The suck minimize effect in Mac OS X Leopard

March 4, 2009 @ 1:59 pm

I’ve been fooling around with MacPilot for the past couple of days and I’ve come to realize that Unix-based operating systems (like OS X) are incredibly powerful and customizable and that they’re dumbed down by default to accommodate the average user.

MacPilot is like Microsoft PowerToys for Mac OS X — but with steroids. I won’t go into all the fancy crap you can do with it but I do want to show you how awesome the hidden “suck” effect for minimizing windows is.

Why Apple doesn’t make this an option in their drop-down menu is lost on me, but it’s so much nicer than “Genie” and “Scale”.

Place yourself into a situation with Photofunia

It took years and years of work, but I was finally able to secure myself a life-long spot at a gallery in Chelsea.

Just kidding.

I made the image above quickly and easily at Photofunia, a website where you can submit any image and it’ll automatically place the image into a number of famous and humorous scenarios. There are a lot of effects to choose from, so enjoy!

Thanks for this, Connie!
