What is GIMP?
GIMP is a popular raster graphics editing software application. It offers many advanced built-int tools for professional digital photo editing. It supports layers and many sophisticated solutions for creating, editing, and duplicating images based of selected parameters or configurations. GIMP also supports plugins, extensions, and scripts which can be used to enhance its capabilities even further.

The primary purpose of our website is to provide the user with a list of software programs that support a particular file extension, as well as that help to convert them to another format. GIMP supports 103 different file extensions, that's why it was found in our database. The following tables provide information about the association of GIMP with file extensions. If the GIMP program can be used to convert the file format to another one, such information will also be provided.
What can I use this information for?
This information is especially useful when looking for a way to open a specific file. If you already have GIMP installed on your computer, you can check which file extensions it supports and look for the data you need in this specific format (or to what format you should convert the data so that you can open them in the GIMP).
I do not have a GIMP yet. Where should I get it?
By far the most safe way is to download GIMP directly from the developers's website. If you are going to download the GIMP from a website that offers a database of downloadable software, you have to reckon with the fact that when you install it on your computer, you will also install the unwanted extras. Please, pay special attention to this.
I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
