Have you used GIMP professionally for the past seven years, every day? Have you used Photoshop professionally that long? I have. I've tried GIMP. It is a shadow of Photoshop when it comes to power and features. Although I haven't seen what it can do over the past year or so. Has it advanced that much in the past year? (Ignoring the fact that Photoshop has just made major advances). I have yet to see one single professional design/graphics house that uses it over Photoshop. Can you name one? One newspaper? One magazine? I can name hundreds that use Photoshop from tiny Weeklies to the New York Times and all the major magazines and photo agencies. If GIMP was really that good, I'm willing to wager it would be more accepted. Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Logic: The art of being wrong with confidence...
