Why did I download GIMP 2.8 ?


I have always admired GIMP for the fact that it competes with the well-established and widely used Image editing tools like Photoshop despite being a freely distributed program.





I use GIMP often and I always found the multi-window mode difficult to handle. Now I am happy to finally see a single-window option in GIMP.

Here are the top three features which I like in GIMP 2.8:

1.            Single window interface – option to switch.
2.            Grouping for the layer.
3.            Enhanced Text Editing.
