3.0 out of 5 stars Not Very Current, September 7, 2009

This review is from: GIMP User Manual: GNU Image Manipulation Program : Photo Retouching, Image Composition and Image Authoring (Paperback)
As far as it goes this large book full of tiny type and oddly worded English sentences is okay. But it doesn't address the mechanics of GIMP 2.6.7 and 2.6.7 which are the versions circulating in September 2009. Looks like 2.4 and 2007 is about where new content stopped in this edition published in 2009. So processes described as accomplishing some action or another may be different. I'm going back to the web for more information than I think I should have to for owning a thirty dollar book. It's your money. It was mine.

5.0 out of 5 stars All you need to know on GIMP in one book!, May 18, 2009
This review is from: GIMP User Manual: GNU Image Manipulation Program : Photo Retouching, Image Composition and Image Authoring (Paperback)
Very good reference manual - its all here in one book...what I liked the most is the fact that I don't have to buy two or three books to get my questions answered - EVERYTHING is here! Sure, its a big book, but its all there!!!

Finally I can use GIMP without going back to the internet to look up some 'how to' answer on some forum and waste hours trying to find out how to do something...I just look it up here, and presto, I can carry on.

If you use GIMP, GET THIS BOOK!!! You'll find it will answer any question you have and get your projects done faster and BETTER then trying to figure it out for yourself.

Well Recommended! (and cheap too!)

5.0 out of 5 stars GIMP User Manual, November 20, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: GIMP User Manual: GNU Image Manipulation Program : Photo Retouching, Image Composition and Image Authoring (Paperback)
I found this book comprehensive, clear and easy-to-follow.
Written by members of the GIMP development team, it may be
regarded as the "offical" GIMP manual.

Highly recommended for every level of user, from beginners
to experts.
