gimp

i downloaded gimp and wanted to try it out. I ran into two problems right away so I had to uninstall it. First off, i live and work in China. I am an American English teacher over here and believe when I say this, not everyone in China speaks and reads Chinese, just like not everyone who lives in Japan speaks and reads Japanese. I went to your help page on the web and it covers language change but not for windows 7. There has got to be a simpler way to change the language then what is in your help section. most programs i download give me the option of language before downloading. You really need to fix this.

ITs been fixed in the development version and you will be able to change the language in the preferences starting 2.8.

But will you be able to navigate (even to) the preferences if it's all in Chinese?

Then again - at least the GIMP 2.6 installer for Windows allows you not to install any translations, which in turn means all you'll ever get from GIMP will be the built-in, i.e. English, messages...

If you don't speak and read Chinese, then why do you have system locale set to it? :)

But, as Alexia already noted, the language switch is there in upcoming 2.8.
