It is a Chinese learning software that includes : - Lessons viewer - Flash card game - A dictionary - Characters viewer - Tones recognition game - Database of learned characters
I started the project a month ago and I am looking for interested people to contribute or give me feedback.
The code is in python using gtk for the interface, the dictionary database comes from the cc-cedict project : http://cc-cedict.org/.
Personally I just use graphic softwares for computer games drawings. Since I never print my work the bad CMYK support of The Gimp is not a problem for me.
What really sucks in The Gimp is that there are no adjustment layers ! It is really annoying when you want to change the colors of some part of the image
I can't wait for GEGL to be included in the gimp for that reason !
Anyway I think some clever guys should try to create a new open source image retouching project not written in C. So here is my advice for someone who has time to kill :
1- create a graphics library with hight meta computing optimization in the D language
3- create a GUI app over it
4- add python plugins capacity
4- profit !
For example right now I have to work with a code made by other people, with there own lousy implementation of a regular expression parser. Crazy. not only it is probably full of bugs, but it also makes me waste my time having to learn there API that I will never use again.
