The GIMP Resources and Tutorials
The GIMP, or GNU Image Manipulation Program is a free, open-source image editing application for photo retouching, painting, compositing, and image creation. The GIMP originated as a program for UNIX and X, but has been ported to many other platforms including Linux, Macintosh, and Windows. Often lauded as the "free Photoshop," GIMP does have an interface and features similar to Photoshop. Here you can find links to tutorials and other resources for the GIMP user community.

From Scott Moschella: "What I've done is renamed and reorganized GIMP's tools, options, windows, and menus to closely resemble Adobe Photoshop's menu structure and naming conventions. Many of the menu options and even whole menus were recreated to faithfully reproduce a Photoshop-like experience. After running my GIMPshop hack, you'll find that Photoshop and the GIMP are strikingly similar."
