Image editing Gimp

I only have an occasional reason to edit photos before getting prints. I'd always heard the the Gimp package was difficult to use, and in my Windows days I'd used a camera provided image editing package.

But now that's all gone with my move to Ubuntu so I tried Gimp. I have to say very impressed - it is extremely powerful - I'm only doing something very simple, but I got the task done easily.

A good example of open source packages not having to languish behind paid for or closed software.
