At the request of a member, here are some links for instructions for downloading and installing the GIMP Graphics package. This discusses a Windows application. Other versions are available. Follow these links to find the version suitable for your particular installation. GIMP download page here : http://www.gimp.org/downloads/Select the Windows Binary link : http://www.gimp.org/windows/Select Automated Installer : http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/Select Download Stable version : http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.htmlSelect Download : http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading...;use_mirror=umnMight need to also download the GTK softwares : http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading...;use_mirror=umnSave them on your computer somewhere you can find them. The Desktop works for me. It is a temporary location only. Double click the zip files. Your default extraction program will then unpack and begin the Installation. Follow the screens. I suggest you Install the Default version of everything to begin. There are tutorials available at http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/ and a Manual here : http://docs.gimp.org/en/Happy Grokking with the Gimp.

I've got a question about the GIMP English manual - Is it possible to get it so that you can check for help when you are offline? I've tried a couple of times, but I needed it to be online or else it wouldn't work.

you can download the manual here ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/help/ for offline usage, but the online version would most likely be the current one unless they update both of at hte same time.

Thanks, This is great. i used to use fireWorks i created my first sig with that ( Great times ) i posted that Look it up under the Show-off section of the GFXtrap section. That was my first ever sig.But as you might see i was told that The gimp was better than fireworks By Truefusion. He said that considering i used firworks it is great ( i didn't think it was much) And he also said something similar to:- You might consider using a better GFX creator like the gimpfor example He gave me a link to this topic i Went through everything you said and it is working great i shall pst my first sig created by GIMP in the near future. TTFN Hope to see you guys soon, In the near future lol

Hey Jim one more thing; How do you load brushes into the gimp like photoshop? I found some cool brushes I would like to load but I do not know how to load them! All the Gimp is, is a free version of Photoshop, but a LITTLE different.

[gimp] Guides: Imitating Slices

In the GIMP there's a feature known as a guide which is about as close as you can get to the

ImageReady to generate the HTML TABLE; last i checked), but it still helps when slicing an image

Gimp Abstract Signature Tutorial

In this tutorial I will be showing you how to make a abstract signature in GIMP. I have a lot of
images for this so bear with the loading time. First, you need to make a new image. I think
400x100px is a good signature size. I used these settings. You should have a blank white canvas.
We will start out our sig by brushing up a quick background. I came out with this: Next, we will
make a new layer. We will do more brushing on this layer. I used these settings: Start brushing
with a different brush set. I ended up with this: Select your first brushed layer, th...

How To Make Image Maps
- Using GIMP (4)
Like I said in my GIF tutorial , GIMP's as good as Photoshop (or even better) and it's
totally free, so.. obvious choice, really. The latest stable release is 2.2.7 or if you prefer to
live on the bleeding edge, you can get the 2.3.0 or 2.3.1 development releases from
http://gimp.org/ Windows users please take note that you have to install the GTK runtime
environment for it to function. You could get it from http://gimp.org/windows/ but I think I got
mine from sourceforge. OK so if you're all set now, you can start up GIMP and you're ready

How To Animate Gifs
- Using GIMP (6)
Right, first off, Photoshop costs a bomb, I don't have the cash, so it has to be GIMP. Anyways
from what I've heard, GIMP is about as good as Photoshop, and it's free. The latest stable
release is of GIMP is 2.2.6 and you can get it here . Points to note: GIF stands for Graphics
Interchange Format. It is limited to 256 colours only. Hence, it isn't a good idea to use this
format if you are working with high-resolution photos/images and want to keep them at that level. It
works better with illustrations. First, using GIMP, make all the layers of your ...
