Version: The GIMP 2.4
Pros: I'm not a great one for picture editing and just to the basics, so don't want to spend a lot of money on software I don't use much.
Lots of choices, which can be confusing.
This works fine and doesn't hog the system.
My favorite picture editor.
Cons: Some of the buttons layout confuses me. Not sure if that is me not having patience though.
Sometimes, I think I need a better explanation of what all the tasks available are.

"I THINK this is an outstanding application"
Pros: Very capable application with many wonderful features. Newest version has a somewhat better interface.
Cons: Very hard to learn and to figure out what all features are available to the user and how to utilize them. Too complicated for the layman user.

"Some long awaited cool features."
Pros: Overall, I like what I see. Color management is a long awaited feature that I'm very happy is present with the GIMP. SIOX too.
Cons: A lot of my Script-fus didn't work with 2.4 (arghhh). Fortunately, I know the author for many of them and he personally passed on the fix to me (thanks Mark). Still could have done a better job at backwards compatibility. Also, though it is seldom used, my GIMP Texturizer filter doesn't work either. Hopefully patches to the Script-fus and updates to the plugins are soon to pass. Had to figure out the new UI (radical changes; trust me). I think the new organization will grow on me, but now it's an anoyance for sure.

Pros: I am new to image editors of this power, but it seems to have everything I would have use for.
Cons: Tutorials and help - hard to find your way
