OSX Paint Like Application

As I mentioned in a previous post, I’m amazed that there isn’t a simple MS Paint like application included with OSX. There is Gimp (requires X11) and commercial applications but I don’t need anything so beefy. 90% of my needs are image format converting (tiff, eps, bmp, jpg, gif, ico and more), canvas scaling, maybe a cropping here or there and of course drawing mustaches on coworkers.

Pixen Image EditorAfter more searching I did finally find something that seems to have my minimal criteria and is open source - Pixen.

It’s no Adobe Photoshop or Gimp, but it is beefier than MS Paint and is so far cutting the mustard.

OSX users can download the dmg here.
