but it doesn't.
The program loads until it comes to loading the fonts.
Any ideas why that is?
I'm running on Vista if that matters.

So whatever I do I will never get GIMP running under Vista? Damn, that blows.

So much negativity! Vista is excellent, except that nothing works on it!
Uh, I guess I have to stick with graphicsgale.

On WinXP I always had the problem that the startup dialog would hang for a long time at the fonts, but it would eventually continue. Did you try waiting a long time? It seems this problem has already been reported on Vista too.
