Last days in Paris

I'm enjoying my last days in Paris. It's been a great time, apart from a week and a half of combating the local microflora. I've seen a lot, read a lot, hacked a lot, and met some fun and interesting new people.

Unfortunately, I forgot my camera back home, so the only snapshotting companion has been my trusty W810i. I'll see if I can't find a bit of time to post-process the snaps and put them in the gallery. I've been putting this off as there are no decent programs on Linux for doing simple photo editing, at least that I found. Blimp seems to fit the bill with respect to simple, but its user interface is rather cumbersome. F-spot is a mess that crashes all the time. The Gimp also has a totally useless interface. I guess I'm looking for something like iPhoto, only free and full of open-source goodness.

Also, having to use the web interface for uploading pictures to our gallery is extremely cumbersome. I suppose I should check if we can't get WebDAV working. But, then again, it would save me even more time if I just put all of this on Flickr (or similar)....
