Everything and nothing

This doesn't help at all

Nuffin.

Nothing much wrong with it. Unfortunately it's been cast too often as a direct replacement for Photoshop, which it isn't.

Nothing. Since I discovered they're anti-SJW it became my favourite image manipulation program :^)

For a free photoshop alternative absolutely nothing

It's just a bit confusing when you used both Gimp and Photoshop

Problematic devs. Shit UI. Slow development.

The UI sucks

...

Where? I gotta share this with my SJW friends

Check their twitter

It's completely and utterly unintuitive.

It's not Photoshop therefore unusable.

The UX is terrible
Easiest example: All the transform tools could be combined into one tool.
Text tool is mediocre.
Still no CMYK support last I checked
Nondestructive editing still not supported
If they don't hurry up, Krita is going to start beating them at image manipulation and it isn't even made for that.

>use text tool
>dragging it, drags the background even though I have the text layer highlighted
>?????
>read online that i have to hold a key to drag the text book

>selection tools are all fucky making normal workflow tasks even more tedious

Using GIMP is complete hell.

>Krita is going to start beating them at image manipulation
It already does.

What can Gimp do that Krita can't do right now - because I'm ready to make the jump to Full Krita

...

Perhaps if they spent more time making a FUCKING working gui instead of politicking - we wouldn't have near constant "why is GIMP bad" threads

I like Gimp's selection tool more, the lasso can handle more than one stroke before creating a selection.
Also if you think Gimp's text tool is bad, Krita's is almost completely unusable. It's easier to export and do your text in inkscape. This is supposedly getting fixed soon though.

>almost completely unusable

This, and it looks like complete ass

>we wouldn't have near constant "why is GIMP bad" threads
Say what? We have been having Intel vs AMD threads more than anything.

>2k17
>people are too dumb to learn to photoshop

It's designed for people who like programming and know nothing about art or what is needed to make it.

The text tool is particularly infuriating.

About 4 in the past two weeks

I don't understand why they made it that way too. I can get behind design differences if there's a logic behind it. What were they thinking?

What about that affinity thing?

>nondestructive editing still not supported

Aren't most raster edits destructive? I can't remember a program with this feature

Nothing really, I just wish it had a built in patch tool that was a easy to use as Photoshop's, and that I could get pressure sensitivity to work with my Huion h610. It's honestly probably a driver problem though.

It's GIMPed

>pic
wtf I love GIMP now

...

It be poop

...

>using the GUI version
lmao pleb

...

Everything.
Unfortunately i have to use this piece of shit since paint.net won't install on my machine.

Oh holy shit it's true

By the way i am not a native speaker. Is gimp a racial slur or something like that?

I use Photofiltre 7.

Fucking Firefox """devs""" harassing humble GIMP developers.

>The Alternate Raster Designer

Oh my god, these people don't even know what an acronym is.

It means many things. Either someone with a physical disability, a gimp, someone who has had their specs gimped, or a submissive sex slave.

People will complain about anything. Get the popcorn.

Apparently acronyms within acronyms is a new concept to some people.

Clever

The masterrace of image editors, kek.

Its meh for digital art, krita just feels better for it.

...

funny thing, I found this while i was searching GIMP

>someone shits on them for their name choice
>"dude, it's not a big deal"
>REEEE, stop politickk

Hard to beat illustrator, photoshop and flash
>with jasc animation shop 3 for gif sequencing

Looks like I have to give Krita a go though. Looks interesting.

>TARD
Fantastic, this guy must hate bakers.

They should just tell everyone it's actually pronounced "JIMP".

You can just download CS2 Photoshop. It's free right now. So what's the point of GIMP?

>1. Matter of preference
I've always used GIMP, when I was forced to use Photoshit the UI was the most counter-productive piece of shit I've ever had to deal with.
The reverse probably applies to Photoshop babbys.
>2. There's a plug-in for that

I always see this gui meme,but then open gimp and find my self wondering what the actual fuck you are all talking about.There is nothing wrong with the gui

We have to make a fork (exact clone) of GIMP called "GIMP Other Acronym To SJW Environment"

It's not. You have to own a license to legally use it. So might as well pirate the latest version.

It's not free. It's illegally gratis.

Did not know this, thanks.
