Gimpshop Offline Installer

broken image


Gimpshop 2.8 is available for most operating systems, imcluding Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris. For Developers: Download GIMPshop 2.8 Source Code: Download Source Code. In Mac OS 10.5 and earlier, you will also need X11 or XDarwin in order to launch and run Gimpshop. We recommend you download and install Apple's X11. The reasoning behind GIMPshop is that you like the power of the GIMP, but you want it wrapped up in a more familiar user interface. It basically takes advantage of GIMP?s open-source technology to produce a version of GIMP that will appeal more to Photoshop users who want to try the app without having to learn a whole new interface. Do you mean the portable version of Gimp.or GimpShop.they are two different things. GimpShop is a rather cheesy attempt to hack an older version of Gimp ( 2.2.8 ).

About GIMPshop

GIMPShop 2.8.0 is a simplifed installation package which installs the required packages in order to run GIMP on Windows. Apart from offering a separate installation package, GIMPShop does not offer any extra features which cannot be obtained by downloading the official GIMP packages (which are also available on this site). You should note that the installation package being offered by the distributors of GIMPShop may contain unwanted toolbars and advertisements which are not normally included in the original package available from the open source community or from that offered on Sourceforge. This download is licensed as freeware for the Windows (32-bit and 64-bit) operating system/platform without restrictions. GIMPshop is available to all software users as a free download for Windows.

Is GIMPshop safe to download?

We tested the file gimpshop_2.2.8_fix1_setup.exe with 26 antivirus programs and it turned out 100% clean. It's good practice to test any downloads from the Internet with trustworthy antivirus software.

Does GIMPshop work on my version of Windows?

Older versions of Windows often have trouble running modern software and thus GIMPshop may run into errors if you're running something like Windows XP. Conversely, much older software that hasn't been updated in years may run into errors while running on newer operating systems like Windows 10. You can always try running older programs in compatibility mode.

Officially supported operating systems include Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.

What versions of GIMPshop are available?

The current version of GIMPshop is 2.8.0 and is the latest version since we last checked. This is the full offline installer setup file for PC. At the moment, only the latest version is available.

How to Install the Linux port of GimpShop

One of the most common complains that most graphics artists have when they try switching to GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation program) is that the user interface for GIMP is clunky and is hard to use. I have facedthe same problem but over time I got used to the GIMP interface so didn't do anything about it.

On the other hand Scott Moschella actually decided to do something about it and spent a lot of time hacking the GIMP source to create GIMPShop where the tools, options, windows, and menus closely resemble Adobe Photoshop's menu structure and naming conventions. This modification makes it really easy for Adobe Photoshop users to switch to GIMP threreby saving a lot of money.

He initially created GIMPShop for the Mac OS and the original package with a Mac Installer is available here. He also made his modified source available so that others can port it to different OS's so I downloaded it to my computer and ported it to Linux. Below is a step by step guide of what I had to do to get it to install on my Debian computer.

In this section I have the pleasure of acknowledging the following people without whose input this would have never seen the light of the day:

Pre-Requisites

The GIMPShop package has a lot of pre-requisites that need to be installed before GIMP can be installed. Since this is a hacked version of GIMP the pre-requisites are the same as the official version. So if you have compiled GIMP from source before you should be able to skip this section without problems.

The following packages are required to install GIMPShop:

  • XML::Parser perl module
  • GLib >= 2.4.5
  • atk >= 1.0.1
  • GTK+ >= 2.4.4
  • libart-2.0
