Make GIMP look like FREE Photoshop part 1 (Customizing GIMP)

pixelmove.com

In this video I will be showing you how to customize GIMP’s interface to look more like Photoshop.

I cannot show you docking. Here’s a link to a animated picture that may help you further with understanding how to drag and drop docks in and how to dock them together.

Make GIMP look like FREE Photoshop part 2 (Customizing GIMP)

pixelmove.com

This is part 2 of “Customising GIMP to look like FREE Photoshop”.
In this video I will be showing you how to undo the steps you did in part 1 in case you want to revert back. And if you don’t, I’ll be showing some more changes and how to change the keyboard shortcuts to match them with the ones of Photoshop.

The folder you need to look for from the first bit of this video is
on WinXP
C:\Documents and Settings\user\.gimp-2.6

Where it says user that is where on your computer it says your name.

On another operating system just search for the folder
.gimp-2.6
on the disk you have installed GIMP on.

In this folder there is a file called
sessionrc

delete this or save it on your desktop and then delete it.
BUT only if you want the default GIMP interface back!
