sorry to post again on this topic but there are to points One possible (not likely, you'll notice, but possible) outcome is that having GIMP-friendly moderators will lead to participants pressuring GimpShop developers to turn it into a a collection of patches on GIMP, or maybe a GIMP module of some kind.

Can you elaborate on some of the new usability enhancements? I'm all ears. Well, it's difficult to single out a specific feature. I suggest that you read the recent changes summarized in: http://developer.gimp.org/NEWS And maybe more importantly, that you look at the work done by Kamila and Peter for improving the user interface: http://gui.gimp.org/ Some of these improvements have already integrated in the current version in SVN but others are still pending. For example, have a look at: http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/Selection_%2B_crop_tool_specification You will also find many little things that have been improved to guide the user along the way, such as tooltips for all menu items (quick description of what each filter does) or status bar messages that help you to remember how to use each tool and what to do with Ctrl/Alt/Shift. -Raphaël ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I figure GIMP will eventually have 16bit support.

True. However, I'm wondering if there's anyone here willing to moderate such a list, what it would coist to run such at Berkeley? The logic is that it would take such posts away from the main list (which you're reading now) really be helping people. The downside is that it could be seen as supporting GimpShop despite the developer's entire unwillingness to join this community. In answer to the second point, are are any other good, free (yeah, yeah, I know) list servers in action that you'd recommend someone independant started a support list on? The idea behind that is to take the traffic away but still be able to monitor it, so that despite said developer's approach, good ideas could be captured for the benefit of *both* packages. And, who knows, bad ideas might even get a little slapping about before anyone implements them, so establishing a precendent. If enough people here think the idea's basically a winner, I might ask Linux Australia to be a list host, with the idea of inviting a few others here along as moderators.

Yah, I think improvements which make a gazillion little improvements across the board are both very difficult to usefully describe beyond it's better and and very important. This makes the announcements tend to either be overwhelming, confusing prose or uninformitavely brief. Let's have a go, and see if I can cover everything in one short par, but still be informative: Extensive improvements to User Interface factors, such as improved shortcuts, plus informative status messages tooltips to let the user know what is actually happening at any instant.
