Graphic Design Blog > 5 Useful and Fun GIMP Plug-ins

[Make Tech Easier] Kudos really goes to those who have worked so hard to develop these plug-ins and those package managers who have volunteered their time and effort to make them so easily part of the GIMP on Ubuntu systems; I suspect that the other major Linux distros (Fedora, Slack) have similarly convenient workflows, and that packages (“.exe installers”) for Windows might be available.

[Omg! Ubuntu!] Adobe: “Creative Suite for Linux definitely on the radar”: I know what your saying, BUT I have also seen the linux side of things that people like you have caused, I have had people bring me systems that some tech installed linux on for them because the tech felt it was better for the user to have linux then windows, yet linux either couldnt offer them the hardware or app support they needed, or the tech emailed them how to fix something via commandline and they really couldnt follow how, so they ended up borking the install(such as when the GUI to change display settings wouldnt load so the tech told the person how to do it by command line, and they messed up so baddly that x wouldnt even load, oh yeah that was a joy to fix….)

[Talk Photography] GIMP Startrail plug-in - Talk Photography: When I was looking into doing startrails on my mac I noted that there wasn't really many options for non-windows users who didn't want to spring/pirate photoshop. So seeing as my PS trial is going to run out soon I decided to try use GIMP to do it.

[Pixel2Life.com: Gimp Tutorials] Compiling GIMP from CVS (HEAD) with Ubuntu 6.06 - Gimptalk ...: I had it very briefly installed with Slackware (and by the way, all Slack distros after 10.0 don't even come with Gnome, because of the stability issues), anyway, Gnome took over both KDE and XFCE. I had a KDE taskbar with a Gnome desktop...if I right clicked on the desktop, I got the Gnome menu instead of the KDE menu.

I installed oxygen-gtk on my laptop running KDE 4.6 and the effect it has on the looks of applications like Firefox, Gimp, Pidgin etc.. is stunning. Of course, the integration is most effective if you are using the Oxygen theme in KDE as well! ...

[Twenty Sided] The Virus, Follow-Up - Twenty Sided: I switched to taskbar-on-the-left for a while when I was running PnP games online, because I’d have like 12 documents open at once and when you have a horizontal taskbar at the bottom of your screen, once you get past like 3 things open (especially if you have a bunch of icons in your system tray) you got no effing clue what anything is. So I made myself a nice wide taskbar on the left side of the screen that could list my 10 or 12 items in a nice vertical column.

[Frihost - Digest] Which Linux distribution is the best?: I don't see what linspire has that much to offer among the pack and I am generally not that fond of it because of its whole history from being Lindows and then suddenly not being lindows (but that's a whole other story) Debian is also worth trying because it comes with tons and I mean tons of software included ( I believe if it has the largest open source software collection) though its lack of a graphical installer may turn off alot of people (though I hear thats in the works at the moment) certainly Debian though is well known for its stabilty and security as an O/S (because of the fact that its development cycle is a good while longer than some of the other distros out there) All in all I would say its really a matter of preference for each person for simplicity i'd reccomend Ubuntu, for those wanting eye candy Suse, and for those wanting great support i'd say Fedora.
