What I was trying to say is that Gimp is very powerful, and that I'm finding it can do most anything I would want to do in Photoshop. I wasn't criticizing Gimp, but praising it. I looked at gimpshop - the main development seems geared towards OSX - there was a link to a Linux port of his code, but the link didn't take me to anything resembling a page with Linux ports of gimpshop. I think that link is broken. -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
