Anything that can operate on an existing image.
What is the difference between a TOOL and a PLUG-IN?
Tools can respond to clicks in the image window. Plug-in adjustments must be done from within the plug-in's own dialog. Tools can give you a full-sized preview of their effect in the image window, plug-in's can only offer a miniature preview in the plug-in's dialog. Tools display their options in the Tool Options dialog, while plug-ins must use a separate dialog.

What is the purpose of motion blur?
It blurs in only one direction to give an impression of motion.

Briefly describe the purpose of the following ENHANCE filters:
- Anti-alias - Looks for jagged edges and tries to make them look smoother.
- Despeckle - Removes small elements of "noise" from an image.
- Destripe - Removes vertical lines that are left by some older scanners.
- NL Filter - A combination of smoothing, despeckle, and sharpen in one filter.
Briefly describe the purpose of the following DISTORT filters:
- Blinds - Makes it look like your image is painted on venetian blinds.
- Curve Bend - Useful for changing the shape of nearly any layer.
- Engrave - Creates the black-and-white "engraved" look that you sometimes see in old illustrations.
- IWarp - Deforms the image in various ways such as grow and swirl.
Briefly describe the purpose of the following filters:
- Polar Coords - Wraps an image around a point at the top or bottom center.
- Ripple - Makes an image look as though it's being viewed through water waves.
- Lens Flare - Set a flare on the image.
- Supernova - Makes a flare with spiky rays, allowing you to control its color.
- Drop Shadow - Adds a shadow behind an object at an angle.
- Glass Tile - Makes the image look like it's being viewed through a wall made of many glass bricks, each of which refracts light a little differently.
Describe various ways the EDGE filters are used in GIMP:
To give a subtle pastel effect by blurring the image with two different radii, and then subtracting one from the other. To give wild neon effects and to replace your image with a line drawing.

What does the FILMSTRIP filter do?
Combines the layers in the image into a single image that looks like a strip of 35mm film.

List and describe 5 filters found in the ARTISTIC filters group:
- Apply Canvas - Gives a canvas-like texture to the image.
- Cartoon - Simplifies colors and adds black outlines near edges with the intent of making a photograph look like a hand-drawn and inked cartoon.
- Cubism - Turns your image into cubist art.
- Oilify - Blurs and flattens the image in ways that make it look like a paint-by-number.
- Photocopy - Makes the image look as though it was subjected to a poor-quality copy machine, with burnt-out lights and overdone edges.
