This is very cool. Will it work on Tiger?

... for you information.

I've recently uploaded two new releases for Gimp 2.6.x for Mac OS X. They
are

Gimp 2.6.1 for Leopard / Intel and
Gimp 2.6.0 for Leopard / PowerPC

You can download them from my site on

http://gimp.lisanet.de/Website/Download.html

or directly from SF

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=211713

Enjoy.

Hi,

it's a pain if the Mac OS X support team changes the website and the download URLs every once in a while. It would be really nice if the Apple users could get their act together and provide a single place that provides information and downloads for GIMP on Mac OS X.

We can't even link to your website as it seems to only provide information in German?! What about moving your packages to wilber-loves-apple.org instead of duplicating that effort?

The Mac release of Gimp 2.6.1 at lisanet.de has exceeded my expectations thus far. 2.6.0 was rough in comparison on my machine, with many buttons inaccessible and features unavailable. I am running Leopard on a MacBook Pro and this release runs much, much faster and cleaner on my laptop then Gimp 2.4 did on a good day. Text rendering is more streamlined and filters are definitely running fast and smooth. I will continue exploring the new features and will comment if any troubles arise. Lydia

I really appreciate your efforts! thank you very much Simone,
Tina

sorry for the pain with the current situation of Gimp on Macs. It's a pitty that it just came to this situation. I don't want to recall the discussions on wilber-loves-apple, but as I'm one of the developers who did most of the initial way how Gimp was built on WLA, the project is somehow still continuing, despite the new URL...

As I never wanted to take over the lead role in providing packages in the first place, the page started as a small site, documenting my efforts. Now, as WLA seems to be down, I'll try to translate the pages. I can drop you a line when it's done.

Again, sorry, for all the circumstances.

Just to let you know that the GIMP port on MacPorts has been upgraded to 2.6.1.

See http://www.macports.org

I really appreciate your efforts! thank you very much Simone,

the pages are now translated to english. So, is there a chance that you'll place a link on gimp.org's download pages to point to either ot http://gimp.lisanet.de or to the sourceforge project site http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimponosx ?

Yeah, I can do that.

Would you mind to fix the spelling of GIMP on your web pages? The application is called "GNU Image Manipulation Program", or short "GIMP", not "Gimp". Thanks.
