What do the two different GimpPreviews do? If they are so alike, why 
are there two different versions? Please explain it to me as if I did 
not understand programming at all (which I don't, so it will be very 
easy for me to play my part :-)).

As an aside: on your intropage, you end half of the sentences without 
and the other half with full-stops.

As an aside to this aside: a Mac application knew that a certain 
function could take a while to process, so the programmers had, very 
thoughtfully, provided a dialog that said: "If you want to interupt 
the processing, please press Command and type a period." A (Dutch) 
colleague who knows very little about Macs, wanted to interupt the 
program, so he pressed the Command button and started typing for a 
while.
