November 21'st 1995, GIMP was officially announced. We are going to celebrate it's creation on that day by rallying some buzz about it online by creating splash screens and sharing them on twitter with the #gimpday hashtag. Of course, we're going to share everything else too, but the contest is included! The goal is to get #gimpday to be a trending topic on twitter, and to show the world what gimp can do!

Gimp 2.8's release is on target for November. One of the things they haven't gotten done yet is a splash screen, this is our way of thanking them for their hard work.

You guys are welcome to join! Get everyone you can!

The original announcement for this event was made in the gimpchat forums. I'm an active member there, and wanted to reach out to other forums to generate extra buzz.
