Every time you browse online to buy a Pixlr Desktop application, it seems that the application is being offered for free. If you search for Pixlr applications on the Internet, the company is constantly taking their content and distributing it for free. The problem is that every time you use the application, you are agreeing to distribute the Pixlr logo to everyone who uses your computer. I understand that there are companies that need to recoup their investment quickly, but at least give your customers an option to pay for the application instead of handing it out for free.
There are many free apps available for the Mac OS X operating system. However, many of these applications do not have the same level of detail that the Pixlr Desktop software does. However, if you want to update the current software that is bundled with your Mac, you can purchase an updated version for a small fee. While the Pixlr Desktop software is helpful for almost anyone, if you are looking for a more powerful application, you will probably need to look for another software program.
If you cannot download this free software, you may want to search for free versions of applications that have been released by other companies. For example, Adobe has several applications available that are free, while others will cost you money to get them. Sometimes the cost to purchase is a lot less than the cost to download the application, and you can use the free applications to supplement your Mac's features. It is not a good idea to download the applications that come free as they often do not perform well. Once you start downloading applications, be sure to keep up with the updates, otherwise you may lose information or data.
