Which way, white man?
>>108943006I only know gimp and I only use it to draw retarded memes now and then. What's the other?
>>108943006Right for quick and casual useLeft for extra specfic autistic work
>>108943006CS6 Portable & Photopea.
>>108943006>FOSShit trannyware with barely any features on the left>Windows store boomerware with barely any features on the rightI choose picrelated>t. used all
>>108943006Neither, they both lack fundamental features that I need.I'm already using Affinity.
>>108943090Umm.. I asked both Claude and Gemini if this has AI features and they said no?... how do you even use it?
>>108943006between the two GIMP if you need a deep featured program. Paint.net if you need a simple photo editor. >>108943078but this anon is right.
>>108943090it just works…
>Paint.NET has finally acquired the domain paint.net because the previous owners decided to host malicious links referencing paint.NET so they lost the domain in a trademark infringement and domain squatting casefucking finally
>>108943006We have photopea everything else is shit lol.
Paint.NET 3.5 runs on Wine, is better than nothing.
>>108943407Holy shit, I finally no longer have to say "get paint.net but from getpaint.net, not from paint.net"
>>108943006
>>108943006I'll take anything over GIMP, I'd rather draw on paper and then scan it than use fucking GIMP it's mindboggling something this dogshit has not only been made completely unironically but that it still plagues the world today
Krita
>>108943006Gimp is way to complicated with shit tier documentation. Therefore, it is trash.
>>108943558Alien UI
>>108943035Paint.NET.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint.NETProblem is that it's only made for Windows, but you might be able to run it in Wine.
>>108943006>open paint.net>click circle tool>draw circle
>>108943095this
why didnt they make microsoft paint but with handful more features that people most commonly usepeople want to open an app that opens instantly and does the internet forum things like resize image without it being fucked up
>>108943006I moved to gimp because it's better for processing scans with the fourier plugin
>>108943006>mspaint for stupid shit>pirated csp v1 for drawing>pirated photoshop for stupid shit w/ transparency and content aware fillingAs much as I'd like to drop photoshit for good, csp doesn't have CAF.
>>108943006i use linuxgimp is so shit that i create my own image editor that behave exactly like ms paint and i call it mspaint.exe
>>108943095Affinity was the patrician choice until they switched to a freemium/subscription model last year.I'll continue using version 2 until it's utterly dead.
Wait, gimp still can't do a circle? Is this a fucking joke?
last time i used paint.net was over a decade ago but i remember it better than gimp it probably still is
>>108947498at this point, they must be doing it out of spite
every time I see these threads as a linux user it tilts me because all I want is literal microsoft paint, don't even say kolourpaint
Paint.NET>make a selection>automatically can be transformed and moved after selection>push escape to clear selectionNo other editor does this which is so fucking infuriating.
>>108947690Krita is as close as I can get to Paint.NET and I've gotten used to it over my time with Linux. I still miss PDT because it was far easier to use, but I'm not inhibited by Krita.
>>108943006I still can't believe that paint.net does not run natively on linux after all these years. Even the 3.x version is crap as it sometimes crashes unexpectedly using wine. I just can't make the jump to krita. I'm not white tho.
>>108947659I just use JSPaint online. Almost identical experience.
>>108943006can you draw circles with gimp yet?
>>108947494saxo with impregnation and later birth
>>108943006pdn is superior for actually editing images in the 99% of cases people actually have (quickly balancing color, creating or removing transparency, etc)>>108947494sexo but that is a drawing program for use with tablets to make art from scratch, not the same sort of image editor pdn and gimp are. people who use those to straight up draw are psychopaths
>>108943006paint.net is only slightly better than mspaint. it doesnt even support layers. on the other hand it can draw circles unlike gimp. so idk
>>108948565>it doesnt even support layersWhat the fuck are you talking about?It has had layers for decades
>>108943006I'm a bit too used to this ancientware
what about paint shop pro
>>108949201>>108949381lol
>>108944252Depending on your particular needs, you might be able to use Pinta on Linux instead of messing with Wine. Some of the code is from Paint.net, which makes many plug-ins compatible with it.
>>108948380paint.net is author's pet project for playing with all the newest windows apis.wine is not hurrying to implement them just to support a single program ever.
>>108943006SAI Paint Tool
I unironically love that to draw a straight line in gimp you need to first read the manual. "How do I quit vim" type shit, it's' great
>>108943434what is the exact version number that works with wine? I use pinta but would still be nice to have it on my pc just for the sake of it
>>108943006I wish PDN had a proper text tool. I hate using 15 janky plugins
>>108947498Ellipse Select while holding ShiftNice try, retard>>108947651How about I shit in your mouth out of spite
>>108949768>brush tool>click once to mark the initial position>hold Shift>click twice to mark the final positionFuck off retard
>>108949869What if I want to draw a star or an aeroplane like I can in fucking Photoshop 7.0 anon?GIMPtards have no excuse to not just add a basic draw shapes tool and your retard-grade alternative is just extra steps and less functionality.
>>108949948Photoshop 7.0's "shape tool" is literally just vector paths with pre-baked presets. You want a star? Draw it with the Path Tool and save it as a template.And why the fuck are you even using GIMP for vector graphics anyway? Use fucking Inkscape.May all your family be struck by lightning for your brain-dead retardness.
>>108949890Yes anon, thanks for repeating what the documentation already teaches :)
>>108947651gimp project was started as controlled opposition haven't you heard
>>108943006sovl.net
>>108944252I think there is a linux port but it's older
>>108948565retard
>>108949890I like how you are unironically too stupid to realize you just proved his point
I'm still mad that Paint.NET devs delete their older versions of the program.It's nigh impossible to find specific version because those retards just wipe everything and nobody is backing them up.
>>108947498use case for that?
>>108950575drawing a circle
An offline version of Photopea would fucking kick ass but I'm too dumb to figure out how to host it locally or just put it in an EXE
>>108950582use case for being able to draw a circle is to be able to draw a circle?useless
>>108950586https://github.com/suckyourfelf/photopea-desktop
>>108943090> CS6Yes yes yes YES
>>108943006I'm a brown man and use photopea and krita
>>108950586are you really shilling an electron app
>>108943095I want to like Affinity, but my muscle memory is bound to photoshop and all the macros I had set up for it, and I don't have the time to learn how to use it.
>>108949779Latest point release, 3.5.11 it seemshttps://forums.getpaint.net/topic/107374-installing-pdn-under-wine-in-linuxmac/The advise here uses PlayOnLinux but that shit is dead, you can also use Winetricks, dig around the thread someone did it. It's been years.
