In the latest edition of ADC news, the following description appears under 'Mac OS X Sample Code':

Graphics 2D: Image Difference
This sample demonstrates a way to use Quartz's compositing capability to find the difference between two images.

Hope this helps,

Can someone suggest a method for roughly comparing NSImages? I am creating a disk caching mechanism for my app, and I need a way to check if an image downloaded from the web (could be in any format) is equal to an NSImage I've created from a PNG on disk. -isEqual doesn't cut it, since it seems to compare all sorts of stuff that has probably changed in the process. Can I rely on an NSImage created from a PNG created from some web image to be comparable to an NSImage created from the same web image?

I could use TIFFs instead of PNG, but I rather avoid it due to the relatively large file size.

Thanks in advance!
