GIMP

Name: Anonymous 2010-01-16 7:12

Ahh, if Gimp was a type of person easily identifiable by an outward trait, I would throw javelins at their cocks.
And miss on purpose if it meant getting a head shot.
Fuckdamnit do I hate Gimp. I'd rather stick my newly roused genitalia in a rambunctious beehive than ever use that shitpile again.
The asswipe magnitude of the developers must be near the MAXIMUM point, which is always serious.
Fuck Gimp. I hope they go extinct.

You're right, Haskell software has long since transcended software and has become art.

Sysadmins:
languages: perl, shell, C; they all suck.
factiod: hate the people that use our systems, yes you faggot devs too.
reads: USENET forums like *-security-announce, security focus, man pages, tech dox; they all suck
editor: vi, emacs, sed & awk, perl -pi -e; they all suck
OS: they all really suck a.k.a.: whatever shit the clueless suits decided on before I started and now have to maintain.

I like my freedom. I don't have that with Photoshop.
I prefer the freedom to draw pictures to the freedom to implement myself what the bare requirements to actually draw pictures.

As if anyone actually cares what you prefer.

You are one voice amongst billions; of no significance.

Your opinion just adds to the background noise, and is not even enough to clear the s/n floor.

There are no opinions here.  The gimp is undeniably shit.

And still not one plausible argument. Even the biggest hater of the thread said that "the GIMP is as comfortable as photoshop for retouching red eyes then scaling pictures".

That's something that makes it a Photoshop alternative. Given that it is not intended to be a drop-in replacement (http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/index.html) this actually proves just how intuitive it can be for someone who until now was only using the Photoshop mindset.

Notepad is a fair and intuitive replacement for MS Word if you're looking for grocery list editing software. That doesn't make it good.

Nice strawman here. Notepad is a plain text editor, MSWord a formatted text editor. That's like comparing the Gimp to MSPaint. Of course paint can also retouch red eyes and scale images, but what is your point exactly?

You assume that Notepad and MS Word are both text editors.
You assert that Notepad can do some task, but claim that being able to do a given task does not show that Notepad is good.

I point out that by giving two examples of text editors, and then by dismissing one of them, you've left with the implication that the only alternative left, MS Word, is a good option. A and B. If not A, then B.

I remind you that your claim that Notepad is not good is not evidence that MS Word is good in the first place. Notepad and MSWord may both fail at doing certain tasks where other text editors may succeed.

Wrong tool for the job mate. Gimp is a photo manipulator, not a painting program. If you want to draw pretty pictures, try Inkscape. Besides that, you cannot have freedom when you choose Photoshop. Instead of freedom, you choose to give up your freedom in exchange for the opportunity operate Photoshop on your machine.

Inkscape? Seriously? It is soooooo slow. For painting Artrage and Mypaint.

This is the most retarded thing said in this thread. You can't make pretty digital paintings with a vectorial illustration program. That's like recommending using flutes to make rock music.

Photoshop can do everything MS Paint does
The GIMP can do everything MS Paint does
Ergo the GIMP can do everything Photoshop does
