GIMP stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program and deals in all of the different image formats that you’d be familiar with. GIMP is a free image retouching art software program in which users can edit photos, draw their own unique work, and basically get many of the same features from Adobe Photoshop for no cost. Is There More Beyond Photo Manipulation?.I could finally put Mario’s head onto Master Chief’s body with stunning, realistic flair.
It’s an aim that the developers, along with a revolutionary computer activist, had with its creation. Why would anyone allow for a Photoshop-like program to exist without pay? He directed me to GIMP, which I was extremely skeptical of. Free? Was there any better word to my 13-year-old ears? I could make funny images with NO financial investment whatsoever? Now we’re talking. I don’t know about you guys, but when I was in middle school, I barely had $20 to my name, (on account of spending it on candy and video games), so finding this out was heartbreaking.īut I soon found out from a close friend that I could do similar image manipulation and drawing in a different program. The only thing was that I quickly found out that Adobe Photoshop requires you to pay for it.
It was a chance to flex my creative muscles instead of doing math homework. I wanted to be able to take images of my favorite video game characters and blend them with other characters to give an absurd but amusing effect. Of course, my young enquiring mind needed to know how to replicate these images with my own personal touch, of course. When I started becoming computer literate in the early to mid-2000s, a thing I noticed quickly was how many clever and funny images existed on the Internet, created using what seemed to be Adobe Photoshop.
