This is a project to create a feature complete clone of PhotoFiltre an awesome image editor only available on Microsoft Windows. I started this project a few years ago and have spent many hours working on an ALPHA version of this software. Although an ALPHA version is available now I feel that this project is not getting close to being finished quick enough. This is because im am working on this project on my own.
This project is really important to me as PhotoFiltre was my favourite image editor to use on Windows. Most of what I was doing was casual photo editing and PhotoFiltre does an amazing job of that!
With the money I plan to get PhotoFiltre LX developed further by Openismus a development company involved in Open Source software and Gtkmm experts.
My talent as a developer may not be that strong but nothing is stronger than my passion for this project! Please support me in this quest for great Linux software!
Note the following:
"1. RocketHub is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from me.
2. It's an All & More funding mechanism: if I don't reach my financial goal I get to keep what I raise. But if I do reach my goal, I get access to exciting opportunities."
