** Description changed: Binary package hint: gimp Here's The Gimp description in the software center: "GIMP lets you draw, paint, edit images, and much more! GIMP includes the functionality and plug-ins of other famous image editing and processing programs. If you'd like to be able to open files remotely (like over HTTP or FTP), install the gvfs-backends package. If you'd like to use a MIDI device as an input controller in GIMP, install libasound2 and read the how-to at /usr/share/doc/gimp/README.MIDI If you'd like to be able to read and write PostScript files from GIMP, install the ghostscript package." As you can see, the majority of the text is geeky. + + [Suggested description] + ----- + GIMP is an advanced picture editor. You can use it to edit, enhance, + and retouch photos and scans, create drawings, and make your own images. + Lots of tools are available; you can sharpen and resize photos, and + remove dust and red-eyes, for example. + + It has a large collection of professional-level editing tools and + filters, similar to the ones you might find in PhotoShop. Numerous + fine-control settings and features like layers, paths, masks, and + scripting give you total control over your images. + + Many image file formats are supported, including JPEG, PhotoShop (.psd), + and Paint Shop Pro (.psp) files. It can also be used to scan and print + photos. + -----
