<p>Hi NTP neighbors,<br>
<br>
My friend Alice Sims, who runs the organization Art for the <br>
People, and her talented computer friend Luke Vawter, are putting on <br>
some free trainings on using GIMP - the Graphics Image Manipulation <br>
Program, in the Takoma Park Computer Center. Sorry for the short <br>
notice, but these trainings are taking place on Thurs evening of this <br>
week (7 pm to 8 pm) and on Saturday afternoon (noon to 1 pm) in Room A <br>
of the computer center.<br>
<br>
see flyer at <a href="http://www.his.com/~pshapiro/Gimp.course.flyer.jpg">http://www.his.com/~pshapiro/Gimp.course.flyer.jpg</a><br>
<br>
GIMP is free software that runs on Linux, Macintosh and Windows <br>
computer. It can do a lot of what Photoshop does. You can create <br>
flyers with GIMP, create graphics for presentations, create graphics <br>
for videos and do a bunch of fun graphics manipulations in GIMP. The <br>
original Google logo was created in GIMP.<br>
<br>
This week's trainings are pilots for more extended free GIMP <br>
trainings that will be taking place this fall in our computer center.<br>
<br>
The trainings are best suited for middle school students on up <br>
through adults -- although elementary school students are quite <br>
welcome to attend.<br>
<br>
Thanks for sharing info about the above with anyone you know <br>
who might be interested in this. I'll be attending these trainings <br>
myself, too.<br>
<br>

<br>
If someone can forward this email to the TakomaPAKK email list (and <br>
other local lists), that would be great.<br>
