The GIMP - Free Photo Editing Software

Couldn't find enough spare change in your sofa to buy Photoshop? FEAR NOT!

Introducing "The Gimp"

GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.

It has many capabilities. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an online batch processing system, a mass production image renderer, an image format converter, etc.

One of the best parts about GIMP is the fact it is expandable and extensible. It has a ton of community support and a long list of plug-ins and extensions that can do just about anything you could ever want to do with Photoshop. But for free.

GIMP is written and developed under X11 on UNIX platforms and also runs on MS Windows and Mac OS X.

We mentioned it's free right?
