First, let me start out by throwing some love to BittBox, one of my must-read design blogs.  I stumbled upon BittBox by accident about 13 or so months ago while looking for grunge brushes/textures and immediately added the RSS feed to my reader (and I highly recommend you do, too). 

So I was mowing through my feeds today and I happened upon a post with a really detailed write-up on one of my favorite Mac OS X utilities for one of my favorite Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) features: Quick Look.  As a designer, I hate the fact that Apple almost forces you to open up Adobe Illustrated to view EPS files — or, worse yet, have them open in Preview as a PDF.

Thanks to EPSQuickLookPlugin, that minor annoyance is over.

You can read more about the plugin @ BittBox, but I wanted to put something on here for my designer friends.  This FREE plugin will save you tons of time, guaranteed.

For those of you looking to move beyond EPS files and branch out into other programs with Quick Look, there is an excellent resource available at the aptly-named QuickLookPlugins.com.
