Hey everyone. I read the MS Paint thread just a lil bit ago, and it mentioned the gimp, so I went to try to download it. Well the site doesn't give much detail on downloading instructions, and I'm reealllyyy confused. I downloaded something, "gtk+-2.2.4-20040124-setup", where it gives me a bunch of stuff, but never the real program. What else do I need to download and then what do I need to do just to get the program running? :idea:

Okay - I used the link, and that's where I was before - and I downloaded FTP for ftp.arnes.si. But when I download it, I unzip all the stuff but I can't get the program still. What am I doing wrong?

you need to download the second thing, not the first. I downloaded it and it's working fine but at first I was trying to download the first thing they offer but I think that's just an addon.
Download the one that says "The Gimp for windows"

Wow, i'm really sorry i'm so confused with this. I'll try to detail what I did, and clarify what you said to do...
This is what I did:
I went to the link on the other thread, http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/stable.html
and then I went under the GTK+ 2 for Windows (version 2.2.4-20040124) part
and I clicked "download" under FTP next too ftp.arnes.si.
It downloaded, and I unzipped all the files, but I can't seem to find where to open the ACTUAL program. Is this all I have to download?

You're downloading the wrong one, go underneath that one, the one that says
"The Gimp for Windows (version 2.0.0) "
