This book provides in-depth coverage of the graphics software GIMP, from installation to scripting and working faster and more efficiently through shortcuts. It also covers one of the most powerful aspects of GIMP: filters. The 'GIMP User's Manual' shows users how to create images invoking Cubism, Van Gogh, embossing, warping, rippling, glass tile, and fractals, and is packed with practical information. The book features a 32-page Colour Studio full of inspiring images you can create by learning all of the program's techniques demonstrated in the book.
The CD includes core GIMP software, plug-ins, and libraries that add file formats and effects to harness the power of this program. Written by two GIMP experts, this is the most comprehensive source of information available on this freely distributed image-manipulation program for the Open Source community.
