Popular image editing app Pixelmator has released version 2.2., which brings slew of new features to the already powerful program. The update comes with an expanded collection of shapes and tools to manipulate them, enhanced gradient palettes, and a new paint selection tool among the more than 100 new features. The Text as Shape feature in particular looks like it will be a lot of fun to play with.
At $14.99, Pixelmator is a steal of a design tool for people who can't justify dropping hundreds of dollars a year to rent a Photoshop license. We'll have a comprehensive review of Pixelmator 2.2 and its new features up later this month. In the meantime we've included a few videos from Pixelmator explaining a few of the new features.
