GIMP

4:48 PM Posted by Unknown

That would be the GNU image manipulation program. It is a free graphics/photo program I am trying to learn (for all of one day so far lol). I figure if I can master this "maybe" dh will buy me Photo Shop someday.

My mom uses Paint Shop Pro, I think I really should of paid attention when she was using that and learned a thing or two. But then again she was a graphics artist in her former life.

So far I am not getting very far with it. Either I am stupid or just not far enough in to "get" how to do it. I would like to start/learn how to do web page/blog designs and such. Also learn code and everything that goes along with it. I feel like I am not understanding the online tutorial for the program however.

There are a few books at the book store I can get but I am not sure if they would tell or explain more then the online tutorial. I may go and look and see what they have and how it compares to what I have read so far online. Besides it is hard reading the online tutorial and switching from that to the GIMP program and back and forth.

Wish me luck!!

    I've used GIMP before. It's really easy once you get it. If your mom uses PSP, she'll be able to figure it out quickly. . . and then pass along tips to you!

    Good Luck! I'm sure you will get the hang of it. I just downloaded paint.net and am trying to figure it out. Maybe once I figure it out I will invest in something better.
