How can I paint a straight line (no-curved) line in the GIMP?.
 * I have found the answer, see: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Straight_Line/
 * Create a path, select a brush, stroke the path. Ojw 21:04, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Or, use you can use the SHIFT key with paint, pencil, airbrush, etc. Snargle 23:10, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Written for 2.4
How is the book written for a version of Gimp that is not even released as an unstable one? --69.36.97.248 04:37, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Video of The Gimp.
The file is a video showing how to convert to black and white with the gimp. Where can I put it? --ogago 00:09, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion
A chapter on "Gimp for the MS Paint user" ??

I'm sure everyone knows how to use MS Paint. And switching to Gimp should start with the "basics", like drawing straight lines, and so forth. --128.8.238.185 17:51, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Collaboration of the month people...
I know a lot about The Gimp. Im not a professional, I have no training in PhotoShop or The Gimp, but I know how to use it after hours of playing with it.

I plan to add a few sections to the Contents page. I would ask for opinions, but this page hasn't been updated in 5 days, so I know I won't get anywhere with that...
 * Just make the additions that you want to add. Reub2000 06:44, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Let's include other guides
There are some guides for the Gimp around, and some of them are realised under a free license, like the documentation coming with the package and many more (see ). What's the point of writing a new one from scratch?? we could include here all the tutorials that are GPLed; if they are not, we could try to ask the authors for the permission to put their guide here. Then we can start working on topics that those guides did not consider. What do you think about it?? Alessio Damato 17:11, 20 November 2006 (UTC)


 * While I would not agree with junking what is already here - a lot of people have already put a lot of work into it - if there is other content out there which would be of benefit being included, and is under the GNU FDL, then bring it in! - AmishThrasher 01:16, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Converting to black and white
I just wrote Photoshop/Converting to black and white and I'm sure The GIMP can do most of this. Feel free to use that article any way you like. (I'm working on illustrations now.) Fg2 06:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Where to start?
Hello, new to wikibooks. Would like to help out with the GIMP wikibook but I'm unsure if there's any todo list, a wishlist, anyone in charge, or any sort of organizational plan at all? Just wondering where I should start. Thanks Qwuery (talk) 22:19, 7 July 2008 (UTC)


 * There's a Todo box. You could try to write new article, or as wrote there about every tool in toolbox ( like here ), or expand existing artricles. There's a lot to do, just no one has written anything in todo list. Soeb (talk) 09:23, 8 July 2008 (UTC) Corrected the link Soeb talk&#124;contribs 18:23, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Manual of Style
Shouldn't we make one? There are some general conventions, and I think those could be collected in one place. Like keys, lists, naming and such. It would make it easier for people to contribute. Soeb talk&#124;contribs 19:28, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
