Graphics & Pictures Apps Support

I'm trying to use the ps-menurc file found online to replace the menurc used in GIMP in order to give GIMP, Photoshop-like hotkeys. In the PortableGimp folder, I have found the following 3 menurc files:

DefaultData\.gimp\menurc
DefaultData\settings\menurc
gimp\etc\gimp\2.0\menurc

I have tried changing all 3 files. Whenever I open up Gimp, none of the hotkeys appear to have used any of the three above menurc files.

How do I change these without doing it all manually through the interface?

I am getting a new computer in a few months.

The operating system will be the new release of Windows 8.

Will there be any problems using GIMP?

Hello all. I'm curious if anyone else out there is having this issue.

1.) I open/extract the GIMP 2.8 portable package on my desktop
2.) Make some configuration changes (copy fonts, brushes, scripts to the appropriate paths in the child DATA folder.
3.) Test and runs great!
4.) I MOVE the whole app folder to my removable disk drive.
5.) It opens, but now all brushes are missing.
6.) Check the Preferences...Folders...Brushes directory and it is pointing to my local disk Desktop folder.

after clicking file /open the pictures show the correct size but the preview says there 1.3gb and refuses to load the thumbnails.
Saving is the same way as well says there 1.3gb or in some cases bigger which making a file under a certain size hard.
ive formatted the drive and zeroed it as well the problem is still there and also tried it on win xp and ubuntu/wine all seem to have the problem as well. i can post links to pictures of the problem if needed.

im using the latest Gimp 2.8 portable revision

I have been using GIMP portable for years. I am now using the latest version - 2.8 rev 4.
In the previous several versions, I have been able to open PDF files in GIMP. However in this version, when I try to open a PDF file I get an "unknown file type error"
Specific symptoms:
In the Portable GIMP, File>Open...
- If I select the file type filter to All Images, PDF files do not appear.
- If I search through the file type filters for Portable Document format, it does not exist.

Hello,

I am totally new to using GIMP.

I just downloaded GIMP Portable.

The set up looks different then what I expected.

Is the PortableApps site the offical site to download GIMP Portable?

Also I have been told that using the portable version would be compromising functionality?

Can someone clarify these things for me?

Thank you

Hello,

I have decided to try and learn GIMP for photo editing.

I just started looking at some of the GIMP tutorials.

Are the features in the portable version of GIMP the same as the regular version?

Thank you

I just installed GIMP on my Google Drive and my Microsoft Security Essentials flags the file 'imagemap.exe' as containing the trojan PWS:Win32/Lineage.gen!C.dam (password-stealing). I've scanned through the forums and site and have seen only one other post regarding anything similar. In their case it was Norton and the 'imagemap.exe' and 'file-compressor.exe' were flagged. I haven't seen any other info on any false positives. MSE does not flag the latter file.

"Another instance of GIMP Portable is currently closing. Please wait for it to finish before launching again."

I had just booted up, so nothing was ever running today.

Can you guys please correct this? GIMP is not "Photoshop" and should not be labeled as such. It is single-window mode not "Photoshop Layout".
It's like saying PA.Com is a U2 Drive software(Or whatever that software that comes on certain drives is;), which it is not....
I am sure that more than just one GIMP enthusiast is a little perturbed at this.
