Your ability to open and read WIkipedia is commendable, but I strongly suggest that you read the full history that I linked to :) Photographers weren't the reason to create Photoshop. It came next. Now, as for GIMP, we did work with professional photographers and we are going to work with them in the future. I understand that you are unwilling to read whatever links I throw at you, but maybe this time it's going to work? Here are raw evaluation notes from 2006 usability study: http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/Evaluation_Notes_-_Photo_Realistic > PS: > I used Cinepaint in the past Very well :) I just hope we are not having a "who started doing computer graphics earlier" contest 'round here. Not that I didn't have fond memories of using a light pen around 1986 :) Alexandre Prokoudine http://libregraphicsworld.org _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
