Thanks Jaws...
This forum means a lot to me, and I have big dreams for it. And I am thankful for the great bunch o people we already have around. And my word out to you guys is... "keep postin"
If you come across item of interest, knowledge, etc.... please share it.
I have just opened the Town Hall at the top in the general area to everyone. This was first used as a place where admin & mods could list, look over, and talk about which graphics programs to add in the forum... but now I want everyone to be able to bring up items they come across within our area of interest (Linux Graphics Programs)
There is one I came across a while back which is not yet ported to Linux, but the Developer for it would actually love it to happen, but needs the assistance of Linux Devs to get it done.... So it will be listed here soon to see if we can help this to become a reality (which is just exactly the type of thing this forum was designed for) to not only provide a common ground for well-established programs... but to try to get lesser known,& non ported programs within our reach and expand the options for the linux Artist
Just as we have our friend Sawer... who is trying to figure out how to fix a bug within the "Pencil" program (Thanks Sawer)... so that it can become a useful / enjoyable tool for others.
Some programs are already set-up within one distro, but may not be for another.... this is another area which this forum / members can help with.
A few great video & text tutorials already exest here (thanks guys).... yet another way this forum can be useful....
These are the things I am hoping to see this forum do.... unite "all" artists within the Linux Platform... to help each other based on our common interest & love of art... not on our distro of preference
