cf/x photo mosaic 1.3
Jun 03, 2011 -- Andrea Delvecchio

I mosaici che si possono ottenere sono da subito -anche senza smanettare troppo con le impostazioni- davvero belli e spesso rendono affascinante anche una fotografia che inizialmente ci poteva sembrare poco significativa. Le ampie possibilità di personalizzazione poi fanno sì che difficilmente ci annoieremo, perché a fronte della disponibilità infinita di soggetti che possiamo immortalare con la nostra fotocamera, avremo una miriade di possibili mosaici da creare, sempre nuovi e sempre diversi.

cf/x alpha 1.2
Jan 07, 2011 -- Adam C. Engst

For those who like to arrange and tweak images without the effort of learning Photoshop, cf/x Software’s image composition tool cf/x alpha just received a notable update. cf/x alpha 1.2 gains a new Arrange by Shape feature that creates a collage from user-specified images based on any user-definable shape. It also features four new collage generators that can turn hundreds of images into a heap, scatter them across the canvas, sweep them toward a corner, or assemble them in a grid—all of which are easy to envision but tedious to carry out manually.

DealBITS Drawing: Win a Copy of cf/x alpha 1.0
Dec 06, 2010 -- Adam C. Engst

I’m about to embark on another calendar production project in iPhoto, and although I generally don’t do much editing of the images I choose, apart from cropping and the basic adjustments iPhoto can make, I’m really tempted to do some additional work in a tool I just learned about, cf/x Software’s cf/x alpha. It’s an image processing tool tweaked toward transparency and blending, enabling a variety of effects that might be difficult to replicate in other programs, ranging from blended collages to mosaics.
In essence, cf/x alpha lets you take one or more images and arrange them into a single new image, using cropping, scaling, zooming, and blending to create a pleasing composition. The software doesn’t just provide basic tools, but has more than 20 customizable blend generators and 70 configurable effects, and it even offers professional composing tools that internalize ways of maximizing impact like the Rule of Thirds and the Fibonacci Spiral. Once you’re done, you can export to many file formats, send images via email, or upload to Flickr. (...)

Savescreenie 2.0 for Mac
Oct 18, 2010 -- Jason Parker

Savescreenie is a free, user-friendly front-end to access an undocumented feature in Mac OS: namely, the ability to save screen captures (typically grabbed with Command+Shift+4 or Command+Shift+3) in a variety of formats, instead of just the default PNG format (or PDF, if you're using Mac OS 10.5).
When you open Savescreenie, you're given a list of 10 formats to choose from (PDF, PNG, JPG, JP2, TIFF, TGA, BMP, PSD, PCT, and GIF), or you can reset the format to the default for the Mac OS you're using. The app also includes links to general information on the Web about each format. In addition to changing the default format for screenshots, Savescreenie lets you change the default save location and the default base file name (...)

Savescreenie 2.0.0
Sep 16, 2010 -- Dan Frakes

By default, Mac OS X saves screenshots—images you take of your Mac’s screen—to your Desktop folder in PDF (in 10.5) or PNG (in 10.4 and 10.6) format. Back in 2005, I covered three utilities for changing these settings, choosing EGO Systems’ Screenshots Preference Pane as my favorite over cf/x’s Savescreenie and Bruce Phillips’ Screenshot Settings, mainly because Screenshots Preference Pane let you easily choose both a different format and a different location for saved screenshots. Savescreenie offered only the former feature, and Screenshot Settings’ interface wasn’t as nice.
Thanks to our friends over at TidBITS, I learned that Savescreenie was recently updated, and the new version, Savescreenie 2, offers more features, works well with the latest versions of OS X, and is easier to use. It’s become my utility of choice for changing OS X’s built-in screenshot settings (...)

Savescreenie 2.0
Sep 14, 2010 -- Adam C. Engst

Long ago, our article "How to Change Screen Capture Formats" (27 June 2005), prompted Christian Franz to create a small utility called Savescreenie to ease the process of changing Mac OS X's default screenshot format. Five years later, Christian's cf/x Software has released the free Savescreenie 2.0. It now supports a number of additional file formats (10 in all), and enables you to set the default location and base name for screenshots. Savescreenie 2.0 requires Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard or later and works on both Intel- and PowerPC-based Macs. So if you prefer a screenshot format other than Mac OS X's default of PNG, or would prefer that your screenshots end up somewhere other than on the Desktop, give Savescreenie a try (...)

plugs-n-pixels: alpha
Jul 14, 2010 -- Mike Bedford

cf/x alpha is an application that is specifically designed for image composition. But what exactly is image composition? Put simply, it is the task where you take one or more images and arrange them into one new image. Often, this requires that you crop, zoom, scale, and blend multiple individual images into each other. cf/x alpha provides a host of simple yet powerful tools to do just that. With just a few simple mouse clicks you can take a folder of images and arrange and blend them into a new composition (...)

cf/x AG has released cf/x alpha, software for creating composite images.
The package, targeted to graphic artists, bloggers, Web designers, small photo studios, and advanced amateurs is designed to simplify the process of assembling multiple images into new compositions.

You can apply blends, transitions, and transparency in real time and resize, zoom, pan, and rotate your images.
