Spreadshop Tools: GIMP

Does your design need some refining? Do you want to create simple text designs? Then opt for a free program that provides a long-list of functions.

GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) allows you to

Create and adapt text designs

Create simple shapes

Create freehand designs

Remove unwanted background

Ultimately, GIMP works a whole lot like Photoshop… except it is a free and open-source program. Besides the standard functions, you can also download a number of extensions that will help take your images to a whole new level.

You can learn more via this tutorial:

GIMP isn’t only useful for optimizing the designs that you’ll be selling to customers. Rather, you can also rely on the program to create social media ads and graphics that can be used on your Spreadshop start page, About Us page, and anywhere else that requires an image.

Go check GIMP out for yourself, and then head back here and let us know what you think! Also, if you come across any other YouTube tutorials, feel free to post them in the comments below!
