: Good "low level" graphics & image manipulating concepts tutorial for beginner I have programming background with some experience with image manipulation via GIMP and Fireworks. As working with image

I have programming background with some experience with image manipulation via GIMP and Fireworks. As working with image manipulators is part of my work sometimes I decided to improve my knowledge in this area.

However, when I try looking for something like

GIMP tutorial

what I am able to find are only some tutorials with how to do this logo and that image, how to apply filter and so on.

What I would need is some decent tutorial explaining the basic graphics concepts like layers, channels and so on so I can see what is happening behind the tools used in GIMP.

What should I be looking for? What are possible resources to learn these thigns?

For these kind of tutorials lynda.com is a great resource as you can choose a course aimed at your designated skill level.

Here is a good introduction course to GIMP: www.lynda.com/course-tutorials/GIMP-Essential-Training/112673-2.html
Scan through the course subjects on the left to ensure it covers the elements you need.

Alternatively a free option is the online documentation: docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/ The list of topics here is quite comprehensive.
