Film Gimp Project Renamed to CinePaint

Posted by timothy on from the frame-set-match dept.

ubiquitin writes "To avoid confusion with the GIMP, the Film Gimp project has renamed itself to CinePaint. The project is essentially a legitimate fork of GIMP, and is focused on image manipulations for moving pictures." We've mentioned Film Gimp several times lately; it'll be even handier as programs like Cinelerra and Kino grow more polished.

    Sadly enough this is showing how weak their justification of the name change is. Film Gimp is the damned thing's name, and CinePaint really does sound too much like MS Paint to take seriously. Shoulda kept Film Gimp or went with Film-Fu. Morons.
