Last time I used a Mac, the "GIMP on OS X" link from http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/ seemed like the most user-friendly option to me. Leopard and newer have X11 included, so it's only the one download, and http://gimp.lisanet.de/Website/Photo_editing.html says Resynthesizer etc. is included, so you get lots of plugins that you'd have to download and install one by one on Windows[1]. If you want the 2.7 beta, I guess you'll have to compile / use MacPorts. -Kevin [1] Of course, on Linux, it's even easier =P _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
