GIMP (2.8.2) is now available as a "native" OS/X app.

Akima:
It has, of course, been possible to run GIMP on a Mac for years by running it under X, but they've finally rolled out the "poor girl's Photoshop" as an OS/X app. I have no idea how many GIMPers hang out here, but if it is of interest, you can download the .dmg from here.

Edit: Woot! Pressure-sensitivity finally works properly on my tablet. That never was  GIMP problem, but one with Apple's X implementation, but it is nice to have it apparently fixed.

celticgeek:
I GIMP, but mostly for cropping and sizing.  The GNU/Linux version is what I use.  I like it very much.

Redball:
I'd thought of GIMP as a printer driver thing, maybe confusing it with CUPS, and didn't know its photo manipulation functions. I used Photoshop years ago, but use Elements sometimes, Graphic Converter more often, but neither very much. And I'm no expert and don't especially need to be.

BeoPuppy:
I use Paint.net. It serves me well ... combined with Microsoft paint ...

What are the benefits of GIMP? I came across a tutorial once that used GIMP to create stencils for Grafitti and that is of some interest to me but other than that? Have I missed something?

Omega Entity:
It's essentially the poor-man's Photoshop, as I understand it. I think I have it downloaded somewhere, but  I haven't tried it out yet.
