Very true. And ImageMajik can open more files than GIMP and Photoshop.

I mentioned Pshop because as an industry standard the training involved is
consistent across platforms.

Reason Number 2:
Photoshop has the patent on the 2x2/3x3/4x4 matrix dither anti-alias.
So when you do a rez/derez, it looks normal. Rather than aliased and pixelated.

But GIMP does splendid work.
