GIMP is a raster image editing program that is suited for beginners (with a little patience) or advanced image manipulators. It is a free and open source program that has some plugins available. This is just a very brief overview of the basics of navigating Linux programs. You can find a lot of help documents on their website and a lot of people run video tutorials about how to use the program.
You can download GIMP for any platform on their website:

The new DeepinOS came out a few weeks ago and I wanted to take some time to talk about it. Despite liking Deepin when I ran it, I would suggest to keep away from it based on the forced acceptance of a EULA that has some interesting stuff near the end.
