New: GIMP 3.1.4: The new developer release has been released - on the way to GIMP 3.2 [2025-09-01] :: The further process is also an invitation to collaborate with the community; just as it always is in open source projects....

 

...good morning, dear community, - hello dear Friends ;)  🤩 

i just want to share this with you. . since this is a awesome new thing..

.... there's good news from the GIMP team:

The release of GIMP 3.1.4 was announced yesterday (on gimp-org & reddit) [see below]!

The GIMP developers: This version contains the first implementations of our two main points on the GIMP 3.2 roadmap:

 

One could say: 3.2 is steadily taking shape. Core improvements such as link and vector layers are now testable in version 3.1.4, while core features (theme-aware user interface, non-destructive editing, format support) were demonstrated in 3.1.2.

The new features in a nutshell:

    Link layers and vector layers.

    It also includes a number of other nice new features, bug fixes, and internal improvements.

We're excited to share these with you and get your feedback in preparation for the GIMP 3.2 release candidates.

The further process also serves as an invitation for collaboration: The aforementioned features are still in the early stages of user experience optimization. Community testers are crucial – your feedback on stability, usability, and missing workflows will help improve version 3.2.

    • take your console only release and shove it. i sold my ps5 as my pc wipes the floor with it, at the point of sale i didn't envisage being ignored by one of the biggest and wealthiest developers ever because they simply can't be bothered to support a loyal user base. as i only played the single player versions, i'll be obtaining this "free" when it eventually reaches PC as an afterthought to pay for their christmas party drinks in 2029. screw me, screw you cockstar
    • Apart from Early Hiccups on Windows 11 on first install on October 6th 2021 on my old Intel 10700 daily use Desktop PC at the time, used to have issue with Bluetooth suddenly no longer working and only fix back then was always another clean install--then would work for a while. Transition to 2024 when i decided to finally upgrade that system for better support for Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 6 later on, opted for next daily use Gaming Desktop AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and Radeon 7800XT OC 16GB. No major problems at all with this desktop, OS was clean installed way back on 10/8/2025 not long after 25H2 released. Overall i've been happy with Windows 11 Pro from the start, even minor little quirks didn't sway me. Heck i even use Windows 8 and upgraded immediately upon release back then on my old HP P6-2133W Desktop, and while the specs of that machine didn't give me top notch performance--i still was able to do what i wanted to, without too many slowdowns. Windows ME i didn't use on any of my personal systems back in the day, kept those systems on 98SE til XP released, and grabbed that immediately on release date. Kept XP til Vista Released then upgraded immediately, kept Vista til Windows 7 released, then updated immediately again
    • Broadcom: dreadful company who is destroying VMware by pricing it out of the market.
    • To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
