Honest to gods, this conversation happened today, and it may have cost me a job opportunity. The customer was super impressed with my menu design and animation, and wanted to know who we got it from. When I said I did it, their face lit up! Too bad as soon as i said GIMP, they weren’t interested anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you say in similar situations?

    Imagine if you had to say you’re the sole programmer responsible for Nesticle! Or that your blog is full of texticles

    I’m not sure saying “I used the GNU Image Manipulation Program” would’ve sounded better, probably would.

      I’ll settle with GNUIMP, or gnooymp.

      Nesticle sounds like a bait term similar to ligma.
