CNET Editors' review
ImageWell can help anyone who needs a quick and easy way to edit and upload images. Combining two functions, ImageWell is designed specifically to modify images and post them to a Web server. You can perform simple edits by dragging an image onto the ImageWell icon. From there you can crop and resize, or add drop shadows, labels, text, and watermarks. You can also use its built-in screen-grab feature.
ImageWell does a good job of uploading files to a designated server (such as an iDisk or FTP), and it supports batch exports for folders of images. ImageWell is a decent app for bloggers, eBay posters, or for anyone looking for a flexible utility for editing and sharing photos.
Publisher's Description
From XtraLean Software:
ImageWell is the easy way to edit, rotate, crop, and resize your image or screenshot, and upload it to your iDisk (.mac account), FTP/SFTP server, WebDAV server, or send to your flickr, SmugMug or ImageShack account. Add colored borders, take screen grabs, and store multiple locations for sending. At the click of a button, the image is sent and a handy URL is copied to the clipboard.
Universal binary for PPC/Intel Mac support, Leopard support, and localized in 14 different languages. Other feature highlights include: batch resize, batch watermark, layer multiple images on canvas, annotate images with arrows, text, circles, or squares, templates for saving styles, built-in screenshot functionality, brightness, contrast, saturation and sharpness controls,variety of draw objects and line styles, gradient patterns for backgrounds, plus much more. Version 3.5.3 has moved canvas sizing control to a new location on the UI to make it easier to find and fixed batch mode crop bug.

"Good and very useful"
Version: ImageWell 4.0.7
Pros
Easy to use and very useful for creating images with texts or combining images in a simple way.
Cons
1� unwanted margins/white frames or partial frames 2� lines with arrows are not supple enough: would be nice to make a continuous arrow with sections slanted to different angles (to indicate directions in a street map).
Summary
I used this app quite a lot to put captions into photos or maps. I find it easy to use but it has room for a few improvements (such as the capacity to make a continuous arrow that goes in different directions instead of just vertically and horizontally).
