Why won't AppleWorks paint let me do this?

DVaris223 · May 3, 2007

Okay, I've been getting on the more creative side and decided I wanted to take a picture I took of Times Square and edit it. Fairly simple, nothing extravagant, just to make it look cool. I've been playing around with it in AppleWorks Paint, but for some reason, the "Transform" options do not work after I change the amount of pixels across and down. I'm stumped

AppleWorks no longer comes bundled with Mac OS in the Intel range, so I'm sorry for not answering your querie, but are you using Tiger?

If you have 10.3.9 or later you and want to do some basic editing you should try SeaShore

OR

ImageWell

If your iBook meets these specs:

1 GHz G4 or better, Mac OS X 10.4 or later, Growl installed.

You could try ChocoFlop.

Unfortunately I'm not. Figures! It's so hard to find stuff for my OS nowdays ]=

What OS version are you running DVaris?

Graphic Convertor is pretty cool and this version is for OS 8.x/9.x

It's free to try but has a nag screen until you buy the full program which is $30.

AppleWorks is still available for $80 on the Apple Store. It runs just fine in Rosetta on a Macintel.

It is, however, a dead end--there will never be an upgrade.
