Starting with GIMP

pvdesigns , ,

Hello Everyone

i’m going to talk about GIMP as i find this lesson is the most important part of the course … so this must be the beginning line

http://en.onsoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/gimp-logo-blog-1.png

About GIMP:
GIMP is an acronym for “GNU Image Manipulation Program” … but that doesn’t mean that it’s working on GNU-Linux only …. it’s working on Unix (Linux, FreeBSD & Sun Solaris), Mac OS, Windows

if you were using Adobe Photoshop … i’m sure that GIMP would be a good Open Source Alternative as they work with the same tools and features … except small difference in Filters and Brushes.

you can visit the GIMP site and see the features

Why GIMP?!

The Main Advantages of GIMP are:

  • Easy to work with … as it supports many features that are important for Designers
  • Open Source …. anybody can do whatever he wants in the source code
  • Free Of Charge … no more bothering with Serials or Cracks … and i think the Super Advantage that it can’t be Stolen! :lol: :lol:
  • as there are no such a program in GNU/Linux Supports such Features …. the GIMP is still the best and the most powerful program in Linux Systems

GIMP History:

at July 1995 … Peter Mattis sent a message to some groups to tell them that he want to make a program similar to photoshop and he described how he can make it

Two weeks later … Peter Mattis Sent another message to some groups and asked them two Questions:

Suppose someone decided to write a graphical image manipulation program
(akin to photoshop). Out of curiousity (and maybe something else), I have a
few (2) questions:

What kind of features should it have? (tools, selections, filters, etc.)
What file formats should it support? (jpeg, gif, tiff, etc.)

at November 1995 … the first beta release was available as “General Image Manipulation Program”
now known as “GIMP”

but when Released GIMP 1.0.0 … the name changed to “GNU Image Manipulation Program”

till now … they reached to GIMP 2.5.1 Unstable Release which was released just two days later
Here they are working towards the next stable release, which will be GIMP 2.6.

i don’t want to talk much about GIMP History, so if you are interested in reading it, you can just enter this link
