Can I make a GIMPShop Portable?

icefox - September 27, 2011 - 3:21pm

It is a open source program and it is under GNU GPL v2 so is it possible that i can make it portable

Yes

But please bear in mind that GIMPShop is no longer in development and based on a very old version of GIMP (2.2.11).
Also, a lot of the tweaks involved in GIMPShop are really just changing existing settings in the GIMP. The only one that was unique was the single-window mode, but that's coming in the next version of GIMP (2.8 ) due out in December.
The user interface and the capabilities in the current GIMP (2.6.11) are much improved from the old 2.2.11.

I made this half-pony, half-monkey monster to please you.

To Add

What solanus said. We never did GIMPShop because it's outdated, unsupported and insanely buggy. It won't even run on most systems.

Single window mode is coming in 2.8 and you can try it out in GIMP Portable Dev 2.7.x. If you want to use the stable 2.6 branch, you can use our Photoshop layout and single window plugin.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
