gthumb vs fspot

,----[ Quote ]
| On the whole you could replace f-spot with 
| gthumb and most users simply wouldn't 
| notice, f-spot does organising no better or 
| worse now, it's only 2 big advantages I see 
| are uploading to online galleries and 
| timeline view.

GIMP going to get the boot in Ubuntu Lucid 

,----[ Quote ]
| # One of the ways of introducing people to 
| alternative software is to include it in 
| the default installation of Linux and have 
| it readily accessible to the users from the 
| menu. Removing GIMP would mean encouraging 
| people to think that Linux is "not ready 
| for serious users."
| 
| # If saving space on the disk is the major 
| issue, why not replace OpenOffice.org with 
| equivalent software such as Abiword and 
| Gnumeric ? After all, how many general 
| users of Linux (or Windows for that matter) 
| use a word processor or spread sheet 
| program? And OpenOffice.org occupies far 
| more space than GIMP.
| 
| # GIMP's user interface may be out of the 
| ordinary. But to those who have gotten used 
| to this interface, Photoshop's interface is 
| out of the ordinary. (Believe me, I use 
| GIMP for touching up and preparing all the 
| images you see on this blog. And I find 
| GIMP a lot more intutive than Photoshop). 
| Bottom line is, it is a matter of getting 
| used to.
