Sigh. All major commercial Linux distributors in the English speaking world include the GNU Image Manipulation Program. Most of them even print the acronym on the box or mention it prominently in the product description. If you have a look at the IT section of any major book store, you will find books about GIMP. I think you are by far overestimating the derogatory impact.
