This is a great alternative to PhotoShop Elements and in many cases is
better. The tutorials on the Pixelmator home page are great too and can really
help the novice get into using the software to it's fullest capacity. While not
nearly as robust as the full version of PhotoShop CS4, it comes close enough for
the average CS4 user for most tasks. Pixelmator also outputs .psd files so you
can use it collaboratively with other Photoshop users, Final Cut, Motion, After
Effects and more.
