GIMP is a Free Photoshop Alternative
As the latest entry in the GIMP 2.8.x series — [released back in 2012][2] and notable for introducing the long-sought single window mode — version 2.8.12 continues to refine rather than reinvent. As such there are no new user-facing features to be found.
Instead, developers bring a fresh batch of bug fixes to the table aimed at improving the overall stability, security and style of the famous app.
- Brush sizes from plugins are no longer distorted
- More robust loading of .XCF files
- Widget direction now matches interface language (e.g. RTL)
- Security improvements to the script-fu-server
Documentation, help and translation updates are also included. For a complete change log of everything fixed between 2.8.10 and 2.8.12, see [the GNOME Git notes][2].
