Free gimp software for mac

GIMP 2.6.6 brings you a dream tool for photo retouching, image composition, and image authoring. It is a powerful piece of software with capabilities not found in any other free software product. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert-quality photo-retouching program, an online batch-processing system, a mass production image renderer, or an image-format converter. GIMP is modular, expandable, and extensible. It is designed to be augmented with plug-ins and extensions to do just about anything. The advanced scripting interface allows everything from the simplest task to the most complex image-manipulation procedures to be easily scripted.

Major Features:

1. Customizable Interface
   • Each task requires a different environment and GIMP allows you to customize the view and behavior the way you like it. Starting from the widget theme, allowing you to change colors, widget spacings and icon sizes to custom tool sets in the toolbox. The interface is modulized into so called docks, allowing you to stack them into tabs or keep them open in their own window. Pressing the tab key will toggle them hidden.
   • GIMP features a great fullscreen mode allowing you to not only preview your artwork but also do editing work while using the most of your screen estate.
2. Photo Enhancement
   • Numerous digital photo imperfections can be easily compensated for using GIMP. Fix perspective distortion caused by lens tilt simply choosing the corrective mode in the transform tools. Eliminate lens' barrel distortion and vignetting with a powerful filter but a simple interface.
3. Digital Retouching
   • GIMP is ideal for advanced photo retouching techniques. Get rid of unneeded details using the clone tool, or touch up minor details easily with the new healing tool. With the perspective clone tool, it's not difficult to clone objects with perspective in mind just as easily as with the orthogonal clone.
4. Hardware Support
   • GIMP includes a very unique support for various input devices out of the box. Pressure and tilt sensitive tablets, but also a wide range of USB or MIDI controllers. You can bind often-used actions to device events such as rotating a USB wheel or moving a MIDI controller's slider. Change the size, angle or opacity of a brush while you paint, bind your favorite scripts to buttons. Speed up your workflow!
5. File Formats
   • The file format support ranges from the common likes of JPEG (JFIF), GIF, PNG, TIFF to special use formats such as the multi-resolution and multi-color-depth Windows icon files. The architecture allows to extend GIMP's format capabilities with a plug-in. You can find some rare format support in the GIMP plugin registry.

Enhancements:

• GIMP 2.6.6 is a bug-fix release in the stable GIMP 2.6 series. This release contains an important fix for compiling GIMP against the recently released GTK+ 2.16.
  

Requirements:

• GNU/Linux (i386, PPC)
• Microsoft Windows (XP, Vista)

Gimpshop is a Gimp modification that features menu layouts, dialogs and naming conventions similar to those found in Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop users should feel right at home using Gimpshop. The Gimp, on which Gimpshop is based, is a powerful, open source image editing application. For more info on the Gimp see this page. Gimpshop is essentially the same program with some cosmetic changes.
Enhancements:
- Universal Binary.

imgSeek is a photo collection manager and viewer with content-based search and many other features. The query is expressed either as a rough sketch painted by the user or as another image you supply (or an image in your collection). The searching algorithm will make use of multiresolution wavelet decomposition of the query and database images.
If youre interested on integrating a content-based image database into an existing system, take a look at the new server side version and its online demo.
Main features:
- You simply draw a rough sketch of what you want to find and imgSeek displays for you a thumbnail view of the best matches.
- Query images similar to one in your collection by double-clicking on its thumbnail.
- Group your photos by similarity for easy browsing. You may also have them clustered automatically by color, date (group events automatically using an adaptive clustering algorithm for time differences), filename or image features.
- Edit metadata (description, camera, lens, etc) for every image, and use them on the HTML albums generated or for searching photos. You can also use custom metadata fields.
- EXIF and IPTC data found on JPEG/TIFF files are automatically imported. (Read-only support)
- Advanced command-line utility to scan for new files, query for similar images and show image metadata. (You may use it on your cron system for example)
- Transform images or batches automatically: Place text captions, change brightness, contrast, blur, etc. Apply lossless rotations automatically if jpegtran is available.
- Generate HTML albums for the entire collection, a given directory or similarity group
- Advanced keyword searching for metadata.
- Find all duplicate images on your collection with the parameters you specify. (dimensions, filesize, filename, similarity, average luminance)
- Organize and browse pictures in groups with an easy drag & drop interface. You can also perform advanced queries on groups (eg.: show me all images that belong to group A and B but not group C)
- Support for multiple volumes of pictures. You may assign all images on a CD to a given Volume
- Automatic thumbnail generation and caching. Using this standard, which is also used by Gimp, Nautilus/Gnome, Rox Desktop, gThumb and others.
- Supported file formats are jpg, gif, bmp, png, xbm, and pnm. If you have ImageMagick installed, imgSeek will also support over 87 image formats.
- Remember the way images should be displayed: If you rotate an image 270 degrees, imgSeek will remember it and do the same the next time you view this image.
- Export/Import metadata to/from CSV files and export a batch or your collection to XML files, which can be later parsed by some other tool to generate whatever you want.
- Rename a file or batch of files automatically: Replace strings, convert to upper/lowercase, append a string, create numbered series, etc.
- Add images to the database from a directory recursively.
- User friendly interface that remembers typed queries and drawn sketches for later usage.
- Slideshow for a given directory, whole collection or for a chosen group of similar images. You can also delete and organize images in groups with hotkeys.
- Browse images by thumbnail and view them on a preview window.
- Browse your system files for images, and bookmark your favorite directories. While browsing, you may query for similar images on your collection.

Many of you may know the problem: Handling images for placing them into eBay auctions is way too complicated. Basically it is not much work, but if you want to prepare 20 auctions, the work is far too much…

eBayize is a pythonscript (console aswell as GUI), that resizes and beautifies your images for placing them into an eBay offer. Starting with giving the path to the folder where the images are stored, eBayize previews all images. Then, after selecting which ones you want or do not want, you can edit them (GIMP starts up) or open them in full size.

After you have entered a description for each image, eBayize will resize all images, put a nice border around them (with dropshadows, using imagemagick) and generate an HTML-file with the sourcecode of the gallery. It then uploads the generated files via SCP or FTP (depends on your configuration).
