I've got both the install version of Gimpshop and GIMP Portable on my pc. I've been trying for a couple of hours to get the GIMP Animation Package (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=121075) installed, but since both versions of GIMP don't write their install path to the registry the GAP won't install. I don't know how to do this since I really wanna use the animation package and I preferably don't wanna install the full version of GIMP and GTK. Any solutions?
I spent some time figuring out how to get RAW files opening in GIMP Portable. This is what I've got to work.
Download UFRaw http://ufraw.sourceforge.net - Direct download of Windows for dummies install - http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=127649&filename=...
I installed this onto my Windows box into a temporary location.
D:\UFRAW
Copy the files D:\UFRAW\bin\* to Portable:\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\gimp\bin\
I try to download on sourceforge but i can't.
Please send me this one.

Is there any 1.x version of portable GIMP?
Thanx for any answer
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
lists the path to where users store their windows shell folder data.(desktop, startmenu, my documents, application data, favourites, local settings, etc)
Gimp appears to have a home and desktop shortcut hardcoded to look to C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\ for the home icon, but shouldn't the "Home" icon be the windows equivalent "My Documents" and link to wherever that is in the registry key mentioned above?
Hello everyone.
I thought I'd share a quick fix I figured out, as it doesn't look like anyone else has come across this issue yet. I've been digging around for the last hour trying to figure out how to stop GIMP (running on a thumbdrive) from popping up multiple errors regarding a missing file:
Something about the component failing to initialize, I apologize for not copying it down exactly. The errors would pop up whenever I tried to edit any text in a dialog box ("New File" for example).
The file is specific to IBM/Lenovo (I'm on a T42 Thinkpad at work). Searching around, I found this link:
On launch from the Portable Apps Suite, Direct from a USB drive, or from my computer's hard drive - even after multiple restarts and reinstalls of the program. I continues to lock on extension_script_fu - any help would be much appreciated - here's a screenshot of it.

Hello,
I've noticed popups on any computer that my portable apps suite is running on and haven't been able to find any discussion of that in the forums here. Is this something that I just have to deal with. None of the computers have experienced popup trouble before or continue to do so w/o my device plugged in.
I realize that another option is that the popups are coming from my device but not part of the portable apps suite.
Anyway, I ran a spyware detection on my device and it flagged the following file in the portable gimp folder. Is this a legitimate part of portable gimp or should I delete it?
Hello,
During GIMP Portable 2.2.12 multilingual installation I've got a Warning message from my local system virus scanner "AntiVir" that downlad package "GIMP_Portable_2.2.12_multilingual.exe" contain following Trojaner -> TR/Dldr.VB.ags!!!
I deleted this file with AntiVir.
Next I started Gimp without trouble.
So I think and I hope that it works, but I could'nt say it definitely.
Greetingz.
