uhh... I don't  use photoshop because it's on my powerbook which I rarely need to take anywhere anymore... so... here are a couple PSP things:

I was bored, so I edited my face in to this image (hint: it's an angry face):

Really?  I find it (like everything in linux) a lot less user friendly to use.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

Totally disagree here.  For instance, here is what I see when I insert a blank cd into my CD burner (Linux/Gnome):





Or how about when a system/software update is available?




Or how about when I want to easily install a peice of software, say a well known open sourced application.  On linux, I dont have to crawl the internet for it, I can just use gnome/debian's/ubuntu's package manager (AKA synaptic)




That's just to name a couple.  Take a look at Gnome's menu structure if you can find a screenshot of it.  (i.e. the Start menu).  Observer how well laid out and categorized the programs are into their respective categories.  There is no nested control that you have to fight your way to get to it, it is all laid out there.  Wish I could give you a screenshot of my Gnome system preferences menu.  Much better than windows IMO.

As for GIMP, IMO it is equivalent in features as Photoshop 7.0, it is just harder for a photoshop user to get into using the Gimp because it requires you to re-learn what you know about Photoshop editing in order to get the results you want.

Windows does that stuff too.

Anyway...

I used GIMP for a little while but I really don't have need for anything like that.. and a class I was in required Photoshop so I was not about to pay for a set of programs and not use them.

You sorta missed the point.  Also, Windows doesn't do those last two.  Vista will be playing catchup with with the update manager (no more Windows Update web page).  Also, Vista will include a UI system similar to XGL, already available in linux.

I don't mean that it isn't easy to check email or browse the web.  Gnome and KDE do a good job of making those things easy.  Install ATI's video card drivers, non-packaged software, etc.  Stuff like that just isn't mature yet.  Not to say it can't be done, it just isn't very friendly (especially to people that aren't good at computers already).

There's no reason that they can't make an installer that does it just as easily as it is done in Windows.  It should take care of exporting system vars, setting compilers, installing dependencies, etc automatically from a GUI.  You can install drivers for x.org even when it is running.  All you have to do is restart x for it to take effect (ala ctrl+alt+backspace) or issing the commands in the installer.  ATI is ahead of nVidia on that one--only problem is that their GUI installers don't actually do anything.

So true that the ATI graphical installer does NOTHING.  

To Lidge, Linux's update manager kills windows update.  Using IE for installing updates was just a bad idea, IMO.

would rant more, but gtg to class.
