Thanks to the Gimpchat forums for helping me figure out how to perfect these videos. Come check us out and join our community at http://www.gimpchat.com
In this tutorial, I explain how to use gimp for beginners. This video explains how to adjust the exposure of a photo using gimp, and also explains how to make changes to the color of a photo including color correction using gimp.
This tutorial was made using Gimp 2.6. If you are running a different version some functions and methods, although slight, may be different. I recommend using the newest version of Gimp.

Wacom Tablet

In my Gimp Tutorials, I frequently use Wacom Tablets. Here is an awesome wacom tablet I recommend using.
A Wacom tablet will enhance your GIMP photo editing experience by offering a pressure-sensitive touch that translates to varying transparency when making brush strokes in GIMP.

Gimp Reference Manual

I highly recommend getting this Gimp book to use as a reference manual in conjunction with my tutorials. This book will explain how the tools I use work. My tutorials will give you practical applications for the tools shown in this book.
