-go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and download and install the GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment and the the GIMP for windows
-load the picture you want to modify into GIMP
-go to select>all
-go to image>mode>greyscale
-go to image>mode>rgb
-go to view>zoom and zoom in about 400%, or whatever is needed so one eye takes up the entire area
-bring up the box with a lot of buttons
-find the two boxes of black and white, double click the black one, and get the color you want the eyes by moving the big left selector around and press ok
-back on the box with buttons, find the paintbrush. If you hover your mouse over it it will say "paint fuzzy brush strokes". double click this.
-Click the box with a dot in it next to "brush:", and on the menu select "circle fuzzy(05)"(you will need to scroll down)
-move the opacity slider on top so it is somewhere between 20 and 50 percent, then press the X on the upper right to close that small window
-back on the picture, draw lightly over the iris of the eye, till you get it how you want it
-zoom out using view>zoom>100%
-it should now be finished, go to file>save as on the picture [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
