Hi all,
GIMP is a great programme, but it is not a great name. Changing its
identity to something more likeable will help to get more users, and
potentially more developers.
There is a commercial image editor called Pixie (with an e), but not
Pixi. This makes sense, as long as the software remains a pixel-based
editor. I've thought about the name for a while, before google came
out with their latest phone!
In a world of software of dubious use and quality, but with "cool"
names, GIMP stands out. I will always call it GIMP with great respect
and appreciation even if the name changes. Also, it is bad luck to
change the name of open source software. Or maybe that is boats, but I
think the same cosmic algorithm applies.
