Chris: "And if you don't already know how to do..." Me: "Oh thank goodness!" Thank you so much for the tutorial! Really well put together.
This tutorial successfully taught me how to make memes without paying for proprietary software. Top notch, Chris. You deserve the most

It's a great program for being free but it is so unintuitive
I was learning how to use GIMP about a year ago. So many weeks of my life. I'm now starting all over again after suffering some neurological damage. 5 minutes in and I've already picked up a couple of tricks that I don't think I ever knew.
Ive seen other tutorials on YT and I like that youre through and straight to the point and you show clear examples on how to execute the features of the software. Thanks.
Thank you for this tutorial. I've been using GIMP to create images for my story videos, but I just sort of learned what functions I needed and didn't do a proper tutorial. This was helpful to understand more of what's available. If you're interested in feedback to make these vids more helpful, I'd like to offer three pieces. 1) It's often hard to see what you're clicking on because the cursor is tiny and you move it so quickly. I don't know if there's anything you can do about that, but it should would help. 2) You talked about Alpha Channels without explaining. 3) Please stop jiggling the image around randomly like at 47:38. I know it's fun, but it's just confusing in a tutorial. Thank you!
Fan freaking tastic! I've been watching a lot of tutorials lately and this by far is the best tutorial I've seen. Great job!!! I learned more in less than an about Gimp watching this than I did in an entire month of intro to graphic design trying to learn about Photoshop. ( Did that sentence makes sense? Lol) Anyway, thanks so much! Super grateful. I hope the KZread algorithms repay your kindness with throwing this video all over the place for exposure!
Thank you very much for this tutorial. I'm completely new to GIMP and wanted a short but informative overview. 10/10
Thank you! This has been the most complete and helpful tutorial on GIMP I’ve watched, and I’ve watched quite a few! It may just be the basics but you touched on just about everything needed, and the video didn’t stretch out to several hours long! Thanks so much for creating this! Very helpful! 🙏😊

How long should I take when I select and move selections from one picture to another?
Excellent video! You kept a great pace and explained well without sounding bored or condescending. Thanks very much for this!
Best tutorial I've seen and I just watched like 10 in a row trying to figure gimp out. THANK YOU!!!!
I'm so glad I found you. Tutorials have been driving me batshit. Most move to fast to follow and assume knowledge many people don't have. Excellent! Thank you!
Awesome tutorial! It helped me to understand many basic things. Thank you!
Thanks to you I just realised how I was doing it all wrong... Thank you so much for your tutorial, it's really well done, super comprehensive, really clear and well organised. Great work!
I downloaded Gimp last night with no idea how to get started. A few of the KZread videos I found taught photo editing as if the viewer already had knowledge of where all the buttons are, what they do, etc. Your video is very much appreciated. Thank you!
Recently started Twitch streaming and wanted to draw my own logo so I got the Star G640 drawing tablet. This was the best beginners tutorial possible. Thank you so much for this!
Best tutorial i've seen for Gimp so far. Thanks!
This is my second tutorial from you and it's taught me so much. Can't wait to get through your entire GIMP playlist.
Rather than being a long video littered with ads and plugging, we have a straightforward tutorial, timestamped and titled for our convenience. We truly do not deserve this man.
This is an excellent beginner's tutorial! I opened gimp and followed along using a split screen. If any of you are having trouble seeing his mouse, remember that you can zoom in on your monitor. I'm on a laptop so I can pinch to zoom in and out on what he's doing. Thank you so much for putting your time and effort into showing us how to do some of these basic and very useful skills.
Thank you! I'm a complete beginner in most techy things, but want to learn to use such tools for doing artwork. I've been asked to make illustrations for a friend's magazine article, a new experience for me, and was looking for something cheap / free, but more functional than Microsoft Paint! GIMP looks like the answer. Your clear and detailed demo and teaching, are just perfect for someone like me! I'm even listening without watching, and the way you say "over here on the left", and tell which mouse button to use - and I get it! So very clear! Fantastic teacher!

Sorry, dumb question - once you're done editing all the layers, how do you save as one complete image? Just do "Save As" and give it a name and file type?
Just found this vid this morning. Thank you for doing this! A great help and an enjoyable tutorial. 😊
That was a great tutorial! I haven’t had a chance to check yet but I hope there’s a #2 in this series. I’d love to learn more.
This is a really great tutorial video. You really are helping me dust off my very rusty GIMPing skills
thank you! cant wait to combine this and what i have learned from your davinci resolve 5h tutorial
Thank you! You have a wonderful teaching style. Even the technically challenged can navigate Gimp using your tutorials.
Thanks so much Chris. I had no idea how to start but now after watching your tutorial am good to go.
Great tutorial, although obviously I'm going to have to rewatch several times to get my head around things. I know people say Gimp is far easier to use compared to say PS, but even so there's still a lot to learn even at the basic level. Thanks again

Thank you so much for these tutorials. I use GIMP to make my graphics for my channel. I have to admit I always learn just barely enough about every software package to accomplish just what I needed. So it's great to have an overview like this.
