Ah the energy of a 2 year old! Always makes for a challenge. Here’s one of my favorite shots from a recent session I did for my friend Dave. Kept the editing pretty minimal on these ones. This one is pretty much right out of the camera.

So long iClip, hello ClipMenu
I’ve been using iClip as my clipboard manager for almost 3 years now after getting a license in a MacHeist bundle. Originally, I was pretty happy with it but it had some flaws that slowly ate away at me.
One of these flaws being that when pasting from the app to another app, it could sometimes take 5 seconds. Also, in the 3 years I’ve been using it there hasn’t been a single update for it. I find this to be absolutely foolish for an app that claims to have 40,000 registered users.
Now that I’ve upgraded to Snow Leopard, iClip is 100% not functional. Preferences can’t be updated, and it uses ridiculous amounts of memory. I don’t expect to see an update for 10.6 support any time soon, if ever, so I went looking elsewhere.
So I went looking for other alternatives, and there were lots of options from simple menubar apps, to lovely looking GUIs that use more RAM than iTunes and cost a fortune. For me a clipboard manager is something that I always have running in the background…so it needs to be lightweight and stay out of the way until needed.
This is where ClipMenu comes in. First off it is 100% free. Second, it has a tiny memory footprint. It also tucks away into the menu bar for when I need it, and supports a key feature for me: snippets. Other nice features include the ability to paste as plain test, lowercase, uppercase, and trim the text. It also seems to have an active development cycle, which holds a lot of merit for me.
Oh yeah, and it works awesome in Snow Leopard
