I like the splash screens too. But they're also not professional. If I'm showing something to the big boss, and the first thing they see is an anime splash screen, he's going to look at me funny.

GIMP I don't have that problem. Yeah I 'could' mess with custom shortcuts for all of our devices, but why (also irrelevant since we're all OSX)? GIMP serves well enough and it's one other thing I don't have to do.

Of course, other people complain their boss cannot handle the name "gimp" because it's unprofessional.

In any case, I've given you a solution. And, of course, it's not something you have to do on all the devices, you download Krita's portable zip file version, if using Windows, adapt the .lnk file one, and then roll out the update by creating a new Windows image with the modified version of Krita.

At least, that's how professional organization handle OS and application provisioning.

I think I have two reasons not to roll Krita now. Thank you for your time.

I am sorry for you, you have a boss who judges book by its cover. Well you can always call him after the program is started and show him how it works :) that may change his mind if he is really wanting to change it that is.
