Re: [Gimp-developer] [PATCH] Improve brush outline for fuzzy brushes, sample screenshot included

2009-09-09 Thread Steren

 If you want to test-drive the look and feel, here's a flash applet
 featuring various outline designs:

This is the good approach : prototype, test and decide. Thanks a lot for the
flash test.

I personnaly think a call to the community via the user mailing list should
be done to decide which behavior to adopt.
What do you think ?

ciao,

Re: [Gimp-developer] What would be a better set of default resources?

Indeed, they are good examples. For me, the thing is : why these examples ?
To give examples doesn't mean not to justify them.

A justification could be the need of the users, if after a study it appears
that the color Brush the most relevant to provide by default is a Pepper, I
would understand. Unfortunately, I don't think so.
I could also totally understand if someone justifies it by saying it's for
historical reason, the Pepper is a symbol for Gimp.

Moreover I think I'm not mistaken if I say that a large set of casual users
keep using Gimp with the default brush set and don't add custom ones. My
opinion would be that the more useful brushes they have, the more they will
feel creative. This is why I think Gimp should be shipped with a large set
of useful brushes.

 One reason to keep some image hose brushes in the default set is just
 to demonstrate that gimp supports them!  I participate in a web forum
 for amateur cartography, and one of the most common requests is how to
 use tubes with photoshop.  Most are extremely impressed that this
 capability exists in Gimp.

  Why? Tell us a good reason then why we should keep them.
