I am having an issue using GIMPshop, would you please tell me how to

To my knowledge, there is little to no documentation available for gimpshop; you will wish to obtain help from Photoshop references or seek assistance in Photoshop user forums.

If you wish to use the GIMP, I would suggest that you can use the Palette Editor to create custom palettes (they are automatically saved when you exit the editor). To access the Palette Editor, use the "File->Dialogs->Palettes" to see a list of the available palettes. The buttons along the bottom of the window permit you to, among other things, create a new custom palette (or you can duplicate an existing one to edit).

Once you are in the editor, click on the "New Color" button to create a new color. You can modify an existing color by double-clicking on a color to bring up a color chooser window.

You might also find the "Import Palette..." command (which is available from the Palettes dialog) useful for extracting palettes from images and gradients.

Once again, my suggestions are for the GIMP, not gimpshop (which I have never used). Gimpshop has intentionally foregone the standard interface used by the GIMP and you will have to seek help in places other than the GIMP-User mailing list for any further questions you might have about gimpshop.

You should contact the GIMPshop support forums (or their development team if you can't find a support forum for it) to ask support questions on that product. This is a mailing list for a different project called GIMP.

[On a related note, it's not entirely this person's fault that he ended up looking for support here. IMHO GIMPshop should not have been named with 'GIMP' in its name, even though it was well meant. This is one of the reasons why trademarks are used so that people don't get confused like this. Both GIMP (different UI) _and_ Photoshop (different behaviour) fora are unlikely to be able to help.]

Kind regards,
