I'm going to try Pixelmator again. There's absolutely no reason why this app should need an installer.

- jjcm 15y agoThe built in GPU acceleration depends on quite a few libraries. Not only that, but the interface is entirely custom (based on air). Photoshop isn't some little stand alone app. It's a 2GB behemoth. Why wouldn't it have an installer?
- mvkel 15y agoMy point was more big-picture. The app shouldn't have an entirely custom Air-based UI when there are great Cocoa libraries available. Hell, even a hybrid with some Cocoa would be better (ala Aperture). It _should_ be a stand alone app at this point. The argument about "people wouldn't want to transfer to the new UI" is conjecture. Film pros have been switching to new versions of Final Cut Pro without complaint.
