Hey, folks. Can someone with the deepfreeze password install GIMP on the left-side computer in Creative Arts? Thanks!

No problem, Sean (@zootboy)…
It’s an excellent program, open source, and free ~ w00t!
I’ll install it on both the next time I’m there ~ if someone else doesn’t do it before then.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Super! Thanks a bunch.

I took care of this last night. Both PCs in the Arts Room now have GIMP installed.

Thanks a bunch! Gotta love free software.

For those that are more familiar with Photoshop perhaps you would like this instead.

Interesting history on “GIMPshop”. From the wikipedia page and quotes from the original author:

In a March 2014 discussion,[9] Moschella states:
I originally created Gimpshop, but I’m not the jerk who owns that domain and added adware & spyware to the source. Sorry about that. I hate that this guy is out there making my fun little project into an abomination.
….
I don’t have a project site for it. I became discouraged after this whole ordeal and I let it slip away into obscurity. …. Gimpshop was a fun little ‘prank’ that got bigger than I ever expected. Sad what it has become, though.

Whoa. I haven’t followed the project in a while. It was recommended back in
the day.
