[QUOTE="mac57, post: 454852, member: 17052"] GIMP is a lot of things, but easy isn't one of them, I'm sorry to say. However, I am not picking on GIMP. I would say the same thing about its "big brother", Photoshop. GIMP, Photoshop and the like attack a complex area, and by necessity are complex solutions. I would strongly recommend GIMP - it is excellent - but get yourself one of the many good books available on its use and read up a bit. You will be rewarded for the time you invest. By the way, GIMP is an X11 based program, so you will need to install Apple X11 (it is on your OSX install DVD) before you try to run it. Then, startup X11, and then start up GIMP. Good luck!
