Hi All

I'm new to Gimp having only downloaded it a few days ago, registered here hoping to learn more about it. At the moment it all seems a bit overwhelming so I'm sure I'll have a few stupid questions to ask shortly.

Cheers

Chris

:welcome Everyone here is quite helpful and nice. I too found Gimp overwhelming at first, but in time I learned (and still learning) how to use it.

Welcome to GC, ChrisM. Nice to have another member on board.

There is one other point to be made about that truth: Evil creatures cannot sing."

Welcome to Gimp chat ChrisM. I've only been using Gimp for a year and still learning new things in Gimp daily. My very first design in Gimp ever.
