ImageWell V2 for Mac® OS X Now Available With 20
New Enhancements: Still Lean & Still Free
ImageWell is packed with features and has quickly become an essential piece of
software I use daily.— Shelli Auman, Graphic Design-Prepress, The Chronicle,
Onalaska, WA
Merrimack, New Hampshire, USA — May 11, 2004 — XtraLean Software today
announced ImageWell V2, the popular image editing software for quick
manipulation and upload to an iDisk, FTP server, or other web server. Resize,
crop, shape, rotate, and watermark an image. Enhance the image with an
elegant drop shadow, add an annotation, or highlight with labels and arrows.
Screen grab, copy, paste, drag and drop an image into the well, rename, and
send to the server with one click of the button. With automatic copying of
multiple URLs for easy insertion into an HTML document, ImageWell V2 is the
latest in lean, practical web publishing.
"I frequently upload pictures and this is the quickest program I have found that
works so smoothly, I almost take it for granted", said Shelli Auman.
Consumers could spend over $50 on separate shareware apps to crop, resize,
shape, watermark, and send to an iDisk, but ImageWell offers all of this for
free, including full customer support, in one handy application. Optimizing the
tight design featured in V1, V2 delivers twenty new useful enhancements that
will help improve users’ workflow and save time and money.
Leveraging the main menu, ImageWell saves and stores multiple server
locations and offers more choices for setting personal preferences, making
server set up and user specific options easy to manage and organize. The ability
to quickly send the same image to different locations, while removing the
headache of accidentally overwriting another file puts ImageWell in a league of
its own. URL History tops it off allowing users to paste multiple URLs and tags
all at the same time with one click of the mouse.
"I was getting tired of being nickeled and dimed by shareware companies for
$10-$20 apps that can only do one thing. So I created ImageWell V2 for our
loyal users as well as myself", says Hagen Kaye, Co-Founder of XtraLean
Software and Head of R&D.
The new and improved user interface brings a slew of practical tools such as
image rotation, watermarks, drop shadows, more draw objects, and improved
edit capability with web preview. The larger editing canvas lets users place
draw objects outside of the original image area and automatically adjusts the
canvas to fit the new objects. Other exciting new features include Apple-
scriptable functionality, manual resize, more grab options, non-destructible
crop, import directly from digital camera, and more.
ImageWell V2 is available immediately for free download and requires Mac® OS
X v10.2.8 or better. V2 is also available at popular shareware sites. XtraLean
offers customer support services for ImageWell and welcomes all feedback.
Future developments with other applications coming soon from XtraLean can
be found at the company’s website and support forums.
