second website

This is the recommend location for downloading, and for Windows users
we don't show MD5 or stuff. The download link is quite obvious.

It _could_ be a button indeed. Something to work on in due time.

What has to be considered here is the overwhelming number of
button-look-a-likes that lead users to malicious copies of the software
they want - we should not contribute to this automatic behavior, if is
one of the reasons why we left SF, after all.

I'd suggest that we make 'Download GIMP 2.8.10' a link to the HTTP url
as well, and keep the rest as-is.
