So, I downloaded it, and of course the default installation wipes out my earlier 6.7.x. Is there a way I can get 6.7.x back on my system?Thanks so much,Jim Robertson

Desktop Icon

Post by Gary Estler »

Hi, Thorsten,I can't thank you enough for all the work you do with GraphicConverter. It is a great program – one I use exclusively for my graphic needs.One question – and I apologize if this should be obvious. In older versions of Graphic converter, if I created a gif or png file with transparency, the icon for that file also had the transparency which made it quite attractive. Now, however, the icon seems to have lost the transparency and shows up with a white background. Is there any way to have it display just the graphic without the white background?Regards,Gary E

Hello, Just save with custom icon. It will have the transparency. Only the default apple preview does not show it.

99%? Oh, you are an optimist, aren't you. I've been using Macintosh for a long time, and Lion is going to be my most difficult transition ever. Things that will hit me the hardest: - Appleworks will stop working altogether (I'm transitioning to iWork and Bento) - Intuit tells us (in a bulk e-mail I received yesterday) that Quicken 7 will never work on Lion, only "Essentials", which is not the same. - Parliant's Phone Valet doesn't work. - I still haven't made the transition to GC7 because I have a lot of Applescript scripts to check for compatibility before I switch over. - Microsoft Office requires upgrade to "2011", but "2011" doesn't work with my company's antiquated exchange server. These are just things I found out in the last few week. I'm already running the Lion seed at my day job, but even with that head start, I expect I will not be "ready" for Lion on my personal machines for another year. So, I think promoting Lion compatibility up front is important and a good thing to do. - Jeff On 7/7/11 6:41 AM, Alexander von Below wrote: > Why? 99% of all Applications are "Lion Ready" out of the box.

Things that will hit me the hardest: Yes, except for the initial move to OS X, this will be the worst for me. I may partition my HD and keep SL running in one partition so I can use files and apps that won't run in Lion. Maybe they will make Rosetta work again -- I sure hope so. There are apps that are occasionally important to me, but I'm not interested in spending 100s of dollars for new versions. Tom Miller ..................................................

It would cost me far more to upgrade Office than to buy Lion, never mind all the other things that would no longer work. Maybe someone will bring out a third party version or emulation of Rosetta, in much the same way that Basilisk does for System 7/8 or SheepShaver does for System 9. John.
