    Hey everyone. Its me BonslyGuy. I need assistance. Does anyone know of a very good tutorial about the main buttons and functions of GIMP? Not how to make graphics just yet? Can anyone find or know of a good tut that has this information? Or would be willing to write one themselves? I would really appreciate it and gladly accept any help given. I've been to GIMP tutorials onine but they didn't help much.

    Thanks so much

    Here is a very nice tutorial covering the basics of GIMP.

    If you want a signature tutorial, there are many excellent tutorials at GimpTalk. I remember curly haired boy's tutorials helping me a lot.

    I actually made a signature tutorial a long time ago. I tried to make it as thorough as possible for people just starting out with GIMP, but whatever =P

    If you "just get photoshop," you'll have to start the trial. No one would want to spend all that money just on one Adobe product. Besides, GIMP is totally free.

    Well, firstly, you'd need to download a program like utorrent. Utorrent is what you use to download the torrents and you can find the torrents on quite a few different sites. Isohunt.com is the best, in my opinion.

    GIMP is Photoshop, except it's free. They have a different layout and PS has a few more random features, but they're essentially the same thing. GIMP might even be a bit more user-friendly.

    Don't talk about things you know nothing about, man.

    GIMP and Photoshop or pretty much the same thing exepct with a different interface. But it just comes down to a matter of preference I guess. I like GIMP a lot despite not being that good at it. It doesn't have a huge learning curve, and all it takes is some practice and you will be able to make some decent looking signatures and such. But again it just comes down to a matter of preference.

    I just downloaded some new brushes for GIMP so those should help.
