A very good demonstration of Gimp by someone who knows it well. For me not quite such a good tutorial ( which I was hoping) because I am blighted with an incredibly slow learning gene. Not so much of a bright star, more like a passing rock. I will check out more of his tutorials however. Cannot pretend I lost the will many times through this course but I persevered, sadly as I write this I feel I have remembered very little. ( probably because my ram is so small)
However well done on putting this course together of a very complicated product.

Nada para complementar, pois o curso foi bem completo e dentro do prometido!

A little geared towards art that will be drawn in Gimp which I wont be doing, but we'll see what I learn :D

professional and interesting!

Easy to understand

By Uta Kaemper on 2/22/2018

Man kann dem Dozenten gut zuhren, und man kann leicht nachvollziehen, was im Kurs passiert.
Es stimmt auf jeden Fall, dass dieser Kurs auch fr die Gimp Version 2.10 brauchbar ist. Die Notizen zur aktuellen Version am Anfang des Kurses haben vllig ausgereicht.

Ditch the use of the zoom tool. We can see the menus and dialogs quite clearly and it just wastes time without adding anything to the content.

By Amy Bullock on 2/8/2018

It's good, but some of what he does just happens with no explanation, like how he got a menu in a box on the left. MIne runs all the way down the left side.

By Tom on 10/21/2017

real disappointed so far hope it gets better
