GIMP is an image manipulation program. At the most sweeping level, using GIMP involves three basic steps: (1) opening images or creating new ones; (2) altering those images; (3) saving the results.

2.1.┬á Creating new Files

You can create new files in GIMP by using the following menuitem: File ΓåÆ New. This opens the Create a new image dialog, where you can modify the initial width and height of the file or using the standard values. More information about this dialog can be found in Section┬á5.2, ΓÇ£ New ΓÇ¥.
