Automatic tab style and removed tab title bar 

,----[ Quote ]
| Along with the removal of the docking bars a 
| while back, the result is that GIMP has gotten a 
| cleaner and more space efficient UI. There's a 
| lot of things that could be further improved of 
| course, but this is what I wanted to do for 2.8. 
| And the single-window mode. Speaking of, I 
| haven't had much time for that lately either, but 
| I'm sure it'll all be fine eventually.

How will a fully GEGL powered GIMP look like?

,----[ Quote ]
| Many of you already know that the free graph 
| based library GEGL is still being integrated into 
| GIMP currently. So what about some visions how 
| GIMP could work or look like when integration is 
| finished and new features are implemented?

Morevna: Open Source Anime Using Synfig, Blender, Gimp, and Krita

,----[ Quote ]
| Synfig is an authoring tool designed from
| the ground up to do smooth animation
| without drawing multiple frames in between
| the key frames, a process called
| "tweening," meaning that the number of
| artists required to complete a major
| project is significantly reduced. The
| artist defines the position of the objects
| in two keyframes, chooses a path for the
| movement, and assigns filters or
| deformations, and the result is computer
| generated. I understand that normal anime
| has very few tween frames and limits
| motion on the screen to limit the amount
| of work artists have to do. Synfig's
| method means a smoother-looking movie with
| thirty frames per second and the ability
| to add more animated movement.

Photoshop VS. GIMP

,----[ Quote ]
| GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation
| Program. It is a freely distributed program
| for such tasks as photo retouching, image
| composition and image authoring.
|
| It has many capabilities. It can be used as a
| simple paint program, an expert quality photo
| retouching program, an online batch processing
| system, a mass production image renderer, an
| image format converter, etc.
