#1 – Photoshop
The Particle Deposition website redirects to a site that repeatedly tries to force users to download an executable. There is no way to stop it in Firefox besides killing the process, as it will continually pop up Ok/Cancel messages.
Hey, Awesome compilation.
Congrats on reaching the front page of Digg!
I’m curious since I’m starting to use GIMP. I stumbled on this post via digg but out of curiosity
Will these plug-ins work on the new 2.4 release?
@Dan: Most of these plugins work on GIMP. Many of them were updated, and a few are v2.4 exclusives.
@Shankar: Thanks for all the help and support, mate.
Since Gimp is now in the 2.4 series of stable releases, plugins and scripts that have been tested for 2.4 are located at http://gimpfx-foundry.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gimpfx-foundry/gimp-2.4/stable/
Good list of Plugins. I have’nt used GIMP much, Will check out a few.
CMYK?
Good list, thank you
Yey!
one of my scripts is actually on this list (cloud generating script)
Thanks!
I’m missing some of my favourite plugins. E.g. greycstoration which is wonderful for denoising images, much better than DeNoise.
Or liquidrescale which allows you to change a picture’s aspect ratio without deforming or cropping it.
Thank you . im looking forward to shift from photoshop , so this will be very helpful for my shift .
What hell is this page supposed to be? You supposedly are listing top 40 plug-ins for Gimp but have no example images for illustration purposes? Are you kidding me?
Do you even use Gimp? I bet you only wanted to put up a page that got some good number “hits” and “diggs” … waste of time.
Do they work with Gimpshop?
The first one on the list fails with the most recent version. :/
@nicolaz: They have been tested with GIMP, and you might be able to get them working with GIMPshop, since the core is similar.
@Andrew: Most plugins will work, and the few that do not work will be fixed by the authors soon (unless they’re out of the plugin business and do not update). Patience, dear, patience!

¿Soporte para CMYK?
The link to the ISO Noise Reduction plugin is broken.
i’ve been looking for more different logo styles, i just found this resource, i didn’t realise gimp was so huge until today, i’ve been struggling with photofiltre for the past 3 years.
great to find info like this, i do all my design work in gimp, some of the plugins are 10+ years old but still useful.I too shifted from photoshop to gimp.
I am brand new to gimp and can’t find out how to get the brushes to download can some one be more specific? then /User/username? i don’t even know where to find that screen?
Is there a file I can download that has most, if not even more, of these plug-ins? I am using version 2.6.7 and I’d like to get some nice plug-ins, but if I can save time by downloading just one file instead of a bunch one-at-a-time, I’d be happy.
