You wouldn’t be spamming us, trying to get us to buy your crappy product, would you?

Just incase you missed it, PS has several rulers, why would anybody need more?

The ruler floats over the screen so it can be used with any application. It’s pretty good, actually.

Granted it’s good, but it’s certainly not worth $20 to me for the few times I’d use it.

Always good to read your views, Norm. Well, $20 over a couple years use is pretty good. I have no interest in the vendor, but just looking at $20 … seems pretty trivial considering what we (or I) spent on the CS Suite. 🙂

There’s always the free Cool Ruler from
http://www.fabsoft.com/products/ruler/ruler.html

ColorPic from www.iconico.com can also be useful.

Woooow, this is GOOD… But not in Photoshop! 🙂
I find it very useful in programming, to align visual objects on forms. Or in Excel, to simplify row tracking. However, Photoshop already has everything it needs, really.

I’ve actually bought this ruler yesterday, but for $15 (precisely: $14.95)… After some googling and digging at RegNow, I have discovered that they had a promotional discount that can still be reached. The trick is simple: you click the register button on ruler’s site, that takes you to RegNow to do the transaction. Now, in the URL change 12884-1 to 12884-3 (leave everything else as it was) and you get the same product 25% cheaper! 🙂

Obviously, they cannot track who has received the promotional link, so they just send you your activation without any questions. Amateurs! :))) But other than that, ruler works just fine.

Yup, this little trick works, and $15 is definitely better than $20! I can instantly think of at least 5 reasons. 🙂
