Just converted a few THOUSAND 14bit microscope images to 16 bit using @retrobatch from @flyingmeat. I can’t even imagine the amount of time it saved me!

I’m blown away. Feature request for Acorn image editor forms in my head, I email request to @flyingmeat. 23 minutes later I have that exact feature running on my computer. Always listens. Pragmatic. There is a lot to be said about working with indie developers!

Big shout out for Retrobatch by @flyingmeat. Anytime I have a large folder of images I need to perform a bunch of transformations on, I'm amazed at how simple and alarmingly fast Retrobatch is at letting me define them and get my work done. 10/10 would recommend!

Good news, Apple released Security Update 2021-003 Catalina yesterday for 10.15.7, and it appears to have fixed the regression which broke Acorn 6 and below. You can grab it from Software Update in Sys Prefs. I will now try to (unsuccessfully) forget this ever happened.

Better Image Optimization by Restricting the Color Index buff.ly/2RYMn6c If you use Acorn by @flyingmeat, which you should, then this article shows you how to reduce PNG file sizes of e.g. decorative elements by reducing and indexing the colors in the PNG. Very cool!

Trying to edit a 230MB tiff image but the image edit program kept crashing. Had that forehead to keyboard 🙄 moment when I remembered I should have been doing this in @flyingmeat @acornapp which of course had no problems. Just love that app.
