Got Skitch 1.x Working Again – For Now…

Well… I got to thinking this evening on the train ride home that getting Skitch 1.x working again might be nice. After all, I was able to use it on my work laptop and save an image to the Skitch.com servers, and that gave me hope. Well… honestly, it didn't hurt that the reviews for the latest version weren't looking too great on the Mac App Store:

Skitch Ratings

…clearly, the vast majority of the people buying the app aren't buying the changes. So I thought Maybe they'll turn around? OK… so I'm a hopeful romantic.

In any case, I was able to fire up Skitch 1.x and then try to save something and it asked me if I wanted to use my Evernote account, or try the 'old school' login on my Skitch account. I put that in, and presto! I was logged in. As long as I don't go to the Preferences panel, I'm going to stay logged in. That's great news!

I'm still not going to get too attached to it - but maybe it's possible that Evernote is going to look at this feedback and see that they need to back off what they are doing.

At least that's what I'm hoping for…
