Well... I've managed to get my graphics tab to work ok in GIMP, although I 
don't really find it very intuative to use. So far I've managed to resize a 
load of jpgs, but not much else.

I should point out I'm no artist, I just need a tool to resize, rotate, and 
sometimes enhance images from my digital camera, so that I can stick them on 
websites. Of course, it'd be cool to know how some of the other features work, 
and where they lurk.

PS Are we any nearer setting a date for this months meeting?
