GIMPshop overview
Note: GIMPshop is no longer under development and the developer provides no support for it.
GIMPshop is a Gimp modification that features menu layouts, dialogs and naming conventions similar to those found in Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop users should feel right at home using Gimpshop. The Gimp, on which Gimpshop is based, is a powerful, open-source image editing application. For more info on the Gimp see this page. Gimpshop is essentially the same program with some cosmetic changes.
What’s new in version 389
Note: Although Finder indicates that this is version 389, the developer states that this is version 2.2.11
- Release notes were unavailable when this listing was updated.

Version: 2.2.11
GIMPshop can be installed on Snow Leopard, but you have to replace some libraries that don't work with the new version of X11.

Version: 2.2.11
This app does not currently work under Snow Leopard 10.6.3/X11 2.3.5. It attempts to cache fonts and then crashes.

Version: 2.2.11
Just so you guys know, version 2.2.11 won't start under Snow Leopard either.

Forget Gimpshop under Leopard for the time being. It crashes every time. Ironically, this is actually an improvement, as since Leopard/X11 change, it wouldn't even launch except for parking its icon in the dock. I blame this on the new X11 as included in Leopard.
Just got (finally) the 2.4 PPC version of Gimp running on my 1.2ghz iBook after the 10.5.2 and x.org X11-1.2.4 updates, so I will be using that while I watch for a Leopard-usable version of Gimpshop, hopefully based on the 2.4.x Gimp.
Apple doesn't appear to have done a whole lot to assure X11 functionality under 10.5.2. Guess they expect you to spend $600 for P-shop. Ain't happenin'...

Version: 2.2.11
After 'caching fonts...' for awhile, it states that "Gimp-2.2 has unexpectedly quit". I've heard that this has to do with Leopard's new X11 implementation, to which a solution is posted at:

I must be mucking something up though, since it still gives me the same error afterwords.
