I've only started using Gimp recently, since around the time of the release
of version 2, and IMO the interface *is* useable and the program itself is
excellent and pretty stable. AFAIK there's no other digital image
manipulation program with anything like it's capabilities - for a comparable
program your looking at PSP or Photoshop.

Windows 9x/ME operating systems are no longer supported, you can install
The Gimp on Win9x/ME anyway, but don't complain if something doesn't
work. from

The GIMP 1.2 should run on Windows 95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP. It is
recommended to use an NT-based version of Windows (NT4, 2000 or XP) for
GIMP 2.0. from

anyone have any problems with the new version of Gimp for Win on 98SE?

What exactly is the GTK+ 2 runtime environment?

A cross-platform graphics & GUI programming toolkit.

Any concerns with it?

It doesn't always look & feel like "normal" Windows applications...
