I don't use Windows, but this seems to be an eternal problem. So I set about going through the motions of downloading a windows version
Start at http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ Then "Show other downloads" Then "Windows" Comment: This assumes that if a Windows version is not in the main listing, it must be in "Other downloads" I do not believe this to be user friendly to Windows users, particularly as they probably make up 80% of users? But then having got to the Windows section, the first line reads; The Windows installer packages by Jernej Simončič are distributed from the GIMP HTTP server (download.gimp.org) and its mirror servers Comment: Clicking on download.gimp.org presents a directory listing. I could imagine Windows users rolling over to die at this point! But continuing it then offers first a torrent Download GIMP 2.8.14 <<---Link to torrent If the torrent download doesn't work, you can also follow this link<<--link to exe file. It's no wonder users attempting to download gimp end up with infected programs which are probably easier to access from a Google search. So that's my rant, my suggestion to the keeper of the download page is to put the Windows version at the top; GIMP for Windows Torrent link program link FWIW Owen > Sent: Monday, January 12, 2015 at 9:29 AM > From: "Pat David" <patda...@gmail.com> > To: SportShots <for...@gimpusers.com>, gimp-user-list@gnome.org > Cc: notificati...@gimpusers.com > Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] program crashes > > Could you clarify what you mean by GIMP website _then_ gimpusers.com? > On Sun, Jan 11, 2015 at 11:19 AM SportShots <for...@gimpusers.com> wrote: > > > >Where did you download GIMP from?
