Forums (plural). This is the only place I see anyone talking about GIMP. In the local photo clubs, all the photo magazines and other forums it is never mentioned. This is probably because no pro or serious amateur uses it. All I can see is religion from you. You are pushing an app that is not as good in performance, lousy interface, not as well supported and with only a few users over an industry standard. You see the same sort of irrational arguments from the Open Source brigade. The Devotees chant the mantra's and accusing everyone else of having the myopia they suffer from. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

Last time I looked Aperture was only on MAC (as was iPhoto) but these things have a habit of changing when I am not looking :-) I must admit I only tried GIMP on the PC... PS and both Mac and PC. It was also partly why I chose Lightroom over Aperture. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

Some of them having even simpler methods and more advanced script programming methods. Even "lowly and ancient" Paint Shop Pro v9.01 has all that available. But they don't require 10,000,000 blind and lost followers trying to explain it to each other, and how to use it. Keep on trolling, it's fun watching you display how very little you know.

Funny, that sounds exactly like the desperate cries of the religiously insecure. No wait. It doesn't sound exactly like it, IT IS. |
