Wow, everything you've said in this post is pretty much wrong. Same thing goes for most of your other posts. You write a lot but actually say very little. You clearly don't do any research before you make your assertions. I question that you have even used Photoshop, since you seem to think the half-assed things GimpShop does to emulate Photoshop really makes PS users comfortable. Please stop posting to the list, as all you can seem to do is post misinformation and assertions that you cannot back up. -Yosh _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
