Topic: Handy Tweaks To Make GIMP Replace Photoshop

[sam]

I like gimp but I still love photoshop - some of these tips are quite useful and will probably finally drag me away from photoshop and my mac.

GIMP is the favorite graphics editing program of many designers and graphic artists. It is free and compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux (the two big reasons for its popularity). It has a wide array of features, as well as plug-ins, filters and brushes. Documentation is primarily available in online communities, as well as through extensive add-ons.
