FYI: you can install a ported app like the gimp with /stand/sysinstall as
well, as another option.
Forgot to mention it before.

You may not need to download anything, at least not directly. If you have
the ports tree installed,
picard# cd /usr/ports/graphics/gimp1
picard# make install
<...>
picard# exit
[johnnyb@picard johnnyb]$ pkg_info gimp-1.2.2_1,1
Information for gimp-1.2.2_1,1:
Comment:
the GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description:
The GIMP is designed to provide an intuitive graphical interface to a
variety of image editing operations. Here is a list of the GIMP's
major features:
Image editing
-------------
* Selection tools including rectangle, ellipse, free, fuzzy, bezier
and intelligent.
* Transformation tools including rotate, scale, shear and flip.
* Painting tools including bucket, brush, airbrush, clone, convolve,
blend and text.
* Effects filters (such as blur, edge detect).
* Channel & color operations (such as add, composite, decompose).
* Plug-ins which allow for the easy addition of new file formats and
new effect filters.
* Multiple undo/redo.
To enable I18N extensions, execute "gimp.setfont" before you use GIMP.

The ports tree is your friend. There's an incredible amount of
easy-to-install software in there.
So are the pkg_* tools.
