SiteGrinder comes to MAC

A powerful and easy-to-use plug-in for Adobe Photoshop

Media Lab, Inc., has announced the full compatibility of its award-winning product, SiteGrinder 2, with Apple's latest operating system, Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. A powerful and easy-to-use plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, SiteGrinder 2 effortlessly lets users convert their Photoshop designs into CSS-rich, standards-compliant webpages from within Photoshop with just a click of the mouse.

Moreover, SiteGrinder 2 does it all without the user having to write a single line of code. SiteGrinder 2 provides all the tools a professional graphics designer, photographer, or web engineer needs to generate superior, compelling interactive web experiences, including the ability to build automated photo galleries, Flash slideshows, CSS-driven menus, and much more. Best of all, pages generated by SiteGrinder 2 retain the exact look and layout of the parent Photoshop file from which they were created.

"We're very excited to be releasing SiteGrinder 2 for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard," said Thomas Summerall, co-founder and President of Media Lab, Inc. "SiteGrinder 2 puts extremely powerful and easy-to-use webpage creation capabilities in the hands of our customers, letting them focus exclusively on their designs rather than on confusing webpage code. SiteGrinder 2 lets customers take ownership of their websites like never before, and at an extremely reasonable price point."

Priced at $349.00 USD for SiteGrinder 2 Pro and $129.00 USD for SiteGrinder 2 Basic, both are available directly from the Media Lab website.

SiteGrinder 2 for Mac OS X is Universal and requires Mac OS X 10.1 or greater. Also required is Adobe Photoshop 7 or greater, including Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Intel- and PowerPC-based Macs (Mac OS X 10.5 or greater required for use on Intel-based Macs). SiteGrinder 2 is also compatible with Photoshop Elements 3 or greater.
