The release notes speak of scalable bitmap brushes, redesigned rectangle/ellipse selection tools, redesigned crop tool, a new foreground selection tool, a new align tool, reorganized menu layouts, improved zoomed in/zoomed out image display quality, improved printing and color management support and a new perspective clone tool."

    Do these gimp guys ever see what they are they making?

    Look at the screenshots http://www.gimp.org/screenshots/ page. They are using some junk javascript which doesn't even resize even properly. How can they do it? They claim to have best image editor on Linux but they don't know how to present those images? I am really frustrated.

    GIMP lacks Quality assurance not only in application but website too.

    Not to understate all the effort that has been put into it, but something like that does seem pretty basic for three years of development. Yes, it does feel like they've taken a page out of the Vista playbook.
