Overview
GIMP, as with most photo/image editing tools, involves a steep learning curve. Many tasks require a sound understanding of the principles involved and the techniques via which those are implemented
Also in common with other photo/image editing tools, GIMP files are very large, occupying
- up to 800 MB of RAM
- up to 200 MB of disk space per file
- or several times this for files that are used with Mac OS X
Advantages
- freely downloadable
- available for Linux Mac OS X & Windows
- supports many export/import formats
Disadvantages
- less capablility in some functions, than expensive, commerical alternatives
