The GIMP is a very good image editor but it does require this software installed on your computer first.
It is used to create the graphical interface of the GIMP including menus.
It was created for use with the GIMP (the letters stand for GIMP Tool Kit) but is used with many other open source programs including GAIM for instant messaging.
A separate version is also available for Windows 98/ME and NT4.
