    As a designer you may be interested in PixelStick, which I think is cool, as a developer. Its a floating thingie for getting screen coordinates and distances.



    i noticed it today when i went to the developers site to find info on anudder application entirely.



    Not really just a Tiger app though, but thought that you may have liked it as a graphic person.



    PixelStick

    Hehe. In that case, I use...
    • Transmit to FTP to my sites.

    • Ecto to post to my blogs.

    • NewsFire to read my favorite sites' RSS feeds.

    • Firefox to view web pages.

    • TextMate to write XHTML pages & PHP scripts.

    • VLC to watch porn and TV shows.

    • BitTorrent to download all those TV shows.

    • Adium for chatting with AOL/ICQ peeps.
