This page is devoted to GIMP (The GNU Image Manipulation Program) users and activists. GIMP is a free photo editing alternative to proprietary programs like Adobe® Photoshop® and is great for digital image composition, retouching, and authoring. Available on several operating systems including Unix, Windows, and Mac, additional information as well as the source code and binary files can be found at gimp.org[1].
Being free software, GIMP provides users something that Photoshop® and other proprietary software doesn't, and that is the source code. Having the source code available lets users know exactly what is "under the hood" and also allows them to modify the code under the terms of the GNU GPL v2.
