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?

Maybe get in the habit of calling it by it's full name initially. Then it seems like an unfortunate acronym instead of a software made by perverts. Note I'm fairly certain most software is made by perverts, and I'm including myself in that group.

An app that tells you information about video files…just why?

In case you can’t quite see the icon.

I am one of those that will just use literal meaning names, like MediaInfo.
Here's one that I named: SubtitleAndReencodeWidget

Hahahaha.

I understand. Sometimes I too must admit I'm part of the group causing the problems.

We love our fucking acronyms
