The program can accomplish essential image workflow steps such as resizing, editing, and cropping photos, combining multiple images, and converting between different image formats. Gimp has largely been critized for being a replcament for Adobe Photoshop, but the creaters deny this and say that the program is not designed to replace Photoshop but instead the “product vision for GIMP is to become a high-end graphics application for the editing and creation of original images, icons, graphical elements of web pages and art for user interface elements” according to Gimp.
