Installing the GIMP on Windows APPENDIX B (Web site counters)
Installing the GIMP on Windows APPENDIX B Coaxing the GIMP onto most Windows computers is a very simple two-step process: first download and install GTK+, and then download and install the GIMP. Both are available from the same site. Everything should go fine if you have Windows NT or later. GIMP 2.2 will work on Windows 98 and ME (though neither platform was officially supported), but the newer versions of GTK+, needed for GIMP 2.4, no longer work on these platforms. Windows 95 users may be able to use GIMP 2.0 (read on for details). Don t forget to read Appendix F (First Startup) after you re done with the installation. In this appendix, you ll find the following: The Quick Start Version Getting the GIMP for Windows Installing GTK+ Installing the GIMP Cleaning up The Quick Start Version 1. First, point your browser to: http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html 2. Download GTK+ 2 for Windows (this is normally the first download link). 3. While you re there, download The Gimp for Windows (the second link). 4. Navigate to your download folder and double-click the gtk+[version]setup.zip. This will launch an installer. Follow the directions. 5. Double-click gimp[version]setup.zip and follow the directions again. It s probably best to let it install a desktop shortcut. 6. Double-click on the GIMP icon to start it (and see Appendix F, First Startup ).
