GIMP- the perfect photoshop alternative

GIMP is a free image editing software that gives the proprietory Photoshop a good run. In almost all aspects of editing images, it is as good as Photoshop. I have been touching and improving upon photos with this great software for ages. There are some very minor compartments where Photoshop is still better but these are seldom required even by professional photo editors.
GIMP has recently come out with its 2.8 version. It is superb, but has some bugs. You can go for the sturdy and highly functional version 2.6.
What is more, GIMP has a huge fan following and you can get support from these GIMP users. There is also an exhaustive tutorial. There are thousands of sites talking about tips and tricks that can be done through GIMP.
If you have questions about GIMP, you can send them as comments to this post. I will try to help or guide you to the right source.
