Cinepaint with GTK+2 Widgets on Gentoo…
,----[ Quote ]
| Rather than have the outdated GTK+1.4 widgets marring my otherwise beautiful
| GTK+ Xfce 4.4.2 Desktop Environment, and not wanting to put “weird”
| or “unharmonious” widget sets on my Boxen, yet finding that as a Photo
| Enthusiast requiring greater than 8-bit color depth, I decided to give
| CinePaint’s, and it’s experimental GTK+2 sources a chance.

| At first, studios had no choice but to develop Linux applications in house.
| The film industry has millions of lines of Linux code, both desktop
| applications and server pipelines. Studio Linux programmers write code in
| C++, Python, Perl, and Java. What does all this secret proprietary Linux code
| do? And, why do they do parallel programming with grid computing? How does
| the film industry use renderfarms with thousands of CPUs?

If it's animation or special effects, it's Linux

| Rowe's not just being a Linux booster. It's the Gospel truth. The animation
| and FX for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull; Star Wars: The
| Clone Wars; WALL-E; 300; The Golden Compass; Harry Potter and the Order of
| the Phoenix; and I Am Legend, to name but a few recent movies, were all
| created using Pixar's RenderMan and Autodesk Maya running on Linux clusters.
