Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP name, icon and general graphic look

I am a graphic designer and I disagree with your premise that GIMP needs a 
revamp to its "look". The world is full of products that have a great 
"look"or are even "sexy" but don't deliver. GIMP delivers. I want software 
that works and is stable.

• What is of far greater importance, IMHO, is functionality. Does it work as 
advertised? Yes.
• Does it install easily? Is it stable? Critical to being accepted.
• Is the interface well-designed (absolutely critical for usability)? Mostly 
(v 2.8).
• Does it have a good manual/help system? Yes, once you get used to it.
• Can the manual be better? Yes.
• Can the appearance of the GUI be changed to suit the user? In other words 
does it have an option to get rid of that gawd-awful flat black livery. 
Hopefully.

Cosmetic changes are a waste of time.
Focus on functionality and the GUI.

I am not asking the developers to carry on this task, they have to invest
their time in coding and make GIMP more and more valid.
