2.8 right now is a show-stopper, literally. But until that download file size changes and the hash remains the same, I'll wait for the next iteration of GIMP.
#JPG FOR GIMP 2.8 DOWNLOAD UPDATE#
If they ever update 2.8 for Windows to fix the speed and display issues, I'll check it out.
There were other problems with layers and layer selections before that I didn't notice last time I tried GIMP, however I've uninstalled 2.8 and have gone back to 2.6.12 since it addresses all of my needs, even if it isn't as "new" as 2.8. Since I use some Windows-only programs to create part of my GIMP projects, switching back and forth between them, having to use two operating systems to get my projects done isn't practical. So why not downgrade to the version you love.
#JPG FOR GIMP 2.8 DOWNLOAD DRIVERS#
provides free software downloads for old versions of programs, drivers and games. I've tried GIMP 2.8 for Windows three times, but it has not been updated since the 2.8 for Linux came out. The GIMP 2.8.0 Change Log User Interface - Single-Window Mode - Multi-Column Dock Windows - More Screen Real Estate For Dockable Dialogs - Save And Export. In 2.6, it didn't take any noticeable time at all. When switching from hidden to visible, it took about 30 seconds to load, a row at a time. Not exactly state of the art, but no slouch in the processing department.Īfter installing and running GIMP 2.8 without any problems, I opened an old project with about a dozen layers, one of which was a template I used to size a project for print. I run 2 GB 1066 DDR2 RAM in a Winx XP Pro, SP3 machine with a 3.0 GHz Core2 Duo processor. It's four times larger than Gimp 2.6 last version, but that's not an issue. I didn't get beyond that in my evaluation. An image with fewer colors, such as a button, icon, or screenshot, is better suited to the PNG format. Use JPEG for Photographs because they usually have many colors and great detail. An optimal image for the web depends upon the image type and the file format.
My problem with Gimp 2.8 is that it's SLOW. Images with an Optimal Size/Quality Ratio.
