    It is always sad when an association of people helping other people has to close down. This was apparently the case of the &quot;Gruppo Utenti GNU/Linux Vicenza&quot; (GNU/Linux User Group of Vicenza) who announced their closure: https://lugvi.it/2026/08/18/il-lugvicenza-non-e-piu-associazione/ 😥 Thanks to them anyway for redirecting parts of their funds towards GIMP upon closing! 💌 They got in touch with us when doing so, so it deserved a shoutout!

    What’s your favourite add-on or plug-in or script or filter for use with #GIMP ? If you could choose up to three, what would they be? Can you post an image of the result? #filtersOnFriday #GIMP

    We have talentful contributors roaming our trackers all the time. One of the very active contributor we have lately is balooii, who also ends up being a skilled software archeologist! 🤠 One of his last fun project was building #GIMP 0.54 from 1996 in a Flatpak package (making it runnable on a modern Linux system). This was the last version using the Motif toolkit (before the GIMP authors created #GTK). More here: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/254-commit-graph/35564#miscellaneous And here: ht...

    A few months ago, we warned that malevolent people were buying Google ads leading people to fake #GIMP websites to trick them into downloading malware. Apparently this is still continuing to this day (as were reported to us). Google is still not blocking these fake ads despite the many reports and articles which happened for months now. 😓 Be careful and always make sure where you download your software from. Also the GIMP project doesn&amp;#39;t buy ads! https://floss.social/@mithrandir@defcon...

    RE: https://post.lurk.org/@lgm/116368035956380848 Our project, #GIMP, believes in the community, sharing and collaborating to make a great creative ecosystem together. This is also why we have sponsored #LGM many times across the years. We would like to encourage other creative FLOSS projects to sponsor LGM, if you can afford it! This call obviously also extends to any corporation using Free Software! 🤗

    For those who wondered, yes, the “news” about GIMP finally supporting EGA 16-colour mode was an April Fool joke, along with the new memory-efficient 0-bit coluor mode. #GIMP #AprilFools #april_fools #AprilFoolsDay
