Hi, I've noticed a lot of people use Gimp or whatever that program is called. And I just want to ask a few things.
1. Where can I download it?
2. Is the download free?
3. Is it really complicated, or pretty simple?
Okay, that's all. ^.^ I just wanted to know because I was thinking of downloading it and using it. I don't really like MS Paint, it's irritating because of all the pixelized stuff. And when I don't have much time to work on a drawing, I save it and forget to chose the bitmap option and it ruins the whole entire thing. So just please answer the questions and that'll be really helpful. ^.^

Keep in mind when you want to download files save them as Jpeg.

1. There's a link in one of the posts above.
2. Yes it is.
3. I'd say pretty simple. I haven't had any problems with it. Heck, you can even make animations with the Gimp.

GIMp is good, but I prefer to use Photoshop when making art. It's quite powerful, but it's 600$ something so.. whee


At school I'm not allowed to use Photoshop... Unfair, everyone uses GIMP. But that'sa nother story stare
