web-goddess: Mac Gimp

Friday, August 31, 2012

Woohoo! In case you missed my tweet, the GIMP is now available as a native Mac application. I downloaded and installed this morning, and I'm thrilled to report that it fixes every one of my complaints about the old version (which required X11). It looks nicer and more Mac-like; the shortcuts all use CMD instead of CTRL; and you don't have to click on each window to change focus. If you use GIMP on a Mac, I highly recommend installing this one.

For those who don't know, the GIMP is an Open Source image editing program. Basically, it's Photoshop but it's free instead of hundreds of dollars.
