No need to. You claimed "no books, no support forums, no tutorials" - you were wrong.

Dozens of books - how many do you need? That is certainly not the only GIMP book - just one I happened to list - gimptalk.com lists 10 - that's hardly the only source. Of course, I have observed that no one seems to be able to do anything with PS until they've spent several hundred dollars for training - on top of several hundred dollars for the software. It's your money - I value mine more than that.
