Showfoto and RawTherapee, both do things GIMP can't. Also they do many things BETTER than CS4 can! (So can GIMP for that matter.) We are talking about high-quality image processing here, as when I load a 12Mp image *.nef file to get a final output, the former two applications are very appreciated applications that are, open-source free-ware and that outperform PhotoShop+Lightroom+Aperture and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllll their ancillary plug-ins that cost an arm and a leg. I keep my money for glass and a new body or two every three years...
Oh and by the way, ShowFoto and RawTherapee both perform quite well on my portables running Ubuntu. Even on the 2001 Dell Latitude... RawTherapee doesn't install anything but itself, in fact, you have to create a short-cut to run it after extraction. It writes nothing in any other place save the folder it's extracted to. Now that's CLEAN software, self-contained. -- Omnia quaecumque vultis ut faciant vobis homines et vos facite illis (Mt.: 7,12) _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
