I fired it up and it just worked. I already had X11 installed so that wasn't an issue. Now I'm just back to the same thing you have - a scary learning curve of this program. From now on, when I watch "Meet the Gimp" vidcast I'll have my copy open and work along. Dom, that was a great suggestion. I fired it up and it just worked.

I have installed it but haven't used it (whats the point of that?) You'll need X11 installed. Try looking at Gimp.app http://gimp-app.sourceforge.net/ – might be what you need.

There's always been a Windows installer package of the recent versions. It's quite a shame that the Mac version isn't that easy to get going considering the typical Mac user.
