GIMP(GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an open source alternative to commercial application Adobe Photoshop. However people used to with Photoshop UI might find its interface quite confusing. Also it could seem “geeky” to novices. So, here is a lifesaver for both types of users. The GIMPshop. It is made to replicate the look n’ feel of Adobe Photoshop while giving all the advantages GIMP offers.

GIMPshop is also an open source application and can run on Mac OS X, Windows 98+, Linux, and Solaris. It is small in download size and so is its resource consumption. It loads fast after the first run. For some older versions of this application, you may need a plugin called “Deweirdifier” to enable MDI(Multiple Document Interface) in Windows. However, this need is removed from its latest versions as it contains this plugin by default.

This application does not support Photoshop plugins but can support all the GIMP plugins, filters, brushes etc. So, you don’t have to worry about lack of such content. For all these features it provides for free, this is a perfect start for all GIMP wannabes. Should i also say it embraces experts too?

Here’s its screenshot.
