I can't VTFV because I'm at work (ha), but from the screenshots Aurora looks like it could do for the web what the 'lowfat' project could do for digital photo albums.

His webpage isn't very up-to-date, but you can find a Youtube video of the 'lowfat' software here.

It actually does not require XGL, I'm not sure why those Youtube videos seem to think that it does.

The actual webpage for the project is here. It's not too hard to get up and running if you're using a semi-recent version of GNU/Linux. :-)

Sorry, I mangled the link and didn't preview. Bad combination.

I mean, Macslow's Lowfat

Hmm, searching Google doesn't yield much of anything either. Some blog mentioned the "lack of information" on Plasma, and an image search only turns up a few pages. The best page I found is written in Czech (I think).

But aside from that, I think it's probably a good idea to mention Gnome ToPaZ (AKA TPZ, or Three Point Zero). I think it was originally supposed to be a plan from Gnome 3.0, but it's turned more into a brainstorming session for a "next-generation" desktop. Some of the ideas on that page are pretty lawl-tastic, but one very cool one is "lowfat". I strongly suggest checking out the video.

Same kind of activity happening in the FOSS world. Check out macslow the lowfat project.

Fortunately for Linux (and other freenixes) users, an alternative is beeing developed since February.

This reminds me of something I saw on the UbuntuForum.
It was a simple start of an Linux app in wich you could manipulate photo's very much like this app.

Found it! => Lowfat
