You can get them here:

http://www.gimphelp.org/

There are other download locations as well. This site looks ok, but be sure you save the download and scan the file before opening it.

I guess I don't know what I am looking for.  I went to the site in you post, but I do not see the help file download there.  I see a link for some tutorials etc, but I don't see the one for the help file.  

When I try to pull up help  I get a message that the help files are missing and it  points me to docs.gimp.org.  I was able to get a pdf manual from there,  but so far have not been able to find the help files that can be accesseed from gimp help.   I am missing something.  feeling kind of dumb. Sad

Fay,

Are you looking for the "User's Manual"?

http://docs.gimp.org/en/


You know... Jane would be the perfect one to reply as she uses Gimp Cool

I finally found it
http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html
Not sure how I wound up there.  This is the one I can access form the help menu in gimp.

Not really sure if it is of any more benefit then just going to the pdf manula outside of gimp - but the hlep work now - for whatever that is worth.

That is the site I use for all GIMP downloads.  Especially for the updates.

Jane,

Thanks for letting me know that.  I know very little aobut GIMP.  Just decided to take a brief look at it the other day and then HELP would not work.  I have it now - not sure how much I'll ever use it.
