The reality is that most companies re-use their print artwork in their websites. Unless the gimp becomes suitable for print-work there will never be a wide adoption by agencies. Print workflows are tightly coupled with web workflows.
IDK about you but to me a computer and the software on it are a tool to get stuff done. You will have a hard time making the argument to me that increasing the amount of software that can run on linux is a bad thing or something I should not care about.
In AE, it is not just smart filters but any raster image interaction that can be done this way.
Compositions make for a much neater organization of image elements. It also allows you to use an element in more than one spot in an image without having to create a duplicate of the element, saving on memory and also allowing you to modify the element in one place.
You only work on a low res proxy of an image so you don't have to load the whole damn thing in memory.
Adobe has done things to PS to make it more "AE like" but they are inferior to AE. The AE composition paradigm is a very simple and elegant concept.
I think the photoshop interface is horrible. If you want to look at a powerful image editing paradigm check out Adobe After Effects. Although a video editing/special effects package it could apply directly to photo/print editing. The endless levels of composition and the post-rendering are incredibly powerful.
If they built an AE interface on top of the gimp engine we could have a truly special piece of free software.
Dogs are genetically identical to wolves. What does this have to do with evolution?
In fact, I believe that this has brought up one of the largest deficiencies in academic study-- documentation and proof of mutations causing an advantageous adaptation in a species. We certainly have the tools to do it, but does not have the flash that anthropological studies have.
We recycle aluminum because it is easy to recycle. Steel alloys are irreversibly contaminated by materials such as tin and cadmium which are used to give it corrosion resistance.
Slashdot Mirror
your assertion that AE was grafted on the photoshop engine is completely false. What is there to say?

Bullshit. After Effects was purchased outright from a company.
Photoshop has a boatload of interface cruft in it's design and it shows.

Perhaps linux will be stronger if it learns to acknowledge the existence proprietary software vs remaining a religious movement.
It's the things that the GIMP doesn't do that relegates it to toy status.

Yes, like it or not cost analysis and time to market are integral to engineering. Finding the correct balance is what make a great engineer.
The OP was speaking about US law. Why the unnecessary tangent?

You could argue this about any government sponsored technology program. But in all seriousness, where would we be now without any of them?
Photographs are probably one of the most important types of biometric information used by the police, and I don't see any objections to this.
Actually the Police and FBI have been collecting Biometric information for decades, in the form of photographs.
That's not true. Polar bears are known to stalk and kill humans.
I mentioned that we were entering a recession yesterday and was attacked, but I guess since you are towing the /. party line it's okay.
We are entering a hard recession. By next year the employees morale will be high because they have a job.
Your eyes sensitivity to light is logarithmic, so yes, it is significant.
Middleware like you mentioned also helps keep a company SOX 404 compliant.

Yeah, and most loan deals are put together weeks or months before closing. We would have already heard something by now.
Ever hear of 40 year loans? There is nothing 'special' about this weekend.
"Some 30-year loan calculation software might start having problems with this over the weekend."
WTF would this have to do with an interest calculation???
In Korea only old people wear robotic exoskeletons....
...and with good reason. If your child is hurt you run the risk of losing them to the state or being thrown in jail.
