I installed Gimp through the Ubuntu Software Center and the software center says it's installed, but it doesn't appear in the dash and I can't find a way to start it.

I tried connecting to the Gimp website and tried to sign in/create an account & it won't remember my password, thus I can't log in. When I ask for a new password it says its sending me an new one in and email that never arrives. I just don't understand what's going on.

Is there another way to run this program?

  • Thank you - it worked - Gimp is now on the list of programs on the vertical panel with the rest of the programs - I didn't even know the terminal exists. I just ran Ubuntus/Linux for the first time 2 days ago so i'm really a beginner. Anyway Thanks again & best regards, Wayne halvorsen – user238587 Jan 23 '14 at 10:49

    When you close GIMP and the terminal, it will probably no longer appear on the vertical launcher panel. If you wish it to appear always, start it again from the terminal and then right-click the icon and select 'Lock to Launcher.' – chili555 Jan 23 '14 at 13:21
