Remove GIMP from the default install, but, replace the menu item with an item that will display information about GIMP and then ask if the user wants to go ahead and (fetch &) install it from the repos.

This way, GIMP is still visible, yet not on the CD, and is easily installable.

easy, do not remove gimp from live CD, some users, like me, can't connect to Internet so easily

Removing the help files from gimp will already make the cd smaller.
I have heard from various people it would make the cd about 20 mb smaller just by removing gimp help files.

It's a great application and I use it a lot, but it's not for everyone. A simple photo-editor with things like rescaling and "remove red-eye" is probably enough for many people. Also, it's not too difficult to install GIMP once your system in installed :)

Very often I just wanna draw an arrow over a map and write "the party is here!". Or just crop a picture.

And it's a pain to do it in gimp. It's like operate war tank to kill an ant. Please give us a simple image editor, no layers, no vectors, no Filters, etc. Try to remember the first time you opened the gimp. What do I do with all these windows and tools?
