hi all,
just to let you know, JPhotoBrush Pro 1.3
(http://www.jphotobrushpro.com) has been released and being a java
based program it runs in OS/2.

Note from the author:
"This is an Award Winning Multi-Platform Image
Editing/Enhancement/Retouch Application written in Java offering
various filters, effects and transformation with user friendly
interface. Offering a wide range of adjustment for most effects, you
will find many features not found on expensive commercial editors.
JPhotoBrush Pro, has been successfully tested in Windows
(9x/NT/2000/XP), Linux, OS/2, Mac machines .
The new version also includes a GIF Animation Wizard called
JPhotoAnim, Exif Support and a tool called JPhotoBatch which allow
batch processing like renaming / resizing (including generating
thumbnails) / format(file type) change of multiple image files in a
directory at the click of the mouse."

But I must warn you it is a bit resource hungry (like most Java
apps), so make sure you havea good CPU speed and RAM.
