  1. Nice gimp tips. thanks..

  2. Thanks for this valuable post. I love gimp.

  3. Gimp is a great tool, but the latest version (they get updaetd so soon) or the one which i had is 2.6 and its missing the xtns. There was a feature to automate batch tasks like we do in photoshop.
    It doesnt come default with the 2.6 version, still trying to get hold of the gimp-batch plugin for fedora 12.
