ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.4.0

Version 2.4 of the GNU Image Manipulation Program is finally out.

Developers, artists and user interface designers from all over the world worked together to make GIMP more powerful and easier to use than ever. The changes from version 2.2 are described in the release notes on

http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.4.html

For a more detailed list of changes, please have a look at the NEWS file at http://developer.gimp.org/NEWS-2.4

If you want to compile GIMP 2.4 yourself, you can grab the tarball from ftp.gimp.org or one of its mirrors:

ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.4/

Binary packages for the various supported platforms are expected to become available over the next couple of days. The new gimp.org website will help you to locate the packages for your system:

http://gimp.org/downloads/

Thanks a lot to everyone who helped to improve GIMP.

The roadmap for GIMP 2.6 will be discussed over the next weeks on the gimp-developer mailing-list. We can only tell you so much now: It is going to rock and it shouldn't take as long to get it done as it took to finish GIMP 2.4. If you want to join the effort, your help is much appreciated.

Happy GIMPing,
Sven

Congratulations on the new release!

I've been checking out the RC3 under Ubuntu since upgrading to Gutsy, and I like this new release very much! I am especially thankful for the new option to scale all brushes, the import of PhotoShop brushes, as well as the color management and soft-proofing features. Awesome work to everybody who contributed. :D

Also to all of those who were involved in the design of the new website, good work!
