Hey, i was wondering if there is a small app for mac, that can let me edit a picture by adding text on it. Just like in photoshop, but not that expensive. I heard about Gimp but I don't know if i want to use it , i heard it has some bugs.

any suggestions ?

I really like Gimp for putting captions on images. It works the best for me.

Seashore and Inkscape are free.
OmniGraffle is cool, and ComicLife rocks.

I haven't tried it yet, but I guess Acorn is the new kid on the image-editing block…
