SOFTWARE IN REVIEW
“GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a
freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image
composition, and image authoring” (GIMP, 2016). The GIMP software can be compared to Adobe’s Photoshop software. The main difference between the two is
one is Free, Open Sourced and the
other is proprietary. I have some experience with this software. It is very
compatible to that of Photoshop. What
I like most about this software is the friendly ‘User Interface.’ The current version available for download is GIMP 2.8.18. that was released on July
14, 2016. Two major improvements of this version are (1) fixed a vulnerability
in the XCF loading code
(CVE-2016-4994) and (2) addressed and fixed Bugs – especially those that
effected system startup. This software comes highly recommended and can be
downloaded by visiting the following website link (Copy and Paste into your browser): https://www.gimp.org/.
