Do you remember the Core Image demo at WWDC 2004? There was that little application called “Core Image Fun House” they used to demo the new core image feature. Later the fun house was included with Tiger to play around for everyone (…/Developer/Applications/Graphics Tools/).
While Core Image was done for OS X developers to use in their apps and the fun house not much more than a fun little application to play around with the different filters, many expected something like Photoshop sooner or later from Apple or some other dev house. Now that didn’t happen for various reasons, but at least there’s now a small and free application that will find some users here and there.
The application I’m talking about is Image Tricks. Basically just an interface to the core image filters and definitely not a replacement for Photoshop, but if you just need to optimize and enhance some of your digicam shots from time to time, than maybe this very simple and clean application could be exactly what you need.
