What exactly is GPS?

---

GPS is a collection of brushes and accompanying tool presets intended to speed up repetitive tasks by avoiding the need to manually reset tool options after each change. Tool presets are a simply saved tool options, a seldom discussed but highly useful feature of the GIMP.

 

 

Looks cool I'll have to test it out. I've never really been able to get the Gimp to work very well for me. I love the fact that it's free though and I think it's an awesome way to get more people into digital art. Every time I tell someone that I work digital they think that all you do is push a button and the computer draws what ever you want it to like magic.
