I tried GIMP about 5 years ago, but wasn't able to make it work as well as Photoshop. If I recall correctly, it didn't support the CYMK color profile either. |

We ran linux for awhile--but it was before there were a lot of apps that would run on it.
With a son who liked computer gaming that flew like a lead balloon.
Now that he's not around so much--we should give it a try. The only other app. that we would use is a photoshop type program.

I'm curious a bit. Are there any Linux users between you guys? |
Yeah, I know I'm really late jumping in here, but yes, I'm a linux guy (but mainly just at work).
