Gimpshop

Open Source by Scot Moschella

GIMPshop is essentially Gimp with some cosmetic changes. The Gimp’s menu structure and naming conventions had been a constant source of frustration for me because I was so used to Photoshop.

    I could work on Vista business 64 bit only briefly stable with GimpShop. GimpShop crashed after a few minutes. Moreover, I miss rectangles or circles for insertion in a loaded picture. I think, one must still wait, until this promising application becomes more mature. I have not found a German-speaking user interface like with GIMP. Available plugins (e.g. for tools as rectangles oder german interface) cannot be found easyly from inside the application or in the web. It is not clear, which GIMP plugin you can use with GIMPshop.
