GIMP - the premium freeware image editing software



The best image editing and photo retouching software that remained free is the powerful GIMP.

It is my favourite image editor. In fact, I like it more than Photoshop, which is the industrial champion. Granted, not everyone like to use GIMP. But I may say, once you get the hang of it, GIMP can do wonderful photo editing.

GIMP’s default capabilities can be further enhanced by numerous free scripts and plugins.

If you play a lot with photographic filters, you will discover that GIMP can digitally reproduce the effects of many of these filters. Filter effects such as Neutral Density Graduation, Colour and diffuse can all be easily recreated digitally with GIMP.

The major weakness of GIMP lies in its inability to work with CMYK as a mode. Because of this, it has limitations in the commercial printing area.
