    See I just bought a new laptop made the switch from PC to Mac and SO not in the mood to pay for PS ever again... GIMP is supposed to be a monster and I can see that being fact. However I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM DOING!!!!

    Mains- check out a cool/free app called Paintbrush.

    It's like MSpaint for Mac. Good for quick/simple touching up/sketching.

    I'll check out GIMP.
    How big is it? In other words, how much pr0n will I have to delete? LOL

    I like Paintbrush for blanking out license plates in car pics. Quick, easy...done.

    I also use it to sketch out wiring diagrams and idea doodles. Very happy with it so far.
