I hope this goes here.

Anyone here use GIMP? I have it and I know how to use it a bit but I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips and tricks for making a sig (otherwise I'll probably have a bad and wont use it

).

Ive never heard of it, what is it?

A free version of Photoshop but not as good.

Krebel · January 12, 2008, 03:21:06 AM

Oh alright, that reminds me of a Linux program. Is it a linux program?

Havick · January 12, 2008, 03:23:14 AM

Dunno, think it runs on all O.S's

Want me to PM you a keygen for Photoshop?

Krebel · January 12, 2008, 03:42:43 AM

Ok, I just seem to remember it being a program that came with Debian when I was using it. Im probably wrong, but I have no idea why thats bothering me so much.

Havick · January 12, 2008, 08:34:29 PM

w00p, you got any tips for a GIMP newbie, and can I come to you for help if I need it?

Arwym · January 13, 2008, 04:37:36 AM

You could just google it, get the address to the website, and there find everything you need.

But I'll help you.

It's not a free Photoshop. Photoshop is the professional standard of a "complete" image editing software. GIMP is that, a good image editor. Once you get used to it.

Enjoy!

Krebel · January 13, 2008, 04:45:24 AM

Hmm cool! Im going to have to go check it out as well.

Havick · January 14, 2008, 01:44:16 AM

I've seen the tut's but none are really any help.

Guess I'll just figure things out by myself.

Arwym · January 14, 2008, 05:30:01 PM

Well, they are supposed to teach you the basics. If you can't find what you are looking for at the main site, maybe you can try finding them somewhere else. There must be more tutorials for GIMP out there.

What are you trying to do, i could try and help.

Havick · January 14, 2008, 10:18:09 PM

Right now I'm trying top get fading effects but it isn't working so well

Krebel · January 15, 2008, 03:35:33 AM

I like using Idraw for fading.

Havick · January 15, 2008, 03:52:16 AM

Idraw? Never heard of it, is it any good?

Krebel · January 15, 2008, 04:30:28 AM
