no, but i've heard nothing but complaints because the ui changed

gimp is not photoshop, although a lot of the main-line ps tutorials work on 
it; gimp2 will pound ps into the dust, and do movies well also, but it is not 
here.

afaik, there is no linux quark equivalent in the offing.

another port i'd like to see is an artistic program called something bland 
like `pc-paint' which started as mac but has had a win port for a long time. 
it let you do proper crumbly charcoal effects, had some idea of how `wet' 
your ink was, and so on.
