[Wolves] GIMP 2.0pre3 - anyone tried it?

[Jono Bacon]

Hi,

I saw this - is the UI *really* that different?

I don't want to start up an MDI war here as it has all
been discussed before, but there are a shitload of
photoshop users who love MDI who are put off coming
over and using GIMP. It is a shame they don't at least
have an option to enable it so both sets of users are
happy.
