Mike Hammel, the Graphics HOW-TO guru, gave a demonstration of Gimp at the
last Boulder Linux Users group. From what I could see, Gimp is highly

plug-ins, and an open interface for creating your own filters.
He's written a series of articles for Linux Journal on Gimp. I'm not
sure if they are available on the net.
