Special focus – RE:WIRE

Libre Graphics Meeting 2026 in Nuremberg invites designers, developers, artists, and activists to RE:WIRE the tools, infrastructures, and communities of Free/Libre graphics: reconnecting broken circuits between code and craft, reconfiguring workflows beyond proprietary platforms, and weaving new, resilient networks of collaboration that re-route power, knowledge, and imagination.

These last few days, I've looked a lot at various issues for graphics tablets on Linux, which made me have very informative discussions with @whot. 💬

There is quite some data to digest, but that could lead to interesting enhancements in graphics tablet configuration after @GIMP 3.2 is released… 🤔

Thanks for all the great answers to my naive questions! 🤗

libinput 1.29 will support remapping of eraser buttons on tablet tools. Happy times.

I've been using the open source image processing tool, GIMP, as part of my work for many years 👍

So it was an honour to be asked to create a splash screen for the latest version release candidate, GIMP-3.2RC1 🙇‍♂️

Thanks to Jehan, GIMP project maintainer, & David Tschumperlé, project manager for the G'MIC plugins, for the conversations that led to the invitation 👏

And yes, the main release GIMP-3.2 will feature another of my JWST images (you can probably guess which 😉).

While reading the PSD specification, I saw that GIMP already has code to support importing several types of Adjustment Layers.
I did a quick test with connecting the Threshold, Posterize, and Invert code to our PSD plug-in, and it seemed to work well!

Hue/Saturation, Levels, and Curves should also be easy enough to add support for, since we already support PSD presets for those filters.

Save the date: 2026-04-22 to 2026-04-25 LGM 2026 Nuremberg, Germany

Hello everyone,

we have a fixed venue and date for LGM 2026 in Nuremberg, Germany:

Wednesday, April 22nd to Saturday, April 25th, 2026. The event will be hosted at Zollhof (https://zollhof.de/).

We are now preparing the call for participation and the website, and will let you know about any updates.

Here's a heads-up: this time of the year is super busy for everyone, hence, we plan to make a soft start of the communication (website, call for participation, etc.) and launch the visual design of the edition a bit later in the process. But for now, it's important that you start sharing the date and mark it in your calendars!

Cheers, Lasse
