Hi Barry
I used it a while back, when trying it out for making negatives.
For a "freebie" it's pretty good, though I am so used to Photoshop, know all the shortcuts, menues etc, so I do prefer Photoshop. But, as I said, the Gimp will do a lot of stuff that Photoshop does.
You can see by the tutorials what you can do:

With all the discussion about CS4 -- has anyone tried Gimp?

GIMP is the open source freebie available for free at

Just curious if anyone has reviewed it and what are the pros and cons.
