GIMPshop
GIMPshop is essentially Gimp with some cosmetic changes. The Gimp’s menu structure and naming conventions are a constant source of frustration for users accustomed to Photoshop.

"It has been five years, the software has stagnated (due in no small part to my becoming discouraged by this one profiteer who trumped me, stole much of my traffic and bumped my site down to the second result when you search for "Gimpshop"). I assumed the guy would just give it up as I sadly let the project stagnate, but that hasn't happened." | Source: http://ask.metafilter.com/144788/What-are-my-intellectual-property-rights-here

Comments and Reviews
gimpshop.com is owned by a greedy domain squatter and NOT the developer. Please have everyone you know update their bookmarks.
I actually KNOW the owners and investors (and designers) and I got a bit in there, but anyway, I heard it was actually completely the opposite. Goodness, what has this world come to? Well, best of luck!
Just so anyone reading the comments knows: the website for GIMPshop has been fixed. It now points you to a Sourceforge repository, where the real GIMPshop can be found, complete with GPL-licensed source code.
Thanks HackedChicken. I don't think this is needed any longer though. Gimp now has a single-window interface option built-in.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I'm aware, that was the only feature differentiating the two. Gimp should suffice on its own now, I think.
Bundles adware and does not make the source code available. Also, the guy that runs gimpshop.com is a deceitful little scoundrel that steals to make a quick buck. I edited this entry to reflect that this software includes adware and is NOT open source. Hopefully the changes get made. Also, whoever is linking to Scott's Twitter and (now defunct) personal website need to stop doing that as Scott wants nothing more to do with GIMPshop.
Well, as far as I've noticed there seems to be no Linux version for this app, so why does it seem to state that there is one?
there IS a linux version; you just need to scroll down to the bottom of the page to find it: http://gimpshop.com/downloads
Oh, I feel so stupid now... Kudos to you kind sir for pointing it out and I shall most definitely put much more attention to my browsing websites!
and btw, the latest gimp version (2.8) has a "single-window" mode so you don't need gimpshop http://www.tux-planet.fr/public/images/screenshots/software/gimp/gimp-2.8/gimp-2.8.jpg
Single-window mode - that is so nice! Thanks for sharing!

shanks? :)
It was killed by the guy who runs gimpshop.com, it's a sad story. Read about it here.
Makes following tutorials in the GIMP documentation impossible since it changes around the UI. Can't follow Photoshop tutorials, though, still too different. The website is also REALLY spammy.
