Actually you did get help. I even sent you a separate email asking if you would be willing to test a beta built of 2.7.5. Anyway, there is a thread on Gimpchat.com where you can check out the current conversation on a beta build based on current carbon code in 2.7.5. Keep in mind that it does not have Mitch's blessings. :) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
