If I want GIMP I go to

http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

The thing that is prominent there is

**Download GIMP 2.6.10 – Installer for Windows XP SP2 or later**

That is what I click on. Obvious and clear.

Except it is not clear. It does not say that this is a partial download - that 
the help is missing. It does not say that the help is accessible by clicking 
another link.

So the exact change I'd like to see is the addition of

**Download GIMP 2.6.10 help files – Installer for Windows XP SP2 or later**


I'm not stupid, but I did not realise that to do a complete GIMP installation I 
needed to get off-site. There are plenty of people less competent than I - really ;)

If you believe that in fact it is clear enough, then why is the absence of help 
files apparently seen as a common problem for Windows users?
