Hi Dženan,

I am not familar with Qt either. For me everything will be new, so I have
to find a bettter technology and stick with it. Since there are so many
things in the image processing field, I am not able to decide on which one
to take. Hopefully I will find it in the coming days.

Thanks,
Santhosh.
