Re: [LUG] Photography: Gimp classes

 

Thanks. Yes I have known about it for some time. But I can never find
binaries for it and compilation always fails. Although it looks a bit,
well, naff and out of date, it seems the film industry use it. Would like
to see an example of where though. I found this which is nice to know
http://www.linuxmovies.org/

I don't understand if it is supposed to be as good as that then why is
GIMP the only real used graphics application for Linux?
