Babygimp

Babygimp is an icon editor in Perl/Tk. Besides the usual drawing tools it has some features which seem to be unique among other icon editors: gradients, different drawing modes (e.g. semitransparent), warping images, color manipilations (e.g. enhancing color tones or sample colorizing), a clipboard. Furthermore Babygimp has some kind of plugin support, which means that it may be used as a frontend to console programs (e.g. ImageMagick or the Netpbm package). One may use these programs from the Babygimp gui as if they where builtin functions. The main program consists only of a single file, so no installation as root is required.
