It really looks nice, but it would be better if you had kept it al little bit sharper. You're name would be displayed better than, I think.

I think it's one of the best I've ever seen, but that border is... something, I don't know. Seems like it doesn't belong there. |

All two of them? (Four, if we count shades as different colours...)
Nice and simples. *insert Meerkat noise here*
if shades aren't counted then everything could be counted as a shade of white or black? Not too sure if that works out, but I can image how you could describe black as a shade of red for example.

Well, no. If I cast my mind back to those Art lessons I spent smoking out of the window, I distinctly remember a shade having no colour... Limited to black and white. Or something like that. I don't know.
All I was saying was there's a lack of colour... But I have a short attention span. Anything that doesn't scream at me with flash colours tends to go unnoticed, unless highlighted.
I do remember the ol' blacks my favourite colour... blacks not a colour.... blah blah blah coming form art teachers.

Nothing wrong with the colours. Although as said before, the border is a little bit to bright, since the rest of the image is softened.
All in all, it is a very good sig 
I've tried a while a go to create a background for one of my websites with sort of same style as you've got in the middle of the image, but unfortunately I failed xD

Debugging is what programmers do to beta software to make it take up more room on your hard drive if it is running too efficiently.

True that PS cost, usually, but It is more user friendly. Plus I like have one window instead of five.

Piss around with it for a couple of hours, you'll get used to it.
(Also, check out the X-ray technique, as I think it's called. Then you *really* will be messing around with it for hours)
My mom was behind me when I googled that........
She wasn't happy 
The irony of man's condition is that the deepest need is to be free of the anxiety of death and annihilation; but it is life itself which awakens it, and so we must shrink from being fully alive.

I like photoshop and gimp, but agree photoshop's price is excessive there are lots of things you cna do in photoshop that you can't do (with a single click that is ) in gimp, and visa versa.
But the number one reason to hate gimp is.... the friggin tool window doesn't appear in the task bar, which means I can't get at the fucker without clicking show desktop and individually maximising windows. there must be a way around this, but such default behaviour is horednous.

Just tried it on linsux and nope nothing, maybe winblows only? Sometimes I have quite a few windows open (admitedly no where near as many as yours) but still enough that having to minimise them one by one to get to the toolbox window is fucking annoying.

I have a feeling we're talking about different things so here.

I only ever get one window in the taskbar... Iww. KDE. What distro are you running?
Seems linux and windows gimp differs, or maybe we're runnign different versions... idk...
Mandriva powerpack 2010 64bit.
Also KDE > gnome... And even more so, KDE4 > gnome 3.
Unless you mean you prefer xfce or fluxbox or something to kde, in which case I put it to you that they serve different purposes, and shouldn't be directly compared.

Look up. I figured out it was Mandriva just before you posted. Check my logo recognition skills.
Gnome 3 isn't out yet, but I have tested the shell they provide as a "desktop effect", and really, it's just plain sexy. I run GIMP 2.7 on Fedora, but before that I only remember having one button in the bar...
I also like using LXDE for the speed, and the minimalistic look, which can look quite good with the right background image for the bars.
KDE is just too... Bloated, buggy, unnecessarily flashy - which often causes awful glitches - and the main bar is too large by default, and if I try shrinking it down to a size that suits me, half of the icons hang over the top, and it cuts window buttons in half. I can use it every now and then, but after a while, it just bugs me. And the login screen takes too long to load, and then to log you in. It does look nice, though... And I am a fan of things looking nice... I never understood just why fedora took away that AMAZING start-up screen (Fedora 10 - Solar)...
typed butt loads before hbh went offline, but there's the gist:
I've had none of the problems you mention, it is ofcourse slow and bloated compared to low profile DE's but I own a awesome computer to allow me to use such application wihtout much of a problem.
And fedora's portsmouth /southhamtom thing? Idk, only time I have every used fedora was to see that, if they've taken it out then for me fedora lacks any use.
