plural GIMPers

  1. A user of the open-source raster graphics editor GIMP.

    Anyway, there it is - I'm going, and I'd love to travel with someone. So if there are GIMPers in the South of France or around the middle bit (or even in Paris) who are going, let me know.

    I don't have intellectual property rights to much of this, so it will have to remain closely held, but I was happy that I just found out I have a hobby of which I wasn't aware. I suspect many other GIMPers would find the same if they went looking.

    The GIMPers will sing in full chorus too. They have their points but their shrill defense is a hint as well... plain fact is GIMP runs slower, has a clunky and awkward GUI and does some things in a human loop iteration that is time wasting (USM comes to mind).
