We switched to Krita, KOffice's imaging app. It's geared towards paint, and unlike Cinepaint and Gimp, it is actually usable by artists. And it has full OpenEXR support with color profiles and feels very 'Photoshoppy' People just plain refuse to use Cinpaint for its non-existent usability and while Gimp is 'ok', it's far from Krita in usability and basically ruled out, because it only supports 8bit. No bashing, just the facts. :) Cheers, Moritz ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
