Thanks to all for all the helpful feedback. The reference to "GIMP while we're at school..." made me smile. I am a newbie to Ubuntu and Linux. But not to messing with new things in a world not quite ready. I was laughed out of a technical meeting of movie equipment pros one time when I told them that one day soon the 35mm and 16mm cameras we were using would be the exception and video cameras would be used for just about everything, especially since nearly everything would be on small screens. That was about 1973, I think. I made the first film that used post-produced synthesized music. About 1975, I think. Won some significant awards. Got some smart buddies in Nashville to help make post-produced music work in a user controlled interactive video exhibit for a science museum. 1986 maybe? Probably never been done again (it was a pretty crazy thing to do, after all), and I was told as recently as last month that it was "impossible." So in return for all the kind advice, I will give you all some: Never stop being a newbie. I have been at it 75 years now. Works for me.
