My last go-around with GIMP was an attempt to edit some SVG icons, simple 
stuff like changing the foreground color or make the background 
transparent. iirc I wound up with a lot of little windows.

This box has 2.10.38 and it looks different to what I remember but I don't 
have a use for it. Way back when icons appeared and you were supposed to 
create them I figured it was going to suck. I never could create one that 
looked like much of anything let alone a file folder.
