    If you are looking for GIMP for Windows, here you go: http://gimp.org/windows/
    Think before you type: If anybody asks you to type anything with rm -rf on the CLI, DO NOT do it! As a matter of fact, if you don't know what a set of commands will do, ask for clarification from other members.

    It is perfectly legal to sell a GPLed software.

    I have not downloaded it, but from the site, it mentions that it is Freeware, and they have their own license on their website.
    I really think this is a violation, since the GIMP is GPL.

    It is not said anywhere that the license applies to GIMP.

    It's a bit ironic how some people, in trying to defend GPLed works, try to figure out how to prohibit something.

    It's not ethical to distribute Gimp for money (by non-developers), sure. But it's well within their rights.

    Ironically, I clicked on the download link, and chromium ask If I was sure I wanted to download the file, as it may harm my computer.

    The site doesnt ask for money, but its strange that they just post it up.
