Would you like to be able to use your Google/Yahoo/MSN (OpenID) login on gimpusers, too?

Definately! I would enjoy the possibility to use my OpenID on different websites!

I don't have a special need for OpenID but I think it could be useful

Doesn't matter to me

Never, OpenID is a pain regarding privacy and personal data protection!

No. (please post a comment)

    By the way I've just installed GIMP 2.6.2 in Windows and I've noticed some changes in how GIMP manages the windows (tools, main and layers) it seems that the main window is always behind the tools and layers windows. I think the main window should be at the top always, so I hope that could be fixed.

    no, thats not a bug - its a feature. you can simply hide/unhide the toolboxes by usign the TAB-key.

    Which operating system do you use? Why don't you just go to "Downloads" and download GIMP 2.6.2
