I just downloaded and installed Gimp. I was browsing the plugin repository, and downloaded a couple of plugins, but don't know how to get them installed - they are just the source files. I am running Windows XP, and used the installer provided on the Gimp web site from Jernej Simoncic. Any help would be appreciated.

When I look in the folders listed, there .exe files there. the plugin I downloaded is a .c file - how do I get it from a .c to a .exe? I looked through the .c file, and it made mention of gimptool-2.0, so maybe I should be asking where do I get it?

Thanks Scott

Since I don't have windows XP I don't know the exact directory, but when you open up gimp, choose File>Preferences then on the left hand side click on "Plug-ins" under "Folders"....in here the directories where the plugins are stored should be listed.

P.S. when you post on the list please try and have a better subject (in this case something like "plugins in windows xp" )
