<span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 51);">"I didn't see a lot of direct answers to this question though --- what
is Krita's reason for being? What will differentiate it from things
like Gimp or MyPaint</span>. 5 years ago, there were a lot of gaps in the Gimp, and Krita seemed targeted to fill those gaps."<br><br><br><font color="#000000">I think there is no reason for differentiation</font>. Many programs looks like each other. Krita is a raster image manipulation software, very nice, confortable, with a lot of options. I'm happy of get a QT program so promising like Krita. For me, Gimp is great, but lucks in high and proffesional image editing. The interface is unconfortable, confusing. Gimp is like the defunct "image ready" graphics for web. It's image scaling is awfull, lot of pluggins and effects works,but not efficiently. For me is a mess (and is like a toy may be). <br>
Think Krita must be a raster image program well designed, and proffesional for real work, in pre-press, in web, in post-production and in photography retouching, not forgetting than amazing brush tools for matte paiting artists :)<br>

</div>I don't think those were very good or even very focussed. Enkithan has<br>
prepared a really good user story last week, and I'd like to take that as a<br>
starting point.<br>
<br>
However, on going over this thread it's becoming clear to me that getting any<br>
sort of focus, especially focus on user needs will be a difficult task.<br>
