DESCRIPTION
Gimp is a self contained appication bundle of the GNU Image Manipulation Program for Mac OS X. Gimp.app is droppable, uses the gimp-print package built into OS X, and uses the system's default web browser for help and web browsing requests.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.6.7:
- Updates:
- Gimp 2.6.7
- update most libraries (BABL, GEGL, gtk, pango, cairo and others)
- the noise reduction plugin GREYCstoration is now able to work on croma and luma channels separately
- Changes:
- now GIMP uses a smaller font size for it's menus because there were many complaints about the previous font size setting. Of course, you can set any value you like, by editing the file "Libray/Application Support/Gimp/gtkrc" in your home directory.
- New plugin:
- Resynthesizer: Given a sample of a texture, Resynthesizer generates more of that texture. The most surprinsing usage is to remove objects from images and replace them with the surrounding background texture.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.5 or later
Apple's X11

PIZZACAKE I can confirm Gimp now has Wacom Tablet support with latest X11! In Gimp go to edit>preferences>input devices>configure extended input devices Select device pen, set mode to screen and save. Your Wacom tablet should be working!

APEMAN Hold off downloading 2.6.7 or just move 2.6.6. 2.6.7 took over my screen. There were no menus, and the placeholder window was enormous. I couldn't resize it. It has white text on it but was so large I couldn't figure out what it was. It brought my Mini to a halt. I am running it on a 2gig Intel Mini 1gig RAM. Now I don't have GIMP installed. Oh well. Will download when this issue is addressed.

APEMAN The version down the page that doesn't need X11 works. It's still a work in progress, but it works.

LELE its setting the font size to 936. edit the file gtkrc within /Library/Application Support/Gimp and you'll get everything back to normal

RON BELL LELE is right. Quit GIMP then edit "Library/Application Support/Gimp/gtkrc" in your home directory and change "gtk-font-name" to something like Lucida Grande 12, instead of 936. Then relaunch GIMP.

APEMAN OK, I got 2.6/6 reinstalled and it is working. I will give it a try in the morning. Thanks. I will let you know if it screws up again.

TELECOMM I can also confirm the suggestions above, go to ~/Library/Application Support/Gimp and open the file gtkrc with TextEdit. Change the last line to somethint like gtk-font-name = "Lucida Grande 9.8" and things will be usable again.

ANITARAJ Found out that you need to install latest X11 update - 2.3.2.1, Gimp works well after updating this. | |

ANITARAJ Unable to open in 10.5.6. Sad to see this is not tested. Like the previous commenter, would be nice if it run on it's own with default Mac menus.

NEONBLUE2 Do you have the latest XQuartz installed? Because it does work on 10.5.x if you fulfil the system requirements (which aren't actually on this page).

DAYCARE doesn't run under a standard 10.5.6 installation. Maybe its' a problem with the current version of Apple's X-Windows version - but I don't care. If it won't run under my standard installation, I will not use it (got some other X11-app's here that work fine) Would be so cool if there would be a version of gimp that just behaves like a 'normal' OSX application :-(

UMAROMC Check out the website for more info... apparently it requires a version of X11 that's NEWER than Apple's supplied X11.

DAYCARE Yes, the ReadMe mentions this too - but since I NEED X11 for some communication tools for my work, I just don't like to touch that installation :-(

NEONBLUE2 XQuartz is a lot better than the broken mess that shipped with Leopard. Try it out and if you don't like it then just reapply the latest Mac OS X update. Technically Apple have been updating X11 allow with the system, it's just that they don't keep up with every release. Now if you want a native Gimp, have you checked the link under "Related Links"?

ARVIDTP WARNING TO NEW USERS: 2.4.5r2 is NOT the stable version of Gimp. There are still some problems with this version. Most people would be better served by the official version that still runs under X11. BTW - I cannot type anything into the save dialog box in this version to name the file I am going to save - the keyboard types through to the other windows and chooses tools instead of naming the file.

IINDIGO Gimp disappoints me. It really does have a lot of potential, but unfortunately due to its X11-based GUI, it's unintuitive and incredibly ugly - the best way of describing it is that someone tied Gimp to the back of the ugly truck with an ugly rope and dragged it ugly street for 10 ugly miles. Being an open source project isn't enough of an excuse for it being that way. The likes of Firefox, Camino, and Adium have proven that quite well.

SVOOP If you don't want to click twice all the time (first to focus the window, second e.g. to select a tool), open a terminal and issue the following command: defaults write org.x.x11 FocusFollowsMouse -string YES
