| "If you use GIMP, you really should take a look at this book. If I was handing out stars, I'd have to give it 5, because you really do learn how to do a lot of very cool stuff."

| "Michael J. Hammel has written a clear and thorough guide to artist techniques using the GIMP. GIMP is an open source alternative to Adobe Photoshop. I had used the GIMP minimally before I received this book and I'd never used Photoshop, but I found the instructions articulate and easy to follow. Artists, graphic designers, and photographers will all find useful information in this sumptuously illustrated text."
