30 second video for the GIMP project: New features & work from the past year

Okay, so there was not enough interest in doing the interview montage, so I'm back-burnering that one. :)

So instead, let's show them what's new in GIMP! I am doing a brief video commercial for the GIMP project with updates from the last year. So what are you favourite GIMP features/progress.

This will replace the "two slides" at LGM, with something much more swish and polished to show off the hard work that's been done in GIMP over the last year (starting from or around April last year).

What I need: A list of your favourite new features in GIMP (developed in the last year, or that will be finished and/or working by the date of LGM in April).

I will combine them with mine and submit a video (after showing to everyone on this mailing list and #gimp to make sure we have all the facts right.

Cheers. -C

My favs are:
- improvements in color management and high bit depth color support, as they show that GIMP is a serious tool for professional work. I haven't tested them thoroughly yet, so some more testing and stabilizing might be necessary until LGM. - UI improvements, such as the new professional theme. - The unified transform tool (UTT) and the the handle transform tool. In my local tests on OS X the UTT's performance was a bit slow yet, so there might be performance improvements necessary.

Secondly I think if we had such a video at LGM we should negotiate and provide a 2.9.4. release with working builds for Windows, OS X and Linux at LGM, so people would be able to play with GIMP's new capabilities after the video made them curious and hungry.

Greetings

For me, that would include the following:

1. On-screen preview filters 2. Unified Transform tool
3. Blend tool
4. Foreground selection tool
5. MyPaint brushes
6. Color history
7. Canvas rotation

Having a 2.9.4 release would be awesome! :) I can also help with an LGM/London splash screen for that GIMP release if we'd like to draw more eyes to LGM. It's always nice to have custom kit for special occasions. :)
