GIMP - Популярный среди почитателей Linux мощный графический редактор, перенесенный на Windows-платформу. Обладает практически всеми функциями, необходимыми современному графическому редактору. Редактор поддерживает растровую графику и частично векторную.

Графический редактор GIMP можно использовать для создания и обработки цифровой графики и фотографий, например для создания рисунков и логотипов, изменения размера фотографий, манипуляций с цветами изображения, комбинирования изображений с использованием слоев, удаления элементов изображения, конвертации между разными типами графических файлов.

Основные характеристики GIMP:
- Инструменты для рисования. Полный комплект инструментов, среди которых кисть, карандаш, клоны (штамп) и другие. Все инструменты рисования гибко настраиваются (толщина линий, форма, прозрачность и т.д.).
- Система. Размеры изображения ограничиваются лишь свободным дисковым пространством. Не ограничено количество одновременно открытых изображений.
- Полная поддержка альфа канала. Слои. Редактируемые текстовые слои.
- Инструменты трансформации: вращение, масштаб, отражение, наклон.
- Инструменты выделения включают прямоугольник, эллипс, свободное и "умное".
- Работа со сканером и планшетом.
- Фильтры. Пакетная обработка. Работа с экспозицией.
- Полная история работы с изображением.
- Анимация. Возможность работы с отдельными кадрами как со слоями одного изображения. Поддержка формата MNG.
- Обработка файлов. Среди поддерживаемых форматов - bmp, gif, jpeg, mng, pcx, pdf, png, ps, psd, svg, tiff, tga, xpm и много других. Конвертация форматов изображения.
- Полная поддержка русского и украинского языков.
- И много, много другого...

Features:

Customizable Interface

Each task requires a different environment and GIMP allows you to customize the view and behavior the way you like it. Starting from the widget theme, allowing you to change colors, widget spacings and icon sizes to custom tool sets in the toolbox. The interface is modulized into so called docks, allowing you to stack them into tabs or keep them open in their own window. Pressing the tab key will toggle them hidden.


GIMP features a great fullscreen mode allowing you to not only preview your artwork but also do editing work while using the most of your screen estate.

Photo Enhancement

Numerous digital photo imperfections can be easily compensated for using GIMP. Fix perspective distortion caused by lens tilt simply choosing the corrective mode in the transform tools. Eliminate lens' barrel distortion and vignetting with a powerful filter but a simple interface.


The included channel mixer gives you the flexibility and power to get your B/W photography stand out the way you need.



Digital Retouching

GIMP is ideal for advanced photo retouching techniques. Get rid of unneeded details using the clone tool, or touch up minor details easily with the new healing tool. With the perspective clone tool, it's not difficult to clone objects with perspective in mind just as easily as with the orthogonal clone.

Hardware Support

GIMP includes a very unique support for various input devices out of the box. Pressure and tilt sensitive tablets, but also a wide range of USB or MIDI controllers. You can bind often-used actions to device events such as rotating a USB wheel or moving a MIDI controller's slider. Change the size, angle or opacity of a brush while you paint, bind your favorite scripts to buttons. Speed up your workflow!



File Formats

The file format support ranges from the common likes of JPEG (JFIF), GIF, PNG, TIFF to special use formats such as the multi-resolution and multi-color-depth Windows icon files. The architecture allows to extend GIMP's format capabilities with a plug-in.


Thanks to the transparent virtual file system, it is possible to load and save files to from remote locations using protocols such as FTP, HTTP or even SMB (MS Windows shares) and SFTP/SSH.

To save disk space, any format can be saved with an archive extension such as ZIP, GZ or BZ2 and GIMP will transparently compress the file without you needing to do any extra steps.
