Users of Wrye bash should not be led to install now known bogus/crapware. -The Monkeys.\r\nWhat this means is if users still have a copy of the software installer that is not corrupted(A Offline backup), then they can add it to the one of the 18 Custom Launchers in bash.ini or provide a Shortcut link with newer bash at thier own risk.\r\n\r\nOn the flip-side, There has been a project over the years that has finally came into the light of Professional Graphic Artists as a usable Open Source alternative 'like-Photoshop-like'.\r\nThat app is called Krita [https://krita.org/]. It has my full support and recommendation, and a few Kickstarter bucks to employ the full time programmers to try and make it as fast as Photoshop by Krita version 3.1 with a new app code base for rendering/etc.\r\nAdd in that built-in App Launcher to replace the GIMPShop one.\r\n\r\nI'll review the other Open Source Apps supported for mal-ity also as a stone would."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/wrye-bash/wrye-bash/issues/comments/136453299","html_url":"https://github.com/wrye-bash/wrye-bash/issues/230#issuecomment-136453299","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/wrye-bash/wrye-bash/issues/230","id":136453299,"user":{"login":"alt3rn1ty","id":7154410,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/7154410?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty","html_url":"https://github.com/alt3rn1ty","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alt3rn1ty/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-08-31T18:23:55Z","updated_at":"2015-08-31T18:23:55Z","body":"Hi Moo, good to see you again\r\n\r\nDidnt know about GIMPShop, but also reference anything on sourceforge .. Dont go there. Its been known for a while that installers get piggyback ad/malware\r\nUse original sites where possible such as ..\r\nhttp://www.gimp.org/\r\n( Have a read of their statement \"GIMP PROJECT'S OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON SOURCEFORGE'S ACTIONS\" )\r\n\r\nOriginal GIMP is fine"}}
