Gimp

[LLXerxes]

I have gimp installed on my computer.
I don't know HOW to use it.
i've read over the manuel twice and it teaches almost nothing.
I need help!
(one example, how do you open things?)

 

[Dell19]

You could try searching online for gimp help to see if there are some dedicated websites or a gimp forum...

http://www.google.com

 

[Dell19]

Or www.altavista.com

 

[MarineCorps]

Altavista is bad. People can pay to have their website appear first in the search resaults. Google is far better

 

[Dell19]

Altavista tends to be better for finding relevant images though when you do an image search...

 

[MarineCorps]

But he wasn't lookiing for images

 

[Dell19]

He might want to in the future... I just felt like advertising a different search engine for a change...

Yeah, google is far too much used, it's starting to become corrupt soon with almost a monopoly...


www.dogpile.com is also quite good and fast, but there is no image search. EDIT: sorry, my glitch in memory- - just checked and there is one. It even seems to work better results than google...


True, the image search in google is horrible, you always get useless pics that you don't want that are something totally different... altavista might be a lot better. Should start using that for images perhaps...

I have gotten pictures from CFC on google search several times.

 

[Ankka]

Huh? With what searchwords?


BTW, if you put 3CC Conquest there you'll see my SG or so...

I think world map. Cool. TF set the clocks right. That would explain why all the forums were marked as read when I had just posted three second before.

Dogpile is awesome! I have it as a plugin to firefox...

This used to be a thread about the legend that is the GIMP.

I've been using it for a few years now and consider myself pretty good with it. It's one of those things that require determination and an inquisitive mind to use since it doesn't have a proper manual and isn't even made for Windows originally.

But it IS free.

It's just like photo shop

Not really. It has many similar functions to Photoshop, but is still lacking in many areas. Plus GIMP is free, whereas Photoshop is expensive as ****.

I still prefer Photoshop anyhow.

 

[Dell19]

I have Photoshop and its proved to quite useful...

 

[Ankka]

If I had Photoshop, I'd be happy.


Just remembered I d/l:ed GIMP yesterday but forgot to install...

 

[MarineCorps]

Bah. Forget Photo shop. I prefer to use Paint Shop Pro 8. Very complicated.

If you'd actually ever used Photoshop you'd never utter such blasphemy.
