Donating to GIMP will not likely make it user-friendly enough to make me use it unless absolutely forced to. I would much rather donate to Pinta or Paint.NET or something where development would actually benefit me.

Yes. Pinta and Paint.net are often the best solution for lots of tasks. They will need help too.

GIMP has come from nothing just on donations. As I can get results as good as PS very quickly, that is quite a feat. And soon v3 will be out with more goodies.

This is always funny to me. I used it just fine for developing all the graphics for literally 5 mobile games on nothing but gimp

Congratulations! I literally used gimp to draw at least 20 smiley faces so I have no idea what people are complaining about.
