Gimp

Why bother paying for photoshop or other expensive programs when this program is out there for free? This program works along the same lines as photoshop, though as an open-source program, it's far more customizable. What I find most attractive is the floating window screen set up. Tools are set up in "bays" instead of locked in toolbars, or cluttering the screen with dozens of separate windows. This allows for the window showing the picture in progress to fill more of the screen. It also makes it easy to find favorite tools, and hide away things you don't need. Installtion was simple and bug-free. There are no surprises in this ...  Read the complete review

Gimp is a free photo-editing tool similar to Photoshop, which can be used for anything from simple red-eye reduction, cropping and image size or file format changing to full professional photo retouching. GIMP is an acronym for "GNU Image Manipulation Program" and was written for UNIX or Linux computers, but now is also available for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. I would like to reiterate the word "free". This software is downloadable legally for free and has been developed and supported by the users of the program as part of the "GNU Project". I won't go into the history of this, but the philosophy behind the project is that "people ...  Read the complete review

The GNU Image Manipulation Program is an Open Source graphics package of the first order. It is available on a wide range of operating systems (not just Linux but also Windows & Mac) and is FREE to install and use. In the case of the GIMP, free does not mean shoddy or limited. While I've not made enough use of Adobe Photoshop to do a feature by feature comparison, I've not found any compelling reason to look for an alternative to the GIMP in the past three or so years that I've been using it. In fact, I'm still learning new tricks to enhance the graphical work I've been doing. Most of that work has been web-based, both personal and ...  Read the complete review

Gimp is a free image program for Linux systems. GNU Image Manipulation Program (Gimp) is the premier Image editing and painting software available for Linux under the GPL open source licence. When Gimp opens, it starts off in two or three separate boxes or windows, scattered freely across the desktop, not tied to within one overall window as many ‘Microsoft Windows’ applications are. The amount of boxes at start-up varies in slightly newer and slightly older versions. One box contains the usual tools, zoom, crop, resize image, perspectives, fill, draw, paintbrushes etc, another has a list of layers, colour channels and paths. An image will ...  Read the complete review

GIMP stands for General Image Manipulation Program or GNU Image Manipulation Program, it's a free software that you can use to enhance, edit or play with your pictures. It's like an Adobe Photoshop thing but it's cheaper of course and I think there's much more difference in terms of sophistication and application. Just type the word GIMP and click the link where you can download the program and it's done, small size program 84.96MB. It has so many versions now because of some adjustment or enhancement to make the program much easier to use. Right now I got the 2.6 version, which is I think is the latest version and this version is less complicated than the other ...  Read the complete review
