'Working on GIMP paid-off my mortgage!' In a world overflowing with justice, yes. Here, however... sigh. On the bright side, _using_ GIMP instead of something priced around AUD$1200 has literally helped my sister-in-law pay off her mortgage. She was able to borrow just enough money to pay for the camera (Canon 10D) and lenses that would do what she needed as a professional photographer (at a breath-taking discount, how she got that and at the same time kept all of her clothes on I do not know). If she'd had to pay another two grand for PS, XP, virus scanners, etc it wouldn't have been possible. http://www.goldenlight.bur.st/ Her new occupation has paid off the camera, paid for a new one (20D) so she has a backup, paid for several GB of Compact Flash, and paid a significant chunk of their mortgage. Next, it will pay for a computer for her children so that they have something besides her work machine to learn and play on. She has more work than she can handle. There are still some features of PS that she yearns for, but after actually using PS she says she finds most of the interface very awkward compared with The GIMP. Simple little things can make a large difference. I always find copying and pasting text very awkward on MS-Windows after using Linux, Select, move to keyboard, Ctrl-C, move to mouse, find target application, click, Ctrl-V, move back to mouse vs Select, find target application, middle-click.

Hi, Carol Spears [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: i actually prefer that you continue with the /ignore as i do this to your blog and do not want to stop. Don't worry, I will go back to using /ignore as soon as I feel that listening to you makes me aggressive. That is part of my therapy. do you think a hummingbird photo would be similar to the airplane photos that can be found on the adobe page? IIRC, Mitch has a picture of an AWACS plane (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AWACS) flying directly over our heads at WhatTheHack. That might make a good addition to the collection. And yes, that was sort of frightening... Sven ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
