Books - they know things

I had ordered a GIMP book from Amazon a few months ago, but it never showed up. Amazon finally just canceled the order. I looked elsewhere for it, but it was only available used at prices well north of $100. Odd, that. Using man-budgeting, this meant that I now had $100 to spend on GIMP books, so I bought two.

  1. I'm not a big fan of playing with images but that, black and white backgrou, full colour subject could change my mind. I particularly like the Cub. Something about it being a piece of B&W history but still living and flying today in full colour

  4. these look amazing!! I was never a huge fan of coloring parts of b&w photos either, but there's something kinda fun about it! Plus some turn out to look pretty cool :) I love the Cub photo!
