I hate to disagree with you, there are GIMP packages which include
GTK and install it before The GIMP as such is installed, much like
GAIM packages which include the GTK runtime or not, and you download
accordingly.
Can you provide a link?
Two .exe to run is easy enough: http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html
Yep, as I mentioned earlier, the GTK+2 runtime & actual GIMP installer. I'm not
saying it's rocket science, but it is complicated by involving two separate
packages *plus* all of the jargon written on the page. It *could* be easier.
I recently introduced GIMP on Windows to a complete microserf (does not
know anything beside Visual Studio and is a newbie in using graphic
software) who had no problem installing and learning it (with some
lessons from http://gug.sunsite.dk/?page=tutorials), she even managed to
produce a decent looking website with GIMP made graphics.
Again though, a technical user leading a more non-technical user....
