    It is really nice! What I like about it is that you can rewind the video over and over again until you get it right! By the way where can I get my free certificate on this one? Thank you very much and more power!

    Very great; it is similar to Photoshop and makes editing a favorite shot simple. And because GIMP is a special tool that is also simple to use, simple to install, and does not require becoming a premium application like other programs, this is a secondary way to edit my other photos that I may occasionally need to relay.
