|
|
Hey all
I just downloaded Gimp and I'm having issues with it. Major issues. I cant seem to figure it out. I found a couple of tutorials that are useless to me. Does anyone have it or at least know how to use it? I don't want to do anything fancy, just fan art, banners and avatars, etc
Thanks!
kat

Pick your poison. If any of those work, there you go. Most of the menus should be similar-ish to Photoshop or Paintshop Pro, anyway. _________________ I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. His hair was perfect.

Assuming you have a Windows machine: Link.
You want 3 things off that page, installed in this order:
- GTK Runtime, if you don't have it already (you probably don't)
- GIMP for Windows: Stable version
- Helpfiles
As I told Kat over IM, the learning curve is slightly steep, but don't be afraid of it and you'll at least be able to do a few simple things before the day is out. If you've worked with Photoshop or Paintshop Pro before, you'll find this fairly similar. _________________ I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. His hair was perfect.
