So what you are trying to say is: "I know this is wrong, but do it anyway." GIMP is intended to be a tool for professional use. Professionals are people who know they should pick the right tool for the job. If a user doesn't know, what the right tool is, and doesn't want to be educated, that user isn't a professional and hence is outside of the target user group. End of story. > "Please use darktable" > what darktable? it doesn't exist in 2.6.11 nor in the plugin registry. > vaporware. or someone is just being dark. :-/ I don't even like the name. *sigh* Just when you think you got rid of ugly trolling in this mailing list, reality delivers a punch in the face. If you want to continue the conversation in a constructive manner, please make an effort of being reasonable. > "Gimp is just GIMP." seems so mediocre.
