Re: got GIMP. . . but wat now?
wow...that seems really hard. and I'm sorry that you got lost with this GIMP thing that you are talking about. I'm not sure what it is, or even how to use it...all i know is Paint shop pro. Im sorry i really cant help......but if I find someone that can I'll send them your way.

paintshop looks nice and very user friendly but. i dont have the money :(
Re: got GIMP. . . but wat now?
I was the same when i first started out with GIMP until I came across this wonderful site:
GIMPTalk.com - Ultimate gimp tutorials and community forum
Don't forget to check out the resource forum for some begginer tutorials
Trust me, once you get to know the basic - it not hard ^^
happy Gimping

Heheheh, guess _gwenbie_ beat me to it. XD
Seriously, gimptalk.com is probably the #1 place to get info and tutorials on GIMP. There's a lot you can learn from there.
If not then there are many other sites that offet good advice. I dont have any specific one in mind but just try google and search for something.
As for other stuff for GIMP I say that dafont.com is the best place get fonts to use for GIMP and devianArt has a VERY NICE selection of brushes.
FYI: If you install too much fonts and brushes it'll seriously kill the start up time for GIMP, especially if you have a cheap PC (like me. XP) I've got over 1000 brushes and fonts EACH so it takes a few minutes for my GIMP to start...
