We are in January 2010 and still nothing !
It shows well how serious this developer his ! He did exactly the same with the actual version b8 released in October 2009. It took him 2 years to release it knowing it was supposed to be available for Christmas 2007 !!!
So we can expect its released for the "next week-end" of December 10th in 2011 !
Seriously, if he has nothing to update or to release, why did he wrote this on his site ???
This application could have great potential, but actually is unstable, buggy and not really usable, not speaking about the interface not really in accordance with the Mac OS X standards.
It was also suposed to get compatibility with Adobe Photoshop plug-ins, but actually, nothing, GraphicConverter does have it, even if it not perfect, it is actually better than what Pixel gives !
If it was free, well we could try to understand, but since it is supposed to be a paying software, with absolutely NO support from its developer, save your time, your time, and go to something else, you have the choice with Pixelmator, PhotoLine, Acorn ...

Development has ceased. No new updates in a year or so. No news. Check out the forums on the web site, filled with irate users.
It doesn't matter what else you choose, but not this app.

I now tested it on an intel Mac and while I think this app is very promising and will probably be sued to oblivion by Adobe, because it is almost a 1:1 copy of Photoshop, I have my problems with it being so completely alien to OS X that I can't use it in its current state.
I might as well us GIMPshop, because that's a free graphics editor that also feels somewhat like Photoshop but doesn't feel like an OS X app either.
If you want to win over the Mac crowd make this an app that looks and feels like a good OS X citizen otherwise you won't have much luck on this platform.

While being temped to rate this according to my (short) experience with this program, I would find it pointless to rate something which leaves me left with a visual impression ranging from non-existent to none... except for an application icon.
Please make this a MAC application :)
As an aside (the product probably doesn't deserve it, but) it *does* look very promising and all, yet alas the hassles of getting it to *work* would surely leave any inquirer stuck in the door, so to speak.
I'm sorry for my scepticism. And I'd be happy to deny my current opinion, should I evaluate a smoother revision sometime in the future.

Intel demo supports PNG, both demo versions will be updated soon.
The developper told me also it will be more integrated in Mac OS X for next releases, not done yet because it is cross platform, and Mac needs a special development for that, but planed anyway.
missing localization.
At this price, it is a better software than photoshop elements or GIMP, and accessible. i think some comments should remain reasonable compared to the price and the available functions and the ease of use.
Wait for the Mac OS X desktop integration and we will see.
"
new versions for MacOSX, both PPC and Intel can open/save PNG files.
These are available for customers for now, but new demo version should
be available shortly.
I'm planning to add native Menubar for MacOSX, but since you know Pixel
is cross-platform this is another difference I have to handle on Mac.
There is a preview when you open files, simply expand the File open
dialog by clicking on "
