does anybody know how to use gimp?? i downloaded it, but i know know how to use it.

Here (http://gimp.org/tutorials) are some tutorials from the GIMP site, and here (http://web-graphics-1.us/graphics-image-editing-GIMP-help.php) are some link to some more places where you can get help with using the GIMP.
If all else fails, you can use that wonderful seach engine called Google ("GIMP tutorials" or "Gimp help" would work for search terms)

thank u! :)

You're welcome. :D
