Version: The GIMP 2.2.13
"powerful yet at a free price."
Pros: a extremely powerful image editor. with layer and vast range of graphic format support, over 100 built-in filter effects(special effects), image coverting, all the basic tools like cropping, rotate/flip, pencil, brush, etc. to more professional tools like magic wand, blur/sharp and much much more. but that's just the start, buried deeply in this applications menu and floating tool bars is a dozen of expert sets of configuration tools to fix/retouch even the best of all images. it can make professional looking 3D images or animations in just minutes under a master users hand. it is truly the most powerful imaging program amongest photoshop and other heavily priced products.
Cons: the only thing about this application people are complaining about is it's not aimed for novices. average computer user would find this program very hard to use due to the lack of friendly interface, too advanced/complex features and no built-in tutorial or help files. paint.net is a very good alternative to gimp for the ease of use and just enought feature for standare users.
