Ask the folks in the advertising department. Probably they regularly do a lot more than resizing new photos. The fact is, professionals prefer PS not because it is "what they know", but because it does what they need. Even excusing the convoluted UI, GIMP *does not* fill the needs of *most* professionals.

That's nice. Do you often work with 20 and 30 layer images? No?

This is a point that seems lost on most Slashdotters: Most of the people that use Facebook are quite happy with its "privacy" rules. They willingly supply personal information, and have the expectation that it will be spread about. Thus, Facebook is mostly a problem for those that don't use it.

The Vicar has already seen the boy "roped off", the element of suction adds more excitement to it.

In other words, it will become a bloated mess.

I don't know either, perhaps someone can frame it as a car analogy.

Yes, well, I suppose that is "geek porn" of a sort. But it's not what I had in mind.

So, again, rather than strutt around with your balls all oiled up and your ass in the air, why not just browse with Lynx? Or is that not "leet" enough for you?

That's fine and dandy. IF.

If you don't care to see or experience the vast majority of web sites on the Intertubes today.

Honestly, when I see (yet another) pious elitist bleating about no-script or whatever, I wonder: Why don't you just surf in Lynx?

If you're surfing with no-script, you're missing 75% of the Internet. If it's not the 75% you want to see and or experience, than good for you. But bleating about the creative uses of JavaScript on the World Wide Web is old news.
