| == GIMP Image Editor == The GIMP is a powerful image editing application and is the default image editor for Ubuntu. It will happily open and save to most image file formats and offers a host of useful features, plus the scope to add more using its plug-in system. Filters such as Motion Blur, Cubism and Predator make advanced image editing fun and easy. The GIMP opens several windows by default, which act as 'toolboxes' from which you can tweak settings and select tools to work on your image with. For more information, tutorials and extensions, visit [http://www.gimp.org the GIMP website] or read TheGimpHowto. |

Some applications come with the default installation of Ubuntu and even more are available in the repositories or elsewhere in the form of deb packages or tar balls. |
