Gimp 2 For Mac Os X

OS X: GIMP is a fantastic free alternative to Photoshop for all desktop operating systems, but on Mac it was a bit of a pain to set it up, because you needed to install X11. Gimp now, however.

Gimp-Print 4.2.7 is the last stable release of Gimp-Print version 4.2.x for Mac OS X; it includes 225 drivers supporting over 600 printers. The disk-image file includes an OS X installer package, an uninstaller package, plus illustrated documentation to easily guide you through the printer set-up process.
 Here is a brief summary of some of the most important new features introduced in GIMP 2.2. There are many other smaller changes that long-time users will notice and appreciate (or complain about!). There are also important changes at the level of plug-in programming and Script-Fu creating that are not covered here. 
Interoperability and Standards Support You can drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste image data from the GIMP to any application which supports image/png drops (currently Abiword and Kword at least) and image/xml+svg drops (Inkscape supports this one). So you can copy-and-paste curves into the GIMP from Inkscape, and then drag a selection into Abiword to include it inline in your document. 
 Patterns can now be any supported GtkPixbuf format, including png, jpeg, xbm and others. 
GIMP can load gradients from SVG files, and palettes from ACT and RIFF files. 
 Drag-and-drop support has been extended. You can now drop files and URIs onto an image window, where they will be opened in the existing image as new layers. 
Note
 Please note, that Drag and Drop will not work for Apple Mac OS X between GIMP and the finder. This is due to a lack of functionality on Apples X11.app 
Shortcut Editor You can now edit your shortcuts in a dedicated dialog, as well as continue to use the little-known dynamic shortcuts feature (which has been there since 1.2). 
Plug-in Previews We have provided a standard preview widget for plug-in authors which greatly reduces the amount of code required to support previews. David Odin has integrated this widget into all the current filters, so that now many more filters in the GIMP include a preview which updates in real time, and the various previews behave much more consistently. 
Real-Time Previews of Transform Operations The transform tools (shear, scale, perspective and rotate) can now show a real-time preview of the result of the operation when the tool is in 'Traditional' mode. Previously, only a transforming grid was shown. 
GNOME Human Interface Guide Conformance A lot of work has been done on making the GIMP's interface simpler and more usable for newcomers. Most dialogs now follows the GNOME HIG to the best of our knowledge. In addition, dialogs have separated out or removed many 'Advanced' options, and replaced them with sane defaults or hidden them in an expander. 
GTK+ 2.4 Migration Menus use the GtkUIManager to generate menu structure dynamically from XML data files. 
 A completely revamped File Chooser is used everywhere in the GIMP for opening or saving files. The best thing about it is that it lets you create a set of 'bookmarks', making it possible to navigate quickly and easily to commonly used directories. 
GIMP now supports fancy ARGB cursors when they are available on the system. 
Gimp 2 For Mac Os X 10 13 DownloadBasic Vector Support Using the GFig plug-in, the GIMP now supports the basic functionality of vector layers. The GFig plug-in supports a number of vector graphics features such as gradient fills, Bezier curves and curve stroking. It is also the easiest way to create regular or irregular polygons in the GIMP. In the GIMP 2.2, you can create GFig layers, and re-edit these layers in GFig afterwards. This level of vector support is still quite primitive, however, in comparison to dedicated vector-graphics programs such as Inkscape. 
Also . . . There are many other smaller user-visible features. A rapid-fire list of some of those features is below. 
 It is now possible to run the GIMP in batch mode without an X server. 
 We have a GIMP binary (GIMP-console) which is not linked to GTK+ at all. 
Improved interface for extended input devices
 Editable toolbox: You can now decide which tools should be shown in the Toolbox, and their order. In particular, you can add any or all of the Color Tools to the Toolbox if you wish to. 
 Histogram overlays R, G and B histograms on the Value histogram, and calculates the histogram only for the contents of the selection. 
 Shortcuts are now shared across all GIMP windows. 
Current Stable VersionThe current stable release of GIMP is 2.10.22 (2020-10-04).

GIMP for Unix-like systems If available, the official package from your Unix-like distribution is the recommended method of installing GIMP!
 The flatpak build is new and has known limitations, though it will likely provide faster updates, following GIMP releases closely. 
 Therefore choose your installation medium according to your needs. 
 Flatpak build available in: i386, x86-64, ARM and AArch64. 
Flatpak additional instructionsThe flatpak link above should open your software installer and prompt you to install GIMP. Yet it may not work out-of-the-box on some platforms since the flatpak technology is new. If that is the case, ensure flatpak is installed and if clicking the link still does not prompt to install GIMP, then manually install by command line: 
Gimp 2 Mac Os X DownloadEbay app for mac os. flatpak install https://flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.gimp.GIMP.flatpakref
 Once installed, it will be made available exactly the same way as other applications (menus, desktop overview, or any specific application launch process used by your desktop). 
 If this is not the case, we suggest to report a bug to your desktop or distribution asking for proper support of flatpak. In the meantime, you can still run it by command line (not as the recommended method, only a workaround): 
flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP//stable
 This installation will also provide regular update. You don't have to come back on this page and install again (it will not work!) when a new version of GIMP is released. Instead if your distribution and/or desktop has a good support for flatpak, it should propose to perform updates. 
 Once again, if your distribution does not have proper support, you can always fall back to using the following command line: 
flatpak update
Systems without flatpak support GIMP can also run on Solaris and is available for the BSD family of systems such as FreeBSD and OpenBSD. 
 Please refer to the documentation for your Unix-like system on the installation of software. 
GIMP for macOSNote: the currently available package provides GIMP 2.10.14 and has not yet updated to the latest version, GIMP 2.10.22. We're working on that, please check back later.
 The download links above will attempt to download GIMP from one of our trusted mirror servers. If the mirrors do not work or you would rather download directly from our server, you can get the direct download here. 
 Supported OS: macOS 10.9 Mavericks or over 
Since the 2.8.2 version, GIMP runs on OSX natively. No X11 environment is required.
Native buildThe official GIMP 2.10 DMG installer (linked above) is a stock GIMP build without any add-ons. Just open the downloaded DMG and drag and drop GIMP into your 'Applications' folder.
 The SHA256 hash sum for gimp-2.10.14-x86_64-1.dmg is: 52654d85f894834f6c134c724beff3eddf212a1bda317299314322cfeff97e52

Older DownloadsPrevious installers for OSX can be found here: download.gimp.org.
Macports An easy way to compile and install GIMP and other great Free software on your Mac is by using Macports. The installer allows you to choose from a large directory of packages. To install gimp using Macports, you simply do sudo port install gimp once you have Macports installed. 
 Last we checked, the GIMP port file pointed to the current stable release and we have reports from people who've built GIMP successfully this way. 
Homebrew Homebrew is similar to Macports and provides packages (aka formulas) to install, either by compiling them from source or by using pre-made binaries. There are indications that there is now a formula for GIMP, installable with: brew tap homebrew/cask && brew cask install gimp. 
NOTE! Please be aware that it was announced recently that Homebrew is using analytics. To turn this off in homebrew then run: brew analytics off
 You can read more about this on Brew Analytics. 
Fink Fink is a package repository that offer mostly precompiled binaries. It provides the apt-get command known to e.g. Debian and Ubuntu users, and installing GIMP is as easy as sudo apt-get install gimp once you have installed the Fink installer. 
 If there's no binary package, then fink install gimp will compile GIMP from source. 
 Disclaimer: we haven't been able to determine if it is possible to install or build recent GIMP from Fink. Last we checked, GIMP 2.6.12 appears to be the most recent GIMP package that is offered there. 

Note
Please note, that Drag and Drop will not work for Apple Mac OS X between GIMP and the finder. This is due to a lack of functionality on Apples X11.app
