What it is
GIMP is an open-source image editor for photo retouching and compositing. It covers most of the concepts you know from Photoshop — layers, masks, colour correction, brushes — which is why it is widely used as a replacement for paid software. Free for personal and business use.
When to pick this
When you need Photoshop-level editing without the cost. For simple retouching and collages, PhotoScape is quicker; for drawing, Krita.
Details
Layers and masks
Stack images and hide parts to composite them. Because the original is untouched, changes stay reversible.
Supported formats
Opens psd and saves png, jpg, tiff and webp. Complex psd files may not reproduce every effect exactly.
Learning curve
With this much functionality, finding things takes time at first. It is overkill if you only need to crop a few photos and adjust brightness.
