I'm glad to see the added information in this thread. I've just spent
several hours reading the online manual for Gimp. The writer of the doc
appears to have a native language of French, and there are many spelling
and grammar errors, but for the most part it is decipherable, and I've
learned a lot, and even applied it to making a new logo for my Ray's
Links site.
His advanced tutorials do fall a little short on the point of
understandability 'though, so I'm hoping the Grokking the Gimp book I
installed from Synaptic can help in that regard.
Later, Ray Parrish
