True, I am not targeting the serious users of Photoshop here, but casual users who \
only use a smaller set of features which Photoshop offers but the with almost the \
same UX.

experiencing a real surge of interest right now, and I'm sure the developers would \
love to have you on board! Check out https://community.kde.org/Krita for more \
information. 

Yes, we are only 2 people, that is why I am looking out for contributors who can \
help. And as far as Krita goes, I do already have a patch into it. ;-D

Thanks
