Hi Michael,
I've tried your suggestions but no joy.

Hi Kevin,
Many thanks. Yes, I've been opening RAW files. I tried again with a JPG and find
that it opens fine. I suppose I need to find a plug-in for RAW files now?
Thanks,
Bill

HI Shlomi,
First of all, I should say I'm not exactly PC savvy when it comes to technical
stuff.
Yes, I read all the pitfalls about downloading any programs and can confirm that
I downloaded from http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ .
My operating system is Windows 10 but I'm afraid I don't know what the CPU
version or architecture is.
I've attached a screenshot.
Hope this helps.
Liparis

[Gimp-user] Help

2015-09-19 Thread Liparis
Hi,
I've just downloaded the latest Gimp for the first time. However, I'm very
frustrated. All I get when I open Gimp is a big empty box, no tools of any sort.
It looks nothing like the screen shots in the manual! Along the top of the box
are the menus but that's all. When I open a photograph in it, it appears as a
small thumbnail that I'm unable to do anything with. Also, by default, when
looking for images, it is set to recognise "All Files" but it doesn't do so, I
have to select a different file then choose all files again to see the images.
Hope you can help, I'm becoming extremely frustrated!
Many thanks.
