Fedora
This FUDCon rests in peace
The words are already out. Yes, it is true, the FUDCon got canceled. But you can still meet us there. We can talk on some wounderful projects and ideas which we can implement.
Feel free to join us, in our laptops we will have LiveUSB stations , so if you bring your USB key , we can turn it into a magical USB key which will contain a full operating system.
Just remember to keep contributing in which ever form you can :)
A journey to showfoto
I use gimp as the main post process tool for my photographs. Which is anyway a very powerful tool. But most of the options available there are not required for me. Looked for another application which is lighter and powerful at the same time. I tried showfoto long back, never liked the UI that time. Thought of giving another try tonight.
I have a 0.10.0-beta5 installed in my F-9 system (the package came from rawhide though). After starting the application default options(buttons to click) look much lesser, cooler for eyes :)
I opened my raw image in it, took some time but came finally(Is there any chance to make it a bit faster ?). The first thing I tried was to adjust the level, found the desired dialogue after two clicks. All other basic required options are there in the color menu entry including brightness/saturation/channel mixer.
Btw, F10 and F11 buttons will help you to see under and over exposed places in the shot.
Here is a snap edited in showfoto.
You can find my other shots here.
It seems I can now use it for post processing, which also means I am back to digikam once agian :)
