We’ve just released GIMP 2.7.5, the last beta in the 2.7.x series. This version got various fixes and improvements, translation updates and a few minor features such as configurable default color of quick masks.

Since this version GIMP is shipping with a revamped brush pack and a set of ca. 40 tools presets, mostly painting related. The work was done by Ramón Miranda (GIMP Paint Studio) and Guillermo Espertino. This particular change is a first major step in updating the default bundle of resources to match user expectations.

For a complete list of changes since 2.7.4 please refer to the NEWS page, while the release notes summarize changes in the whole 2.7.x series.

There are still some bugs to fix before we can release v2.8. We encourage you to join the team and help us getting 2.8 released.
