QuickLook Saves My Photoshop Brush Sanity!

BrushView QuickLook PlugIn | BrushViewQL.

I can’t believe I didn’t know this existed! Here I am, with Leopard on my Macbook for a year, and I didn’t know this existed!

Do you have Leopard? Find a font file on your computer. Click on it once, without opening it. Hit the space bar. You’ll see the contents of the file! Magic!

With this BrushView plugin, you can see the contents of your photoshop brush files, so you don’t have to have every single one of them loaded all the time. My sanity has been saved!

QuickLook- use it, love it!

*edit*

Found a plugin for AI Files, too! YAY! Here.

CS5 Already!?

I just got CS4 last year!! AAAHHH!

Here’s a sneak-peak preview of what’s coming up in CS5. . . interesting stuff with paint & warping. It’s a bit corny, but the techniques are cool.

Wish I’d known about FlexCal before Buying Things.

FlexCal powers iCal with a hotkey. It’s just a preference pane for Mac OSX that allows you to add events or tasks to iCal with a hotkey. And it’s free. Things is super cool for task management, but the hotkey was really what sold me on the program. Now I can do it with iCal, which I already had. Oh well.

It appears that you can only do one or the other, though- events or tasks. And since Things syncs up with iCal’s ToDo’s, maybe it wasn’t a complete waste of money I had at the time. But for those of you who are looking, look into FlexCal before you spend any cash, and just use what you already have. Time will tell which one wins with me, because one of them has to.
