10 Sweet GIMP Photo Editing Tricks to Wean You Off Photoshop

,----[ Quote ]
| You could buy a used car -- albeit not a 
| very good one -- for the same scratch it 
| takes to pick up a copy of Adobe Photoshop, 
| the de facto standard in high-end photo 
| editing software. Or a pair of GTX 285 
| graphics cards for that killer SLI setup 
| you've always wanted. We could go on, but 
| at $700 for a piece of software, 
| Photoshop's MSRP hardly needs put into 
| perspective. In short, it's expensive.

| program that I've tried.

| The singing octave is not important, 
| because as long as you get the right note 
| in any octave, you will get full points. 
| Singing near the correct note likewise 
| gives some points, but the amount of points 
| per second decreases as you get farther 
| from the right tone. Singing within the 
| right semitone consistently gives full 
| points, so you may actually be off by a 
| quartertone and still get the points.

0 A.D. Promises Real Gaming for Ubuntu

| And now a brief break from business-
| oriented coverage on WorksWithU. As a 
| history Ph.D. student by day and free-
| software geek by night, I find that my 
| poles of interest rarely converge.  Thatâs 
| why I was so excited when the real-time 
| historical strategy game 0 A.D. was 
| switched to an open-source license in July.  
| Iâve been meaning since then to give it a 
| try, and finally found the time and 
| hardware necessary to do that.  Here are 
| the results.
