| Free GIMP image editor reaches version 2.0 |
|---|
The open-source community has released GIMP 2.0, a free software tool for image manipulation.
GIMP isn't new – it has been available for Linux and Unix systems since 1995, and was designed to fill the gap left by the lack of Photoshop for those platforms.
GIMP 2.0 has been in development for three years by a group of volunteers. Described by the group as the "most professional release of the GIMP ever", the developers add: "It is the first stable release that is officially supported not only on Unix-based operating systems, but also on Windows and OS X."
