macOS Apps/Updates
Johansson Design has announced a collection of Screen Savers for the Mac. The collection offers 15 assorted screen saving animations.
Designs include clocks, color bars, stickers, sport logos, emoji, and many more. This collection “brings back a long-neglected piece of the Mac experience to modern users,” says designer Bjorn Johansson.
Screen Savers requires macOS 10.9 or higher. They’re free and available at the Johansson Design website.
AKVIS has updated ArtSuite, software for applying decoration effects to digital photos, to version 14.
The upgrade offers a number of effect enhancements: a new 3D tab in the Classic frame, combination of the Passe-Partout and the Classic frame, new Edge Color option in the Ragged frame, new Posterizing option in the Halftone effect, and other changes. There are two effect groups in ArtSuit: Frames ranging from classic frames to modern funky edge decors; and Effects, which provide a variety of photo transformation options. Each effect/frame is fully customizable.
On the Mac platform, ArtSuite require macOS 10.7 or higher. It’s available as a standalone application and as a plugin filter for AliveColors, Adobe Photoshop and other image editors.
