Hello,
I'm looking for a Image processing software under Linux OS.
Thank you for your answers.

The problem with the GIMP and astro images is that the GIMP only uses 8
bits per channel. That can truncate a lot of bits. Cinepaint (
http://cinepaint.sf.net ) keeps full 16 bits (or even floating point)
resolution. It is meant more for the film industry, is still work in
progress, and doesn't have all the GIMP plug-ins ported yet (I ported
the FITS reader/writer) but might still be worth looking into.
