Re: gimp 64-bit

Speaking just for myself, I don't find 2.8.0 a stale release, at least on Windows.  I keep reading about issues with the tools crashing, performance problems, slowdowns with lcms, wacom problems, etc, so I keep plugging along with the last 2.6 stable for any work I do for clients.

As much as I yearn for some of the great new features, I can't afford to risk loosing work, so I'm waiting for 2.8.1

Additionally, I have yet to port the dozens of scripts I've created and use to 2.8, and would hate to hit a situation where I needed them and had to stop to fix them. (just a lack of time issue on my part).

Rob, hello.

 

Would you consider the latest 64-bit version a stable release, and how has the support been with it in general?  Thanks.

I have been using Partha's 2.7.x dev builds with much success, so I just migrated over to the 2.8 builds from the same site.

Isn't inertia grand?

Hello, Rob. It might be helpful to me to understand what makes you prefer his over one of the alternatives?  Also, do you use the 64-bit version? Thanks.
