Apply Frame and Drop Shadow∞
A simple python plugin to create a new image from the current one, with a white border + a drop shadow around it. Save the file in your ~/Library/Application Support/Acorn/Plug-Ins/ folder.

Acorn Trim Scripts∞
These scripts, inspired by Bosco’s Foto Trimmer, make it easy to crop a single row or column of pixels off the edge of an image. This can save you some intricate mouse work and/or manual typing of pixel values to resize the canvas, and it’s especially useful for manipulating screenshots.
