Week 6 (3 of 3)


Last semester in one of my classes we downloaded a free distributed image editor called GIMP. Once you learn how to navigate and use GIMP, it is really enjoyable software to use for editing images. I used this software to make 3-d images as part of a class project, it allows a person who is not very artistic to become somewhat artistic relatively easy. Also it has tons of editing features which rival Photoshop and other editors, but it does not have the associated price tag. I would recommend this product to everyone in the class. Below please find the link to GIMP:


Their Website states:

With millions of users worldwide, GIMP has a huge community available for support, new free tools & plugins, and full support available across dozens of languages.

A comprehensive help library and full tutorial section has been built-in to the Gimpshop 2.8 workspace, so you are always just a couple of clicks away from step-by-step guidance on hundreds of photo and image editing techniques.

Invited to participate in Google's "Summer of Code 2012", GIMP has joined the ranks of other highly popular, bleeding-edge Open-Source development projects and has confirmed it's status as a world-wide leader in photo editing software.

And as an Open-Source program, GIMP is 100% FREE. Click the Download button and install the Latest Full Version of Gimpshop 2.8 in under a minute.

  1. Hi Tom,

    I have bookmarked GIMP and plan to give it a try. I usually end up editing my photos with Paint - so you know how limiting that is. I have used Photobucket to edit photos, which has more options than Paint. Thanks.

    Best regards,
    Robin
