Mac OS X programming FAQ: How can I create a Mac ICNS file for my Mac application?
Lately I've been creating a series of small Mac applications, and as part of that I needed to learn how to make Mac ICNS files from standard image files (PNG, JPG, other). Today I offer a quick tip of my hat to the makers of a Mac application named FastIcns that lets you do just this.

Mac batch image resizing FAQ: How can I "batch resize" images (photos) on MacOS (for free, preferably)?
A long time ago I wrote about how to batch resize images on MacOS from the command line in my How to batch resize images on MacOS using ImageMagick. That approach is fine for techies who don't mind cracking open the Mac Terminal application, using the Unix command line to navigate to their folder, and then process their images.
