Definately! I would enjoy the possibility to use my OpenID on different websites!

First Windows build for GIMP 2.5 available!

Windows users should be happy today! A first unstable development release of GIMP 2.5 is now available for the Windows operating system!

GIMP is optimized for 32 and 64 bit architecture - so there are 2 different versions available now. We've linked them in our downloads page. Also please keep in mind that if you try the unstable release please don't bother the developers with unreproducable bugs (should you encounter some).

As you might already know we have written a preview of the changes for Gimp 2.6. Have fun with the latest version of GIMP! When all the bugs are eliminated this version will finally become GIMP 2.6!

    it may run alongside the stable version or require the stable to be unistalled ?

    you can run both versions -> stable and unstable indipendently ;) so no problem

    @devv
    well ithat didn't work well on my PC,
    i mean installer worked fine but also somehow changed the stable version in a clone of 2.5.

    no big issue i just unistalled the stable and then reinstalled but using the portable version..now all is fine

    BTW
    release number of title is not correct.
    Is not a installer for 2.5.3 but for 2.5.4 (from SVN), even better the release number is reported correctly in the installer name is just the title that report a wrong one

    Thank a lot for the installer !!

    PS i refer to the "title" in the gimpuser download page

    photocomix: yes i know - i decided to use 2.5.3 because there is no real 2.5.4 snapshot - its rather a lillte newer 2.5.3 (svn) and i also didn't want to confuse linux people - they have maybe wondered why there is a 2.5.4 for windows and not for linux. thats also the reason why i only used "2.5" an no more specific version numbering in the news, heh ;) hope you understand what i mean! maybe i should have used only "gimp-2-5-windows-released" - too late now ^^

    it was not me... the windows build was made by jernej simoncic of the gimp developers team. i think he uses mingw and msys but im not totally sure.
