Graphics & Pictures Apps Support

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.

F-Secure has long since fixed the last, Avast-style problem; but this morning it went and "found" a virus in one of the GIMP .exe files:

2006-11-28  06:44:43-04:00  F-Secure Anti-Virus  1.3.6.1.4.1.2213.11.1.12
Malicious code found in file
J:\PORTABLEAPPS\GIMPPORTABLE\APP\GTK\BIN\GSPAWN-WIN32-HELPER.EXE.
 Infection: Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.aqs
 Action: The file was renamed.

If this file is the same one used in the non-Portable version of The GIMP, I'm sure it's already been reported...but if not, you'll want to pass word along to F-Secure.

The specific issue :

gimp-2.2.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point libintl_sprintf could not be located in the dynamic link library intl.dll

This comes up as soon as I try to run portable gimp, I get no other errors and nothing pops up on screen, not even the start up image.

I am running Windows XP and just downloaded the file today and installed it to the local hard drive.

Many thanks to John T. Haller for making an efficient, portable version of The GIMP.

I've installed GIMP Portable to my flash drive and everything works except the help file. I'm told it's not installed and I can't seem to find how to rectify that situation. This happens for other apps also. Can anyone help?

Ok, I've searched the site and cannot find it - the .ini file that takes the startup screen off of the GIMP, and therefore speed it up. Please can someone post the link to it?

Thanks

I can't remember where to put user fonts. There is a directory to put fonts to make them accessible portably, but I accidentally deleted that directory. I think the answer is somewhere on gimp.org, but I can't find it. And yes, I did search before posting.

Am I doing something wrong / Am I burning a data CD wrong?

I couple days ago I downloaded Portable GIMP, installed and ran it once on the hard drive (as per the instructions "Running From a CD (GIMP Portable Live)"). But when I went to burn it to CD, there was a complaint about the folder structure being too deep (beyond ~8 deep). Am I doing something wrong in my CD burning? I had Portable GIMP directly in the root folder (not in a Programs subfolder).

The full-fledged GIMP package, with all the plugins and stuff, takes awfully long to load, and most those aren't really usefull for the standard MS Windows plug-and-play user (which I believe to be the target audience for most of the stuff in PortableApps.com). So, why not release a lightweight GIMP package with only the essential plugins and stuff? I tweaked the installation in my pen-drive, and now its load time is pretty decent...

Just to make it clear, I'm not saying the full package should be dumped. I just think having two parallel versions (full/slow-loading and incomplete/not-so-slo
