Hello! I'm Sheelagh, from Wichita, Kansas! Excuse me, how very beauty pageant contestant-like introduction of me. I'm glad I found this help forum because I'm in the middle of a project and would appreciate any help I can get. I'm definitely a Linux/Gimp Newbie, my OS has the newest Bodhi Linux installed. The Gimp program I'm using is 2.8.0.

I'm a stay-at-home mom living with my partner and our son. I am currently working only part-time because someone has to take care of an 11-year old!

I hope to make new friends here and I'm looking forward to working on my project using Gimp! I guess...LOL!

Welcome asiangoddess,
Why gimp-2.8.0?
Doesn't Bodhi have 2.8.2 available?
Reason I ask is 2.8.0 is known to be buggy.

Part asian myself. A bit welcome to GIMPChat Sheelagh (may refer you to AG in the future since I'm not that good at remembering names).
