Yeah, I was talking about kdefx. Is kimagefx so different from kdefx?

(Actually, until today I didn't know what kdefx was supposed to be doing...)

Sure, I'd look for kimagelib or libkimage. But a library named kimagefx is 
obviously an extension to kimage for some special purpose named fx (which I 
still have absolutely no idea what it is the abbreviation for... Can you 
please enlighten me!). As I don't know what FX is at all, so this can't be 
the general image library in my eyes, so I'd continue looking in other 
kdelibs modules for the basic image manipulation functionality.

Cheers,
Reinhold
