Best thing in life is free! Yes, free or "Libre", a free newspaper, first circulated at MRT 3. MRT runs from SM North EDSA to LTR Taft Ave. Because it's free PDI had to print more due to increase demand :-/.
This post is not about MRT :ahaha: i don't know i just recalled riding it. Anyway since the best thing in life is free, i'll post free things Kabayans can use and download in the net, for free also! :okay: The best software, best wallpaper site and screen saver plus great games.

Interested in Photo, here is a free software for photo editing and retouching, image authoring and manipulation. Adjust your digital pictures and compile them to a single image...use Photoshop! :sigh:No i mean GIMP or GNU Image Manipulation Program a freely distributed program started in 1995 by Spencer Kimball and Peter Mattis. Licensed under the GNU General Public License, GIMP is free software. Yes Free - Libre!

"GIMP is used to process digital graphics and photographs. Typical uses include creating graphics and logos, resizing and cropping photos, altering colors, combining multiple images, removing unwanted image features, and converting between different image formats. GIMP can also be used to create basic animated images in GIF format. It is often used as a free software replacement for Adobe Photoshop, the most widely used bitmap editor in the printing and graphics industries... from Wikipedia."

"GIMP originally stood for General Image Manipulation Program. Its creators, Spencer Kimball and Petter Mattis, initially started GIMP as a semester-long project for a class at the University of California, Berkeley...read the ancient history here."

GIMP (just like Photoshop) has many features including brushes, path, selection, color support, masking tools, effects, script and filters, it has a version for Windows, Mac OS and Linux to choose from. It have many version since it is still a work in progress better use the GIMP 2.2.x version, a stable version. Click here for download.
