[Digikam-users] Virtual Box experiences

[Alan Klughammer]

For Rinus,
I am seriously into photography (see some of my work at
http://alanklughammer.com/portfolio/updates) and while I *can* do most
of what I want with RawTherapee and Gimp, it is easier and faster to do
in Photoshop. Adjustment layers with masks are way more efficient, and
easier to modify, than separate image layers. 
I am actually going back to Photoshop after 3 or 4 years of using Gimp
exclusively. I had CS5 working in wine until the last update, now I
can't seem to get it to work....
