  • Pros

    • GIMP is a free image editing program with professional features, which means you can create and edit images without spending anything.
    • Its user-friendly interface and wide range of editing functions make it a reliable tool for graphic design tasks.
    • It offers improved performance compared to previous versions and supports different file formats, making it versatile and efficient.
    • The latest version comes with new features and improvements such as support for ASE and ACB palettes, FG to Transparent gradient, quick pattern generation, non-square ratio support for GIFs, etc., that enhance the user's editing experience.
    • Being open-source software, GIMP is easily expandable with various extensions and plugins according to your needs.

  • Cons

    • Photoshop isn't compatible with GIMP or XCF files.
    • Even though its interface is user-friendly and simple to navigate initially, newcomers might find some aspects challenging because of its extensive feature set.
    • While it supports various file formats like RAW, JPEG or PSD files automatically detected by the program when imported; any incompatibility might lead to work disruptions.
    • In spite of recent improvements in formatting behavior while selecting and changing text on canvas in newer versions; users may still encounter challenges if these enhancements aren’t enough for their specific requirements.
    • The community driven aspect can sometimes be a disadvantage if an essential plugin isn't maintained anymore leading to outdated or unsupported functionality over time.
