Pre-compiled Binaries
Windows
You can grab a pre-compiled Windows distribution from here. This comes as a zip file which should be extracted into your GIMP user directory. For example, C:\Users\username\.gimp-2.8\ would be the correct directory for user "username" and GIMP version 2.8.
Mac OS X
You can grab a pre-compiled Mac OS X distribution from here. This comes as a zip file which should be extracted into your GIMP user directory. For example, /Users/username/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.8/.
