Photoshopâs CAF (content-aware fill) - unbelievable? Not quite.
,----[ Quote ]
| They can rest assured - it is possible and
| it has been around for years, e.g. in the
| GIMP plugin by Paul Harrison called
| Resynthesizer.

Development GIMP Version 2.7 Review
,----[ Quote ]
| GIMP 2.7 seems to always start in multi-
| window mode, even if the user closes GIMP
| in single-window mode. Although this may
| have just been a misconfiguration with our
| GIMP, proper configuration won't be
| completely implemented until GIMP 2.8's
| release.
|
| There is another thing. If you maximize the
| window and then switch tabs it unmaximizes,
| bringing the window back to the size it was
| before maximizing.
|
| With minor GEGL improvements, the current
| development version of GIMP 2.7 doesn't
| appear to have that many new features.
| We'll review GIMP again in a while. Until
| next time...

GIMP 2.8 development still under control
,----[ Quote ]
| A while back I announced the creation of a
| schedule for GIMP 2.8 development. I've
| made sure to keep this schedule up to date,
| and after a bunch of initial adjustments
| such as postponing some feature and adding
| others, the schedule has now stabilized a
| bit. The estimated date for a release
| candidate is still in December 2010.
| Tracking progress with a schedule really
| helps you to feel in control of
| development. The 2.4 development cycle
| which I were around in the end of, and the
| 2.6 development cycle which I were fully
| part of, were more chaotic with no
| commitment to a delivery date. This is
| perfectly fine for many, but I prefer
| structured development.

[Meet the GIMP] Episode 136: Shrinking a Bass Player
,----[ Quote ]
| I got the planned episode 136 nearly ready
| â a photography trip to Hamburg. But then
| came an urgent job from Chicago and
| overturned the schedule. (No, John, it
| wasnât urgent, it was convenient to have a
| bit more time to edit the Hamburg show).

Adobe's "Magic" Is Gimp's Old Plug-In
,----[ Quote ]
| Suddenly the graphics world is all atwitter
| about this miraculous new feature they're
| previewing in Photoslop. A Photoslop team
| guy has a video up with a "sneak preview"
| of what they're calling "Content-Aware
| Fill." As soon as I saw it, I remembered
| some plug-in that I'd tried in Gimp long
| ago, but couldn't remember what it was.

Episode 137: A Trip to Hamburg
,----[ Quote ]
| I mention two podcasts worth to follow.
| Jeff Curtoâs âThe History of Photographyâ
| and The Worldâs âTechnology Podcastâ. And
| then there is the Haus der Photographie in
| the Deichtorhallen, which has good
| exhibitions and a good bookstore. The map
| in the bbegin was provided by the Open
| Street Map Project.

Photoshop CS4 vs. GIMP 2.6.6
,----[ Quote ]
| What GIMP 2.6.6 offers that Photoshop CS4 does
| not:
|
| * You can open and edit several formats in
| GIMP 2.6.6 which includes support for PSD
| files. But Photoshop CS4 does not extend
| the same support to XCD files which the
| native file format for GIMP.
| * You can open a layered image as a flat
| file without merging the layers in GIMP
| directly from the 'File' menu, which is not
| possible in Photoshop CS4. Even after you
| open a file without layers in GIMP, the
| original properties are intact, unless you
| edit and save the file.
| * There are several plug-ins features which
| are not usually used. This reduced system
| resources effectively.
|
| Being an open source application, it supports a
| large number of add-ons and plug-ins to give
| you real time software updates. What's more you
| have complete check on your system resources as
| you will download only those functionalities
| that you need!

Free GIMP Button Brushes
,----[ Quote ]
| The buttons are in greyscale so can be colored
| any way you like; they are without text to
| make it easier for you to customize them; and
| they are quicker to use than the scripts that
| originally created them. The ones shown in the
| image are only exemplary of the goodies given
| away in the download.
