    What is Bloom?

    Bloom is a fast, light-weight, cross-platform procedural graphics editor that lets you tweak any action you have ever performed - organized by layer.

    Bloom is the first editor to allow true non-destructive editing. Every filter, effect, brush stroke or vector edit you apply is stored separately, and nothing is baked in. This allows you to come back to anything you've done in the past and adjust it - without redoing all of the subsequent work. Even brush strokes are editable after you've drawn them!

    Bloom is a purely 16-bit per channel application. Everything, including images, shape colors, masks, and any other color data is stored with 16 bits per channel. This means you never lose precision and color accuracy, allowing for the most vibrant and precise images to be created.

    In Bloom, everything is numerically adjustable - all the time, long after the initial effect has been applied. You can tweak and adjust every detail to your heart's delight until your creation is absolutely perfect.

    Sounds like a nice software, but it crashes when opening a file or trying to create a new image. I tested on Fedora, Antergos, OpenSuse and Mint, all with the same result. Disappointing.

    I wanted to give it another try today and aimed to download it (you have to tell them your name and email address, but okay, why not), but all I received was an Internal Server Error. Oh my!

    ...but crashes on my Fedora 25 Linux when I try to open a file. Maybe another day.
