This fault is both mine and the books. I perhaps need; "Gimp for Dummies."That being said; I shall persevere and simply keep at it.I am not at all sorry to have bought it.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.

I would have done just as well on my own and using the free notes on the Gimp website....save your money....0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Best book about GIMP you can buy.By Samuel BaileyI took a class on GIMP at my college. It didnt require any text book; but I wanted a good resource anyway. Of all the books I researched on GIMP; this one comes the closest to being like a text that youd use in a college course. Its comprehensive; but also systematic. The best book on the subject I know of.
