“Reviews

After first download of GIMP for Windows, it took two days and it
was my default image editor and creator. Using GIMP together with
Dogwaffle for some paint/draw effects and IrfanView just for snap
viewing – give a freeware tool which maybe don’t give all one may
want – but most likely all you need…”

“The GIMP is an awesome program, but it was originally written
only for Linux/Unix. My thanks goes out to Tor Lillqvist for
taking the time to port it to Win32! This program does probably 99%
of what Adobe Photoshop (Retail: something like US$600) does, but
for free! Although slightly buggy, it works great.”
