GUIs are tools just like any other software. What they look like should be subordinate to what they do. I find that sticking with KDE is a safe bet. I use Slack and Patrick Volkerding has already kicked Gnome off the island. If "look pretty nice" is a biggie with the other person I suggest that here are plenty of themes for him to play with on either KDE or Gnome. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
