I've used it just about as long. The UI is outdated, but it does a lot -
particularly regarding the support for many different formats.  And it
costs money to keep it updated through the years.

On the other hand, Preview is free, comes pre-installed on all Macs, and
it doesn't have to be impressive to do something as simple as resize an
image. : )
