GIMP - 2.6.8p2
What's new in this version:
fixed the sort order bug in the filechooser on SL systems. :-) Patch is reported to upstream GLIB.
re-added the twain plugin. I removed this because it didn't work on my system, running 64 bit SL. But the reason was, that the twain driver of my scanner (Canon 4400F) still is 32 bit only. If your twain driver is 64 bit, the twain plugin will work. For Canon users there is the macfile-gimp plugin which now uses Image Capture to get access to scanners and digital cameras. If you select GIMP as the app to which Image Capture will send its images, this should work on Canon scanners too, since Image Capture supports Canon scanners.
added the dds plguing to load and save dds files.
added wavelet denoise plugin. This gives very good results because you can adust each componet (r,g,b or Y, Cb, Cr) separately and it's really very fast. Now there are two noise reduction plugins: GREYCstoration and wavelet-denoise.
Requirements:
Mac OS X 10.6 or later.
