Can't do GIMP

[user 22118]

I still can't figure it out...tough, I will work on it. The youtube explainations are ok, the ones on the website are essentially letting you know why you are an idiot for using windows and not linux. I have settled on only learning it via my work computer otherwise I might throw my laptop at home.

I know, us Linux users can be a pain in the ass sometimes. Keep plugging at it--we can try to help!

I might put together a little trash tutorial on the very basics, though it seems that Maveric would be much better at it.

I think you can ask Marcellus about him.

I tried to get used to GIMP while using Linux, since Photoshop won't work in Linux, but I just couldn't do it and went back to Vista and PS. The only reason I don't primarily use Linux is because the lack of support for Adobe Products, mainly Flash and Photoshop. They don't work with Wine or the commercial equivalent.

I haven't read all of this thread but have you all looked at some GIMP tutorials? Simply by doing a Google search with "GIMP tutorials" loads of sites come up. Deviantart.com has some GIMP resources and tutorials as well. Just by following tutorials you will learn different concepts and how to do certain things.
