Open source image editing application GIMP has always been free, but the work required to continue building and improving the software doesn't come without cost. In a recent post, the team asks GIMP's users to lend financial support to the man behind the Generic Graphics Library (GEGL) and 42% of its commits.

Kol Thanks to this work, in part, GIMP 2. 10 will offer numerous notable features including the previously announced 16-bit and 32-bit color channel processing. However, some requested features are still missing, including CMYK and spot colors support, additional filters, better GPU usage and more.

To help get the ball rolling on those features and others like them, GIMP is pointing users toward a Patreon page for Kol Thus far 186 patrons have lended a total of $793/month support for Kol
