For everyone who wants to follow English tutorials but their GIMP is in another language. It shows two ways of doing this, the second one allows you to use GIMP in two or more languages. (One at the time of course. :lol )

Very nice tutorial, Jolie. I watched it clear through. I won't be changing the language in my GIMP, but I wanted to see what you had.

It's very clear and easy to follow. Thanks for doing that.

I figured I'd post it here because I think this forum didn't have info on changing the language yet.

Unfortunately this is a real issue for people who are not English speaking. GIMP opens automatically in the same language as your operating system. If you want to follow an English tutorial it can become pretty confusing.
With GIMP 2.2 you could change the language in the menu of GTK+, but since 2.4 you don't need to install GTK+ separately. There is no GTK+ menu anymore so the option to change the language in the menu is gone.

I'm glad you posted it in here. It's a question asked by many and now we can refer them to this tutorial.

:tyspin
