Strengths: Filters, and the massive amounts of tools one can use, powerful, lots of preferences (i.e. how many processors do you want it to use; max-min cache settings) its free... Open-source
Weaknesses: Uses lots of RAM, on setup it doesn't tell you that it will install about 16 different languages thus causing the final file size to be 67.5 MB opposed to the setup without the translations for 34.5 MB. always click the "Customize" you will save a little on disk space.... also the pictures have a default cache of 200+ MB. I lowered mine (at the expense of lower quality pics) to about 75MB.
Overall Evaluation: This is a great tool (if i had a blazing fast processor!) this is a tool for the true amateur photographer in all of us. Before i downloaded this i used Paint.NET, i think i will try this for a little more and if i dont use it much i will be going back to Paint.NET.

Strengths: Very Powerful. Advanced interface. Excellent user base with ample tutorials. Thorough documentation.
Weaknesses: Used to have to install the GTK, however version 2.4 no longer has that requirement. Portable version (2.4) crashed on me once during use, but have not had that problem with the normal install. Not 16 bit color, not multi-threaded for color. The 16 bit color will be part of the next major overhaul. Don´t know about the multiple processor/multithreaded future. If that is important, Paint.NET is very fast on dual-core+ processors, but it is still 8-bit color. Krita is 16 bit color, but very simple compared to the above two.
Overall Evaluation: I have been using it for a long time. I have only scratched the surface of its capabilities. Warp sharp is a fantastic sharpening plugin, better than most programs. I will never buy another photo editor. If

Strengths: Easier layout to learn than Photoshop, killer features, low low price! (free!) it's open source, so if you want a feature that it doesn't have, you can add it.
Weaknesses: you have to install the gtk runtime before installing the gimp or it won't work.
Overall Evaluation: I love it. It's on all my linux computers by default, it runs on mac as well. why pirate photoshop when there's a better tool..... free.
