This is the biggest update ever for my first Mac OS X application, and it adds lots of new features and refinements that customers have been requesting and I&rsquo;ve been wanting for myself. Pretty much everything has been rewritten or revised and modernized. It&rsquo;s come a <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/dropdmg\/manual-ah\/version-history\">long way<\/a> from the first version, more than eight years ago, which ran a single thread, had no preferences, and used an icon designed by the programmer. The basic concept&mdash;easy disk image creation via drag-and-drop or AppleScript&mdash;remains the same, however.\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Although I&rsquo;m the sole developer, I have many others to thank for helping with this release. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kenichiyoshida.jp\">Kenichi Yoshida<\/a> did a great job on the new icon. The volunteer localizers had five translations ready by the time I was done with the code. The beta testers made lots of good suggestions and found all the significant bugs (so far, fingers crossed). And thanks, of course, to the users who paid for DropDMG, told me what was good and what needed improvement, and politely nagged about when the new version would be ready.\r\n<\/p>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/mjtsai.com\/blog\/images\/2010-06-30-dropdmg-1-puma.png\" alt=\"DropDMG 1.0 on Mac OS X 10.1\" width=\"487\" height=\"153\" \/>\r\n<p>DropDMG 1.0 running on Mac OS X 10.1.2.
