Try to launch it from Terminal and look for error messages. Say, like, typing a line like this at the prompt (note that “Gimp.app” is a wild guess): /Applications/MacPorts/Gimp.app/Contents/MacOS/Gimp.app (use the TAB key to trigger autocompletion) Also, did you install X11? I’m not 100% certain, but last time I checked GIMP still needed X11 to run. V.
