Tony CooperI replied to the OP and I pointed out that the UFRaw settings that were displayed looked a bit off to me, and one in particular (WB) was suspicious. I told the OP to make some adjustments to get (closer) to a baseline position. Since I no longer have the Gimp (or Linux) installed, I didn't take it further to test the settings that he had.
It seems that only Floyd has kept the original poster's question in mind. The poster didn't ask what OS or what software would be an improvement on what he has. He asked what can be done to work with what he has.
Floyd - presumably - did a good job in answering this. I say "presumably" because I use neither Linux nor Gimp and don't know how practical Floyd's response was.
It's too bad that questions like the original poster's get diverted into battles over OS and software with the same old points being rehashed over-and-over. Nothing new was brought up.
He did not reply to that - so I wonder:
1) Were we trolled? (Again).
2) Who's the troll? (And I have my suspicions).
