I just installed gimpshop the other day on a whim and immediately I could work at 90% capacity just based 20+ years of Photoshop muscle memory. Gimp never lasted more than a day with me the dozen or so times I've tried it before.

There are ways to make it work, and the tooling out there is getting better every day.

Looks like it's last official version was released in 2007. Are you using a version from gimpshop.com with added adware/spyware? The wiki for gimpshop is pretty eye-opening...

I originally created Gimpshop, but I'm not the jerk who owns that domain and added adware & spyware to the source. Sorry about that. I hate that this guy is out there making my fun little project into an abomination.

I had no clue about this. Thanks for the heads up. Not sure which one I installed but it's on my test machine and I can check tomorrow
