do you have a little design sketch already? Some modelling would be a 
good thing for an application of this size. I'm really interested in 
kimageshop and would like to help, but before starting to code, we should 
have a little UML sketch or sth like that.

I already wrote down some ideas and relationships, when Matthias came up 
with the kimageshop idea, but it's far from complete and I have no idea 
of other people's design intentions.

Cheers,
Carsten Pfeiffer
