GIMP 2.8 on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
#1
Hello everyone,

I had to reinstall OS X on my 2006 MacBook Pro. It is limited to OS X 10.6 snow Leopard as it has a 32-bit processor.

I used to have GIMP 2.8. I can't remember where I found a 32-bit build (maybe unofficial) but now I can't find it anywhere. 2.6 is running fine but I would like 2.8.

I am about to start teaching a graphic design course at the college in which I work, the computers there also have 10.6.8 and I would like to incorporate GIMP. Version 2.8 would be preferable to 2.6.

Can anyone tell me where to find a 32-bit build of 2.8 for OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard?

Thanks in advance!

Not many (none) OSX users around here to give advice. I use linux

You probably have already looked here, the lisanet.de old files, only place I know

https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimpono...20Leopard/

Are they 32 bit - do not know

A little look and https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimpono...ard/2.8.6/ a 32 bit one there

Thanks very much rich2005, I will try that one tonight.

I have Linux Mint on this macbook too (which I prefer) but I will be demonstrating various software through a smartboard and want everything to match the interface the students are using (they have macs).

Cheers
