With a horrid UI that repulses everyone used to software with a sane GUI such as Photoshop.

Tell me about it. How is any of that supposed to be usable on even a 1024x768 screen? It's so cluttered. Corel is much better. And just what do they think I'm supposed to do if I want to use a tiling WM like ratpoison, larswm, ion, etc? I'm sure the gimp is great underneath, but they really need to fix the UI. It doesn't even conform to their own UI standards.

Paul, I have dia, and it's really good for drawing diagrams, but not really what I'm looking for here. I need something which can make things like nice pretty logos and icons.

Thanks
Simon
