Made the switch to mac a while ago and am looking for simple graphic and drawing software for OSX (akin to MS Paint but better). My needs are simple – basic figures for reports mostly, but I want something shareware-y. Any suggestions?

WinDirStat seems more practical, but SpaceSniffer does have the best graphical view. If you don’t care about the directory list, SpaceSniffer is the tool for you.

  1. Verdict: Fotor for Mac is recognized for its web version. It`s one of the best free photo editing apps for Mac, with an option to extend to Fotor Pro version, but the app does not require it and you will not see any built-in ads there.
  2. This free software lets you use both raster and vector graphics and you can switch easily between the two types of artwork.

You could try using Gimp for Mac. I used to use it and it’s a great free alternative to Photoshop.

Gimp is good but it can be complicated for new users. PaintBrush is great for simple stuff. I like having the two buttons for painting but it does the job.

http://www.pixelmator.com/ is very good.

But it isn’t free. It is cheap.

@johnpowell Oh yes it is good. I used to use it until I got Photoshop. Had no use for it then.

if your looking for vector

then inkscape is good.

Here is a really good site. It gives you opensource or free alternatives for all the main commercial software packages based on categories and rates them.

I am running OS X version 10.4.11 and am looking for a simple drawing/illustration application, I used to work with the earlier version of Canvas and it fit my needs easily. Now it seems when all I want is Volkswagen the only things available are Ferraris.
Any suggestions?

Paintbrush http://paintbrush.en.softonic.com/mac is very simple. You should also go to http://www.osalt.com/ and see what they have there. I have not used Canvas so I am not sure what level it is. But that site has a mess of free alternatives. Maybe you can find the right match for you.

I use sketchbook pro with a graphics tablet, pretty simple but effective. It’s not free though.
Also, check out ArtRage . I haven’t tried it yet, but it looks promising.
