I've heard people on line talk about gimpshop overcoming the weird interface problem. I just checked and the homepage mentions something about needing to "get your hands dirty" and a reference to OS X. I'm not a photoshop kinda guy, so I have no idea what all that means. Does it mean, however, that Gimpshop is a better alternative to Gimp for powerusers? mcm -- Mark C.
