The GIMP Now Has a Working Single-Window Mode

Posted by timothy on Tuesday August 23, 2011 @02:33AM from the how-long-were-the-contractions dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Phoronix is reporting that The GIMP now has a working single-window mode, a long desired feature by the open-source graphics community to be more competitive with Adobe Photoshop. There's also a number of other user highlights in the new GIMP 2.7.3 release. The GPLv3 graphics software can be downloaded at GIMP.org."

It's still called The GIMP. And the Linux fanboys can't figure out why their adoption rates are poor. Can you imagine getting up in front of a board and being asked what tool you used? Or trying to start a company initiative to switch people over to The GIMP?
In the grown up world, people don't giggle about ass-rape. All the name does is cause people to doubt the GIMP team's professionalism. It's a distraction. Can't we at least get a fork that just changes the branding?
