The only one or two I can think of, and the reason I don't use it, are 
no 'curves' to alter the slope of the gamma of photos, and no way to 
connect to a local printer. Now, I could be wrong about these, but that 
is the I remember Cinepaint. Oh, the interface reminds me of the '90s 
Linux stuff. The whole thing would take commitment to learn from that of 
most other newer designs.
