Photoshop Vs GIMPshop
I've been using photoshop for a few years now, and I really love it. I find it easy to use, and it's the defacto web design software available. But some years ago I heard about the Gimp, which is a completely free, open source graphic design package which, while it doesn't claim to be a photoshop clone, a cheap replacement for everyone's favorite photo editing software is what it's most often used for, and what I use it for whenever I decide I'd like to try something a little more on the OSS side.
Well, there are a number of differences between PS and Gimp, mostly in it's presentation within Windows. GIMPshop, a derivative of Gimp, sets to change that. Does it succeed? Find out my thoughts below.

I Hate Everything About the Things That You Choose to Be: Addendum
So, it only took me maybe 1/2 an hour to get my site looking right in IE tonight (my site this time being this site right here). Had a problem with the top of the tag cloud, but, well, I've gotten better with design and css since I made that sucker. I had some crazy contraption of hidden spans and absolutely positioned divs that just made no sense. In less 13375p34k: the site was poorly coded, and now I know what I'm doing, and it works in IE and Fx. Joy to the freaking world.
Oh but I still hate IE.
