Good info Dave. I'll check out the annotations in Preview. I've never used them.
Kevin - just put together a few pics (done in Preview) to show you the POWER of this free app, many features that most never know about or discover - in the first image below, I've opened a
Gulf of Mexico pic of mine from a recent FL trip - a portion of the image is selected for cropping; the 'Toolbox Icon' opens the lower menu bar - there I've selected the imaging resizing option - SO, the basics that all needs, i.e. cropping and image resizing.
NOW, that's just for starters (keep in mind that multiple images can be opened @ once) - in the second image, I've simply done a few of the numerous choices; added an arrow w/ text (as seen, the colors, fonts, etc. can be easily changed); color adjustments can be also done - to the left are other selection options including a 'magic' lasso; to the far right are the adjustments for varying text/screen colors.
Finally, an inexpensive eBook on my iPad that does a decent job of covering Preview - both the image features and ALSO, PDF file reading options - this is an outstanding app that probably does 90+% of my imaging needs for posting - well worth exploring. Dave
