Which one of the attached? Looks like you're using Microsoft Windows. (Windows 8? Vista? I can't tell) The folder to remove would be C:\Users\John\.gimp-2.8 I think -- or rename it so you can put it back later if desired. GIMP should create a new .gimp-2.8 folder on startup. If GIMP 2.8 has never worked properly for you, it might be a problem with migrating settings from version 2.6 in some cases. I don't know that there is such a problem, though - I am speculating.

Both .gimp-2.6 and .gimp-2.8 (the ones that start with a . (dot) ). Your troubles probably started when you installed Gimp and it migrated your settings from .gimp-2.6 to .gimp.2.8 On Sun, Aug 17, 2014 at 2:49 AM, Planenuts for...@gimpusers.com wrote: Make a backup of your personal Gimp folder and then delete it.

Your troubles probably started when you installed Gimp and it migrated your settings from .gimp-2.6 to .gimp.2.8 Problem solved and Gimp is much happier now! :-) Thank you for your help.

[Gimp-user] First Time User - Just a blank Gimp Screen
Hi, I'm wondering if you don't have the docks hidden. I also got tricked by this a few times, the first times I was trying GIMP. Hi the Tab key (or check the menu Windows Hide Docks) to check if that's your problem. Have fun. Jehan I too have the same problem, a blank screen with no toolbox or options. Managed to get a toolbox up and then the options dialog, but anytime I change tools, the dialog disappears. -- Planenuts (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

[Gimp-user] First Time User - Just a blank Gimp Screen
I'm just a first time user. The only thing I see is a very big and blank gimp screen telling me to drag dialogs to the side. Is there Not a Default with lots of nice widows and icons already there? How do i get to that point. -- wayward_one (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
