I did mean Jon Cruz :) http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/lists/gimp-developer/2011-January/026174.html --- snip --- This came up at linux.conf.au this week. I had a chance to talk with a couple of users and graphic designers about UI, including the issue of being made similar to Adobe products. The almost immediate response was that if the program is not going to behave *exactly* as the Adobe one does, in smallest detail, then it is far better to have an explicitly distinct UI. Being "close" just leaves the end user with a vague feeling of incompleteness and that the software is not really ready for serious use. --- snip --- Alexandre Prokoudine http://libregraphicsworld.org _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
