Imagerie is here to help you with image-processing needs, whether you're producing professional presentations or sending e-mails to family and friends.
We think you shouldn't have to take evening classes or spend hours reading a manual to put together a project or letter that is polished and professional.
We designed Imagerie with your daily image editing tasks in mind. Tasks like enhancing, cropping and exporting an image for a weblog entry, article or a presentation. These common time consuming tasks are now streamlined and easy. We built Imagerie so you don't
What's New
Version 2.0:
Improved user interface
Improved performance
Improved bitmap editor with many new tools
New feature : Group, ungroup
New feature : align objects on a grid
New feature : Library (drag and drop objects from any document)
My problem with this developer is that they provide no means of downloading prior versions of their software. There are still many of us out there running Mac OS 10.5.8 on Power PC machines, mine being a G5 quad that I paid a few grand for. Their response to my inquiry was to go buy a new machine. Apparently, they have no concept of the current economic conditions in this country.
I'm very disappointed in Imagerie, it's supposed to be an upgrade to myPhotoEdit but lacks many of it's features. Also in myPhotoEdit, Auto Edit, Auto Enhance, and Auto Levels worked well. in Imagerie, they don't work for me at all. See no difference in appearance at all. Also the sharpness setting does no seem to do anything.
I had high hopes for Imagerie but its nowhere near the image editor app4mac is marketing it as. I was excited about the layers and vector tools only to be disappointed by how little you can actually do with them. I loved myPhotoEdit for its simplicity, stability and features. Imagerie seems to be stripped of all that MPE had and replaced by "features" that don't work very well. I'll continue to use MPE until it no longer runs. But, I've given up on Imagerie.
Be very careful with this app. I purchased the prior incarnation of their editing software which they killed when they bought this product from another developer. They gave me a license for 1.1 of Imagarie as part of their "Free upgrades for a lifetime" guarantee, but now that they've moved to the App store, they refuse to upgrade users to the 1.2 version.
So the "Free upgrades for a lifetime" guarantee is really just for as long as they feel like it. Beware of the shady business practices and you will find better apps for the same or less money.
I've got a very similar problem. I got moved from plexoo to imagerie when they killed the former product. Imagerie is slow and bloated by comparison - and their (we fixed it) update isn't showing up. Kinda bummed here.
Your comment is not FAIR. You got a free upgrade from Plexoo to Imagerie 1.0 and it's not nice? It was already a nice gesture from us. We give a hand and you want the full harm?
Are these guys serious? They want me to hand over $30 without a trial version? I wonder if they buy cars without test driving them. ?For this kind of money, I can upgrade to GraphicConverter 7, after I take their TRIAL version for a spin.
When you report a problem via the iTunes store, the options they give you are as follows:
1. I didn't receive this item
2. I inadvertently purchased this item
3. This item does not function as expected
4. I already own this item
5. This item was labeled incorrectly
6. My concern isn't listed here (with box to explain)
Odd, but nowhere do I see the option of "I was not happy with the application." As if that explanation is going to fly in the first place. So, I either lie or hope Apple will accept my rationale of unhappiness.
And since all of the articles I found that describe this "simple" process caution us not to abuse this process - and I'm unclear as to how many requests constitute an "abuse" - it's conceivable that I cannot really "demo" very many of these pay-up-front products before Apple won't let me do so anymore and will stop issuing refunds.
And then, if I do get lucky, I get to wait at least a week before Apple even decides, and then I get to wait even longer before a refund shows up in my bank account. In the meantime, I no longer have access to the money that I might have spent on a competing product that did allow a trial version and that might have satisfied what I was looking for.
And this is the new form of "demo" for an app? Buyer beware. Be very aware.
No, I don't like it anymore. Moapps Version was nice and easy to use with fast results, but now it's just one of these pic-editors with bad usability and weird menus. Too bad.
That depends on whether the beta version expires or not. Beta software that expires should be considered a demo or trial, but beta software that continues to work indefinitely can be considered free. As Google taught us, the word "beta" is often just semantic labeling, and doesn't always reflect a product's usability or stability.
If the copy of software you download will continue to run without limitation, then that piece of software is free. The maker of free (as in beer) software doesn't have to guarantee an update path in order for it to be free now. If you get to keep and use, without crippling, what you get now, it is free now.
They shouldn't be penalized for saying that they are likely to charge for _future_ versions of the software. Plenty of freeware has become commercial, or started a commercial version, once the developer is spending more and more time on it. Under the "free updates or it isn't free now" rule, you could never know whether the label "free" has any meaning. The only definition that makes sense, and isn't rendered meaningless, is: "What you get right now without paying will continue to be yours, without limitation or crippling."
I liked myPhotoEdit and was sad to hear that moapp sold it. However; this app does look promising and has lots more features than myPhotoEdit has. I'm crossing my fingers that app4mac keeps its word and gives registered users of myPhotoEdit a free license for the finished product.

We designed Imagerie with your daily image editing tasks in mind. Tasks like enhancing, cropping and exporting an image for a weblog entry, article or a presentation. These common time consuming tasks are now streamlined and easy. We built Imagerie so you don't have to be a professional image editor to take advantage of its power.
Our goal was to make all of your tasks as easy to perform as possible. Imagerie was designed and built to be fast, flexible and intuitive. There are no complex windows or hidden features, everything is simple and clear. Imagerie makes it fast and easy for anyone to edit an image. Its features range from basic enhancement to the implementation of high-end filters for sophisticated projects.
Speed matters and that is why we built Imagerie with a modern engine and a host of powerful tools to manage your images. Because of this modern core, we can now add new features very quickly. Version 1.1 is still just the beginning!Just because Imagerie is fast and intuitive doesn't mean the results are ordinary, quite the opposite is true. With Imagerie, anyone can produce world-class results in a matter of seconds.
Photo editing isn't a chore anymore, Imagerie is here! Imagerie is built for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. It runs on Intel Macs only. Imagerie uses Core Image technology. Because your graphics card/GPU handles the calculations, Imagerie doesn't drain your CPU. The better your graphics card/GPU, the faster Imagerie processes your image or applies a filter.

Why did app4mac kill plexoo (a great "does one thing well" app) for this mish-mash of a photo editor?
I know the 1.2 menus are supposed to be less confusing, but I can't access them because the update isn't showing up!
