Was emailled this this morning - as I only made one edit, and am not actually the author, I thought I'd share it with the mailing list. (Another success story!)

Dear Craig,
I really loved your November 2004 (update date) Gimp vs Photoshop article which I came across while googling "gimp export pdf." I didn't put two and two together (that postscript files are most easily converted to pdf) until I read your article and was staying away from The Gimp for that reason (would not export to pdf). No matter how obvious it is now, it did not occur to me
until your article. So I am going to give The Gimp a try.
Thanks!
John White

I personally use the Photoshop keyboard bindings with Gimp. It makes my life easier now as I'm a long time Photoshop user. The only way the Gimp will attract long time Photoshop users to convert is to be more like Photoshop in both function and interface. And I must admit that a lot of the Gimp's default keyboard short cuts make absolutely no sense what-so-ever to me. Some of the names given to things are also far too geeky. Eg, "Convolve". What the hell does Convolve mean. Especially to an artist. Regards On Mon, 2005-04-04 at 00:16 +0000, Joseph Gibbs wrote: oliver(a)deeperdesign.com » +64 (21) 41 2238 » www.deeperdesign.com
