New to GIMP - Some basic questions. v2.10

You don't describe what you are actually doing. Gimp is a bitmap editor. Shapes and arrows are vectors.
If you dong something like editing photographs and just adding an arrow, then Gimp is the right app. If you are doing mainly shapes and arrows then a vector app like Inkscape would be better.

In Gimp, you can make your own arrow and then save it as 1) a brush or 2) a path.


Quote:There's no "personal" folder in GIMP that I'm aware of

There are a whole bunch of personal folders, called your User Profile.
For Gimp 2.10 these are found at:
C:\Users\"your name"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\....
The Folders that Ofnuts referenced point to these.
There is a Fonts folder here. You can put your font in there. Refresh fonts or restart Gimp.
