I've used MyPaint myself, but I don't really consider it
a fair replacement for GIMP. You can create fancy
looking stuff with it, but it's clearly geared towards
digital painting, not image editing.<br>
<br>
Krita is KDE/Qt, so that makes it pretty much out of
question.

<div class="gmail_extra">I would be against replacing ristretto
with something that tries to be both a viewer and editor. The
image viewer should load instantly and handle multiple
instances gracefully, which rules out things like shotwell and
gthumb for me.<br>

As I discussed in IRC with Bruno yesterday, we aren't looking to
drop or replace Ristretto for now.<br>
<br>
As for what comes for image viewers/photo collection managers, I
don't think those are generally a suitable replacement for GIMP;
with them, you can't create new images or image compositions, only
edit/polish existing ones. That said, I would consider that ability
a requirement for the replacement for GIMP, if any are up for
consideration.<br>
<br>
