Hi Tim,

I've not played with this much - also unsure if it has a windows 64bit

Hi Holger,

thanks for the tip on cinepaint, formerly known as Film Gimp,
the brother of gimp but not available for Windows currently...

http://www.cinepaint.org/

They are about to release an update Dec. 15th, so maybe
this will include an XP/XP64 release.

Cheers and thanks for the heads-up
