it's no photoshop replacement, not even photodelux replacement, but its okay for a basic program. it even imported a psd image file i had.
it still needs some work, a shapoed/sized pointer would be nice instead of just a crosshare pointer.

Well said - Couldn't agree with you more.For a possible PS replacement, search VT for "Acorn".

Perfectly said! Many of us just want something to change the color of a simple background image, etc....not professionally edit photos. This is a great little app for those looking for an image editor that follows the KIS principle.Larry

I take issue with this (in a VERY polite way).This is not meant to replace PhotoShop - that is for the gimp project.
What this app does it does WELL. Isn't that the point of OSS? To do its intended function well with no bloat?
I am NOT a graphics person so maybe that is why I am happy just to have something which works well and easily. However, even graphics experts must need something like this where you can do a simple edit w/o going through 10 steps.
BTW - if anyone knows of another PhotoShop replacements beside gimp please reply to my comment above and let me know.
Thanks,
Paul
