Photomatix Pro 3.1b6 - Extends dynamic range of digital photos/scanned films. (Demo)

Photomatix Pro 3.1b6 - Extends dynamic range of digital photos/scanned films. (Demo): "

Photomatix Pro 3.1b6
Photomatix Pro extends the dynamic range of digital photographs or scanned films. If you have ever shot a high contrast scene, you probably know the problem: blown out highlights and loss of contrast in shadows. Photomatix offers two ways to solve this:

  • Exposure blending: combining images taken at different exposures into one image with increased dynamic range
  • Tone Mapping: processing a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image to compress its tonal range while preserving local contrast.


The result is an image that you can display on standard monitors, while preserving the details of the original scene in highlights and shadows.

 
The trial is fully functional and never expires. However, a watermark will be applied to images produced via Tone Mapping, 48-bit Compression and 4 of the 6 combination modes. All other features are free to use.

Transmission 1.34 - BitTorrent client. (Free)

Transmission 1.34 - BitTorrent client. (Free): "

Transmission 1.34
Transmission has been built from the ground up to be a lightweight yet powerful BitTorrent client. Its simple, intuitive interface is designed to integrate tightly with whatever computing environment you choose to use. Transmission strikes a balance between providing useful functionality without feature bloat. Furthermore, it is free for anyone to use or modify. Transmission is open source (MIT license).


These days, bandwidth is a precious commodity. Transmission allows you to ration this commodity efficiently. You might want to queue your torrents for maximum performance. Or throttle their speed during peak periods. Transmission easily lets you do both, and thus only works its hardest when you want it to.


Support for Growl notifications and dock badging keep you updated with what's going on so you can get back to doing more important things.


If you are interested in helping out the Transmission project in any way, we encourage you to head over to our development page. The current developers welcome anybody who is interested in implementing new features, documentation, or translations.

Applejack 1.5 - endlich

Mein liebstes Aufräumtool ist endlich fit für 10.5 und darüber.

Saugen hier!


AppleJack 1.5 - Troubleshooting/repair utility. (Free): "

AppleJack 1.5
AppleJack is a user friendly troubleshooting assistant for Mac OS X. With AppleJack you can troubleshoot a computer even if you can't load the GUI, or don't have a startup CD handy. AppleJack runs in Single User Mode and is menu-based for ease of use.


Using AppleJack, you can repair your disk, repair permissions, validate the system's preference files, and get rid of possibly corrupted cache files. In most cases, these operations can help get your machine back on track. The important thing is that you don't need another startup disk with you. All you need to do is restart in Single User Mode (SUM), by holding down the command and s keys at startup, and then typing applejack, or applejack auto (which will run through all the tasks automatically), or applejack auto restart (which will also restart the computer automatically at the end of the process).
