Honest to gods, this conversation happened today, and it may have cost me a job opportunity. The customer was super impressed with my menu design and animation, and wanted to know who we got it from. When I said I did it, their face lit up! Too bad as soon as i said GIMP, they weren’t interested anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you say in similar situations?

      recent upstream [GIMP] changes have moved in directions that don’t fit Artbox’s focus. […] Artbox will now remain as a stable, maintenance-only project. Updates will be limited to essential fixes or build adjustments when necessary. […] Without the need to maintain a rebase, I can simplify development and use AI-assisted refactoring to turn it into a lean, specialized digital painting application.

      This doesn’t inspire much confidence in me that the project will see much regular enhancement and development.
