GIMP’s Future After GIMP 3.0: Upcoming Features, $2 Million Funding

Now that GIMP 3.0 has been released, what can we expect in the future for the GIMP project? In this video, I discuss news around GIMP development, including features expected in GIMP 3.2 like smart objects and vector layers! Plus, I discuss other exciting features on GIMP’s radar like a vector Shape tool, full CMYK support, animation features, a built-in “inpainting” tool (from the Resynthesizer plug), and more!

Additionally, I cover a Libre Arts article that discusses GIMP’s approx. $2 million in Bitcoin, which it began liquidating for cash through the Gnome Foundation. Will GIMP start hiring paid developers to implement awesome new features?
