The Gimp

About the class

April, 2005 will be first time MNR offers a class on the Gimp at Free Geek, but it's far from the first time he's taught the subject. The Gimp is the image editing software distributed on FreekBoxes - and used by all kinds of people to make cool pictures. This is an introductory-level class, and should be accessable for anyone who has mastered the material taught in the Freekbox Adoption Class.

Can we cancel April 19th, and add May 3rd at the end?
Sure thing, boss. If it's ok with the students. --Ideath 23:37, 30 Mar 2005 (PST)
