Gimp is an open source raster graphics editor. While it cannot be used to create a vector, other programs that are available on _Space.URI computers such as CORELDraw and Inkscape are great alternatives if a vector is needed. | Gimp is an open source raster graphics editor.

***'''Fuzzy'''(Wand Icon), the last selection tool functions more like a quick Free Select tool where you just click on where you want to select and it'll select until it hits the borders of the color. It works the best with images that don't have too much anti aliasing and aren't blurry, as it may cause the Fuzzy tool to not select some sections of an image. | ***'''Fuzzy'''(Wand Icon), the last selection tool functions more like a quick Free Select tool where you just click on where you want to select and it'll select until it hits the borders of the color.
