Let the kids finger paint over the cracked walls. As far as Gimp. I don't know about the other issues, but rename intl dll intl-old.dll
Then re-install Gimp. There is no feasible way to hold someone's hand through troubleshooting Gimp though. Because it is open source there are morose bugs that a user must muddle through when things go wrong. Good luck! Evan Sent from my shoe.
