GIMP 3.0 RC3 Released
-
Can you finally draw a circle?
-
Circles aren't even real, man. Its just a state of mind.
-
They have shape tools on the roadmap for this free image manipulation app, until then we'll have to use the two-step method of stroking a circular selection or use a more dedicated drawing app.
In any case GIMP 3.0 is a huge rewrite under the hood and seems to be attracting more contributors now, which is a good sign.
-
Can't wait to update gimp from terribly out-dated to somewhat out-dated.
-
You mean an infinite polyhedron? Are you out of your mind?
-
Inb4 GIMP 4 comes out in time for GTK 7
-
More contributors is great. Whilst I think sticking to C will always limit its outreach somewhat I think the reliance on GTK2 was probably even worse for anyone brave enough to dive into that spaghetti mess.
-
Isnβt this what the included gfig or whatever plugin is called?
-
Wow, great. Maybe we'll have a stable 3.0 version by 2027.
-
The cynicism is well deserved. They have been on 2.99 for years.
That said, I have been using 3.0RC1 for a bit. It ships packaged with my current distro and has worked well for me. This release should be quite usable even though 3.0 has not officially shipped.

@that_leaflet Great, does a PhD in graphics still needed to edit an image like a 15s work in Paint ?
-
Shudders man, think of the implications.. What if it was aliased or something
