Ok, now I see stuff. Maybe I was looking at the page as downloaded a few 
days ago :-).

Heh, except I'd have to learn at least as much Krita guts as the student 
;-). Otherwise I'd like to, but I'm not sure I'd find the time. (Hmm, 
well, I like the sumi-e project though.)

Which reminds me of something, but time to start a new thread methinks.

Actually, PSD import (if you mean to include PS7 support*) probably gets 
my strongest vote; I am in serious need of a PSD7 import plugin for 
something (the GIMP and Painter plugins are insufficient) to try to 
recover a corrupt document I have (one layer is toast, as a result PS 
won't load any of it, and everything else non-proprietary I've tried 
loses too much information). Does someone have access to PS7 or later?

(* which, "coincidentally", would benefit muchly from generator layers ;-).)

Somewhere, there is a .sig so funny that reading it will cause an 
aneurysm. I haven't found it yet, but I think I met a few of the runners-up.
