put something on webpage about starting gimp

It is far from clear how to start gimp after using the flatpak download system. Maybe it will sort itself out after rebooting the computer but the flatpak install is rather convoluted (compared with the rather simple and very quick download of blender, say, as a compressed folder). And after it's complete there is no indication on the GIMP site of how to start it running. The old version 2.8 (installed by the ubuntu system) still runs when clicking on the icon. A search on line eventually finds other people who have run into this problem and the solution.
