The trouble with Grokking the Gimp is that it refers to a version of
Gimp which is very much out of date. The best thing is to use the latest
help material available from the Gimp web site and to look at and listen
to some of the videos that are readily available. I strongly recommend
www.meetthegimp.org and start with video No1.
