<p>The GNU Image Manipulation Program (<a href="https://www.gimp.org/">GIMP</a>) is Community-driven Free software for high-end image creation and manipulation. Last year GIMP celebrated its 30th birthday!</p> <p>In March 2025 the GNU Image Manipulation Program team team was proud to release <a href="https://www.gimp.org/news/2025/03/16/gimp-3-0-released/">GIMP 3.0</a>. This represented the culmination of 7 years of hard work done by members of the GIMP community. Many major and long-awaited features were introduced including non-destructive editing, multi-layer operations, infinite canvas, more advanced colour management and much more.</p> <p>The GIMP team had made a decision that starting with the 3.0 release the length of development cycles would be reduced. This has been followed, and has lead to the next big release - the 3.2.</p> <p>Today a core developer who joined the team within the past year presents the latest release of GIMP, takes a look at what's being worked on by the members of the GIMP community, and shares the experience of becoming a GIMP developer. You can look forward to hearing something about all the file formats GIMP aims to support, full CMYK mode, improved text support, hardware-accelerated image operations and more!</p>
