Can I launch a native app from a Wine app?

The GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program, a sophisticated image and photo editor. Ubuntu 12.04 includes Gimp version 2.6 available in ubuntu-software-center, but it’s a little out of date.

GIMP 2.6.9 is released. For newbies, GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. As you can infer from the name, GIMP is completely open source and is also free as in free beer. GIMP is pitched as the open source alternative for Adobe Photoshop. GIMP is cross platform and yes, GIMP has a Windows version also.

I need to add bookmarks as text to my images (if possible with certain levels of opacity), currently I have GIMP, Xpaint and Gnome paint drawing editor. But all these are not good to simply adding a text and decide their colour, bold / italic, font and location with ease. GIMP does somewhat, but I felt it quite pro for such a basic function.

Following on from falldown's GIMP tutorial on a glass text effect, I've used the method to produce some effects for a GIMP splash screen.If you d/l the image, resize it to whatever you want, and put it in /user/.gimp-2.x/splashes (create the directory if it doesn't exist). GIMP will pick a file at random to display at startup

I am running ubuntu 12.04 64 bit on 4-core cpu and what i am facing is that when i open a .psd file or a heavy .xcf/.psd file my gimp sends me a "force quit" message. I am using gimp for professional image editing so please tell me what i should do. Thanks

Less than one week after the release of version 2.6.9 of GIMP, the GIMP project has issued the tenth point update to the 2.6.x branch of GIMP to fix a bug that caused the open source image editing tool to crash when clicking on a scroll bar...
