It’s been a while since I last posted about Fun Photos 2.0, so I’d like to start today by talking a bit about our new non-destructive photo editor. It’s taking a lot longer than we anticipated and right now it’s almost been completely re-written. In fact huge chunks of the program were pulled out and tossed into a virtual garbage can, while we custom designed and developed new slicker, more flexible and faster parts.

Want to send a truly original interactive Christmas Card this year? Well, what about a Photo Cube Christmas Card? If you’re Grandma is anything like mine, she loves these cards. You can still include your season greeting, but Grandma or your recipient can cut out and make a beautiful Photo Cube. The card even includes the instructions for making the cube.
These instructions are for Funtastic Photos (download a free unlimited trial), however they may still work in other product.

When we first launched Funtastic Photos we received a rather interesting comment on one web site. The comment read as follows.
That’s NOT non destructive editing. That’s just a revert from saved (or original prior to editing). I wish all these companies would stop using this silly marketing phrase. Non destructive editing is only going to come about in a Raw converter which builds virgin pixels from data that’s not altered itself. Any pixel editing is destructive (due to rounding errors).
Unfortunately several people are getting crashes when they try to run the Mac Photo Editing Software Funtastic Photos 1.0.1, a couple of people have reported an error occurring while the splash screen opens. While one customer has reported it occurs in the ThumbnailGenerator. I have posted a new preview release today with the tracking enabled so that hopefully I can narrow these down and fix’em! I’m really unhappy about these problems, because they don’t happen in our lab and they don’t happen for our testers, but when we ship… I guess we may want to do a public test version for 1.1?
