Re: Windows GIMP questions
GIMP is a graphics program like PhotoShop, Corel PhotoPaint, Paint Shop Pro, etc. It is good, it is free, and it will run under Linux. Make a Google search and you will find their website.

[..] >Is there anyone who could tell me how to do this perspective adjustment? Open the `Tool options' dialog for the transform tool by either double- clicking the Transform tool button or - choosing File -> Dialogs -> Tool options. Next, choose the desired transform type. Next, move the mouse cursor to the picture you want to distort, single click the left button and move the corners around.
