In the GIMP there's a feature known as a guide which is about as close as you can get to the way Photoshop slices an image. You may not be able to generate an HTML TABLE out of the guides (don't even attempt to via "Save As"  —not good) like with slices in ImageReady (Photoshop uses ImageReady to generate the HTML TABLE; last i checked), but it still helps when slicing an image GIMP style. Note: I'm using the development version of the GIMP (version 2.3.18), so the location for the guides tool may not be the same. I've made a quickie template just for this tutorial. This tutorial will be quick, straight-forward and simple. After making a template for yourself, select the rectangular marquee tool. Make a selection on a section of your template like so: FIgure 1Then go to Image > Guides > New Guide from Selection. Repeat the process until you have filled the template with guides: Figure 2Now you can select an area with ease: Figure 3And Edit > Copy Visible, then File > New, then Edit > Paste (you may have to make a new layer for the float) and save as an image:

Yeahh! Thanks true I've been waiting for this! Now that I got photoshop I can do more, but that is always good to know just in case it gets lost! Short and sweet, but it gets to the point!

If you slice an image in Photoshop, and then open up the PSD in the GIMP, you'll notice that the slices are now guides. Just a little side note.

I love GIMP. It has many capabilities. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program. It makes I not think about photoshop.

Gimp Abstract Signature Tutorial
Brushes required (9) 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....

the image (render) down a bit if it covers too much room. Make sure this first layer....

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 ....
