For GIMP? No, and you need to Install Apple X11 as well, since it is an X11 based app. And even on a PPC based machine, GIMP isn't particularly speedy. And it is not all that simple to use either. It really IS like a free version of Photoshop, with all the attendant complexity. Don't get me wrong - I use both GIMP and Photoshop extensively and like both a lot, but neither is a simple drawing program. You may wish to go with other options per the threads you were directed to.
