GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), Google Draw and OpenOffice Draw


GIMP is a software that has tools used for retouching and editing, free-form drawing, resizing, cropping, photo-montages, converting between different image formats, and more specialised tasks. GIMP is like Photoshop but they are different in some cases depend on the needs of the user.

To use GIMP, you need to download it first and it is free! Feel free to have a visit to its website, http://www.gimp.org/.


You may also make a drawing using Google Doc. Go to docs.google.com and sign in with your google account. And then, click on Create ---> Drawing just like in the picture below.


Your screen will appear like this:


And you may now proceed with your drawings. You may use the drawing tools (in the red box in the picture above) to draw using your own creativity.

I have done with my drawing. What about yours? ;)



And the last 2D Graphic Editing Software is OpenOffice.


To use this software, you need to install it first. And it is free, just like GIMP. You may install it here, http://www.openoffice.org/download/.

OpenOffice is a software suite for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. It is available in many languages and works on all common computers. It stores all your data in an international open standard format and can also read and write files from other common office software packages.

Well, now, you may choose which software that you prefer the most to edit your graphics. And as for me, I would prefer Microsoft Paint more as it is easier and more interesting. You have your own view ;)

Till we meet again on the next entry. Happy reading guys!
