  78.       So, you have GIMP installed on your computer, you need to make a quick
  79.       change to an image for some project, but don't want to learn about
  80.       computer graphics right now in order to get the image changed. Totally
  81.       understandable. GIMP is a powerful image manipulator with many
  82.       options and tools. However, it is quick and somewhat intuitive (after a
  83.       time) for the small jobs as well. Hopefully, these quickies will help
  84.       you with your quick problem and help you to stay friends with The GIMP
  85.       and ready for its more complex tools and methods later, when you have
  86.       the time and inspiration.

  89.       A couple of words about the images used here. The came from APOD

  96.       All you should need to know to start here is how to find your image and
  97.       open it.
