[aklug] Re: Gimp 2.7 (rocks)

I haven't tried 2.7 yet, still on 2.6, but have heard good things.
I do use Gimp pretty regularly to edit property photos.

I have never figured out "drawing" on a computer. At least, not with mouse
and keyboard. Would like to get my hands on a drawing pad at some point and
see if I can do any better :-)
