The path tool (aka Pentool) in GIMP is a tool for drawing complex shapes with fine control. It's often considered as one of the most intimidating tools for newbies, so this tut was created to show how easy in fact this tool is.
So here it is: GIMP Path Tool (aka Pentool) Tutorial (this is an external link to my site with the page of the tutorial)
-----
As far as I know, this is The most extensive path tool tutorial for GIMP on the web. When it was on my old site, it was the second hit on google for "GIMP path tool". Since I moved it to my new site, I thought also to share it on deviantart for some people to enjoy :D
Here is the link again: GIMP Path Tool (aka Pentool) Tutorial

I'd really appreciate feedback/corrections/suggestions! ;-)
