Someone once suggested I edit an image in Skitch. Skitch took something like 20 seconds to start.
#Paintbrush mac windows#
By the time I got it open, had the image I wanted, and was ready to go, I'd forgotten why I'd opened Skitch to begin with.Įither put in some excellent integration with a dedicated image editing tool or take the couple of dev hours to make pictures go bigger or littler, just like every Windows 3.1 app could do. Because so far, I'm just telling people Evernote is pretty, but OneNote works.Īnd suggesting that users don't understand their own problems doesn't actually solve any problems. I'm pretty certain that Evernote uses the same Windows Shell based application invocation scheme that other programs use. Use a different image editor if Skitch isn't fast enough for you. MS Paint is always there, and it's fast to open and easy to use. Having image resize in Evernote would be swell, but in the meantime, it doesn't have to be as difficult as folks seem to make it. The easier solution for me has been to use OneNote. It's had this ultra-simple functionality for over a decade.īy Unix style, I was thinking more along the lines of how each tool does one thing well and connects easily to the next tool with pipes, not so much app invokation. The way Evernote asks that you do this just isn't comfortable and results in imagines not being a part of my notes. Evernote staff can continue to pretend this isn't stupid but that won't get me to start using Evernote again.
