Thread Starter 
I recently downloaded the free photo manipulation program GIMP and have been learning how to make my own siggies with it.

I need a safe source for GIMP brushes.
If you know of one...
please share it.

Any other ideas or GIMP goodies would be greatly appreciated.

I love GIMP! I haven't done anything fancy with it, but use it for any photo editing

I have no idea about brushes or anything like that unfortunately.

I understand Sarah....
Because there is no organized user manual...
when I first began, I didn't even know, what I didn't know.
I still have a lot to learn.

I started this thread because I would like to honor Hope's memory by adding my trimmed tree.

I think that I need holiday brushes for that but am not sure.
Although I have a good anti-virus program, I hesitate to download from unknown sites.
Am I being over cautious?

Anything related to GIMP is welcome here.

I actually bought this book - http://gimpbook.com/ which was pretty useful.

I could send it to you, I remember the last time I looked at it - Smudge was a tiny kitten and sitting on my chest trying to read it. Hubby took a photo and we sent it to the author because it was so cute...

Smudge likes to read.

Are you sure you are done with the book Sarah?
I think that it might really help.
