I loved Skitch 1.0 — I used it all the time to share screenshots and other images quickly. The annotation and painting features were very clever, and it was by far the fastest way to resize images and upload them somewhere to share. All that is gone now: the new version is just terrible. Almost none of the useful features I relied on remain — no fast resizing, no uploading anywhere but to Evernote, no whole-window snaps, no font choice, no color picker, no translucent colors, no fill, no file format choice, no filename choice… I could go on. It’s also much uglier and less stable now.
I can’t remember a piece of good software being so completely ruined in one fell stroke.
Evernote, who own Skitch, have put up version 1 for download.
