But it isn't. It is no freeware, but the price I think is OK at $15.00 for a family pack.

Print Labels from OS X Address Book

[ MAC ] by Kevin @ 17.10.2007 13:54 CET

A great little freeware app called PearLabelizer does an excellent job where the Address Book isn't quite good enough: Printing all kinds of labels for mailouts.

Eine nette kleine Ergänzung zum Apple Adressbuch, um anständig Etiketten drucken zu können: PearLabelizer.

Hint 1: Add predefined labels like Avery, Zweckform and Herma from the PearLabelizer website. Download and drag & drop the .plld files onto your PearLabelizer preferences window.

Hint 2: Format your font appearance from the keywords in the Address Book tab in the preferences by selecting Keyword e.g. [firstname] and choosing Format from the menu.

Make clean archives for Windows on a Mac

[ MAC ] [ RECOMMENDATIONS ] by Kevin @ 03.06.2007 15:14 CET

Creating ZIP archives on a MAC with the default OS X archiver (ctrl or right-click, create archive) puts files not visible on the MAC (namely .DS_Store and Iconr files) in the ZIP alongside the actual files you want to compress. This looks confusing on the PC and can cause problems with the Windows software for opening / expanding large ZIP files, making the software crash or give out error messages.

So creating ZIP files I want to send to PC / Windows systems I now use a little application called CleanArchiver, - this does the job with drag and drop ease.

CleanArchiver lets you choose what kind of archives you want to make: gzip, bzip2, zip, Disk Image, Stuffit, Stuffit X.
ZIP is the most common method.
