I havn't used PS since a long long time... if it looks like PS then I have to have a look at PS but I don't expect to find there highend visualisation functions like in motion picture color grading tools nor the cool discreet like preset banks... ;-) Yes exactly the same except for: - the more visual primary color selection with enhanced visualisation - powerful storage banks for test setups - a drop down preset lib - loading and saveing of settings - added compare tool - sliders with scale marks and middel point mark finally you can say it's exactly the same ;-) > The only improvement I see is the ability to see the actual influence > of the overlap value on the color gradient, wich is cool, but I don't > know if it's cool enough to change the whole dialog, that already > works fine. > I only had an hour to made the mockup so I don't found the time to implement highlight/mid/shadow support or other needful extensions... you are right this had to be integrated for future mockups - and even I have to go step by step - next version will show a lot more maybe... ;-) Until today nobody has integrated this small cool things in a standard image editing application - not even that small things...

I'm a bit modest with posting here because of that... And where to find the people from the GUI wiki?
