Version: GIMP 2.6.6
"A great program and it's free."
Pros: Lot of good features. I'm new to the program and trying to learn how to use GIMP. Manual instructions could be better explaining tools.

Summary: Overall GIMP is a very good challenge to learn. I like challenges so....I'm carrying on..... read more

Summary: I guess if I keep reading everything about how to use GIMP, I may learn it in time and learn to love it, but right now I am so frustrated with it. (And I do have a college degree!) Even tech support sites I belong to have a hard time trying to expla... read more
