SWF & FLV Player 3.7.15.6206 (Mac OS X)
After I installed this, all EXE files on my mac were set to open in this. Previously, they were set to open in WINE. [alert admin]

CocoaKuler 1.0b1 (Mac OS X)
Would love to see a Tiger version
This would be very helpful, but at work we have not upgraded to Leopard and might not for quite a while. [alert admin]

Safari Tidy plugin 0.2.4 (Mac OS X)
When I installed this today, the source window was no longer using the font and colors I had defined in SafariSource (another SIMBL plugin), it was back to the horrid Safari default. Removing this restored the functionality of SafariSource. [alert admin]

DropImageURL 1.0.2 (Mac OS X)
First of all, it's donation NAGWARE -- you are presented with a dialog that you must wait to dismiss whenever you use it. Second of all, you need to save a webloc to the desktop first, like by dragging the blue sphere from Safari, THEN drag that to the app icon. Third, the icon is kind of hard to hit for a droplet... it is small, with a lot of mask. Would be better if it was in a square. Fourth, it took several MINUTES for the screenshot I took of this page in Versiontracker to appear on the desktop. Seriously, I thought the thing didn't work , since there is no UI or progress indicator. It finally appeared minutes later. YMMV. I see not reason to use this, much less donate for it when other alternatives like Paparazzi exist and have more features and a real UI. [alert admin]

Poser 6.0.1.77 (Mac OS X)
I have to agree with other posters that this app is virtual useless for production work. The renderer is unbearably slow, especially for lights with shadows. And although they keep updating the hair and cloth capabilties, the rendering with hair is EVEN SLOWER. Fortunately, 6.0 includes figures with trans-mapped (textured) hair. There is still no other app like Poser, to easily create realistic people and pose them for use in your 3D scenes. However, the best thing you can do is create, dress, and pose your figure and bring it into another app (it's well-integrated with Carrara, but exports to most apps) for rendering. And note this workflow is best suited for still images, although some apps (e.g. Carrara) allow for animated figure imports. Just don't think you can do animations within Poser, especially not with hair or other dynamics. And I'm using a dual G5 2Ghz with plenty of RAM, so it's not that I'm on a low-end Mac. [alert admin]

Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3 (Mac OS X)
But I don't see any new navigation icons... they're the same as in 0.9.2 I wish the themes provided worked on the Mac, but every one I've tried there are no scrollbars. And all the documentation and forums is extremely windows-oriented (or perhaps I should say x86 oriented?) so there's not much Mac support. That being said, it's fairly quick and accurate. The adblock extension rocks. [alert admin]

miniTunes 6b (Mac OS X)
I tried it, but after entering preferences, no window appeared. Choosing the "mini window" from the window menu gave me an AppleScript Error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4 (1) This is on 10.3.4, if it matters any. Oh, although labeled freeware, it nags you for $5 at quit. I also am confused about the purpose of this app; if I'm going to keep a floating window open, why not just use iTunes or Audion? If I wanr something always available, I'd probably use Synergy. [alert admin]

LOOPS Screensaver - Plasma 1.0 (Mac OS X)
A complete waste of time and money 
Sorry to sound harsh but: 1. This is merely a quicktime movie loop. For some reason, I thought is was a procedural plasma generator, like the free "Plasma Tunnel" one. 2. Having to pay first is really uncool. Since it was so cheap, I bought it. I wish I bought a Snapple with that $1.50. 3. It only works at one resolution -- and will not fill the screen on my 17" imac. On top of having black bars at the sides, the video is very blocky and low-res. 4. Even though I went through the whole purchase-and-download process, the screensaver still says it's unregistered! Stay away from this one. Use one of the many cool free savers available. [alert admin]

OmniWeb 5.0 beta 2 (Mac OS X)
Works pretty well for a beta. The UI is very attractive and the feature set is very good, compared to Safari. I'm currently using Firefox as my main browser as it's much faster than Safari IMHO. This OW beta is still a bit slow, but it is a beta after all. If they get the final versions, speed up there, it's be fantastic. [alert admin]

ShapeShifter 1.0 (Mac OS X)
The ease of use is outstanding. The themes supplied (and/or linked to in README) are great. Except that it's very broken right now. For example, every Carbon app I've tried crashes on a "Save As..:. This includes must-use apps like Flash, BBEdit, Mozilla, etc. I didn't test others but only found Cocoa apps to not crash (e.g. TextEdit, Safari). All apps I tried launch, work, and look great. It's just anything that brings up the system save dialog is a crasher. Until this is fixed, which I hope is soon, it's unusable. Also I was a bit diappointed that the Finder windows in Panther do not skin full when in "Toolbar/Sidebar" mode. In particular, the title bar is not skinned except for the close/min/max buttons. Putting the Finder windows back into "Jaquar" mode fixes this, but at a loss of the new functionality (of course). [alert admin]

Actually, it seems the crash I experienced was theme-specific. It doesn't happen with the "new" themes but happened with Rhapsodized and QNX.
