What is the catch? And how does it stand against GIMP?
The only catch with Affinity (as of current v3 release under Canva) is that it require a Canva account as formality when you first install it, it won't ask login again. If you're paranoid enough with muh data, you can opt out on setting, or even firewall block Affinity installation folder.Feature wise, Affinity can totally replace Ps, Ai, and Id workflow; except Ps animation and some specific non-destructive editing. It's funny that companies willingly getting squeezed by Adobe subscription knowing that Affinity could handle the project for free now, with less performance bloat.t. user since v1, and finally accepted that Canva's v3 actually an improvement over Serif's v2
>>462577Why is gimp so terrible and no good a alternative has popped up that is free open source and works on Linux? You’d think with something like blender there would be something as good but for graphic design.Does Krita count?Is gimp controlled opposition to be a bad software so people give up and go for the paid for ones or at least go for affinity now?How well does the affinity suite run on winboat?
>>463630have you tried krita? not the same as pohotoshop and originally intended as drawing software, but it does many things better than gimp does. might be enough for your needs. you should give it a try.
>>462799>>462588Run CS6 in a VM. Stop being SaaS'ed and globo-homo'ed.
>>462626> You can opt out of it but yeahDon’t opt out, opt in an poison their data like mofo.
How do I make good AI images without censorship? Don't need boobs though. I'm gay.
>>463996already curious about whether adding the irrelevant fact of you being gay will increase or decrease your chances of receiving a valuable answer

>>463980lol bro it literally says do not touch
is it the best graphic design Jumbo Josh? I have yet to see better.
>>463956sure, you prolly wouldnt know it if you saw it
This might be more related to video editing, but does anyone have any idea how the tabs were put on screen like in the screenshot? Its a 16 year old video, and it sure doesn't look like your average sony vegas/premiere text tool. Something more analogue.https://youtu.be/k37XOqSDGcY
premiere has been around for a long time pali think its just that "notation" is inherently messy so it looks wonky.
>>463832most likely a copy/paste of notepad text in larger font size
>>463832i don't see why this is hard to figure out.it was clearly done in windows movie maker.
>>463861genuinely?
>>463947https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Movie_Makerwho the fuck knowsdoes it matter?
Should I learn Photoshop or Illustrator first?I know both are practically essential, but which is better to learn first?
>>459488Learn Photoshop then Illustrator, and apply design basics knowledge while at itPhotoshop is for pixel stuff, image editing and composingIllustrator for vector graphics, so basically a lot of shit between creating icons for apps and logos to composing a full vectorial illustration, webside mockups or creating anything typography intensiveafter that go InDesign once you get into layouts and grids for dense text and multipage prints like books and mags>>462356it comes down to usability and standarization. GIMP Inkscape, and other software like Krita and even the Affinity suit i guess do the very barebones basics as illustrator and Photoshop does, and you can do most things in those. it boils down to all the extra options some which are buried behind a bunch of drop downs that those software have stacked over yearsBlend tool alone is a good reason to go for illustrator over affinity, it shits itself sometimes but good luck doing anything it does manually, saves a lot of time and allows for exploring other things with ease, no need to reinvent the wheel every single timePeople throw a fit at GIMP for its shitty UX but Illustrator and InDesign aren't much better, they're just standard and thats why they get a pass
>>463894indesign is just for repetitive multipage design
Photoshop.When, I need design and curves, I gave up Illustrator. I use MSpaint, it's just good.16 years experience as a professional illustrator and I use MSpaint from WindowsXP
>>463937Can anyone create a picture where Mamdani standing next to Charlie Kirk? Both were killed by Jews on 9/11

>>463441reacting to this post will always make you lose, no matter what
>>463441Fire. Keep up the good work, son
>>463441Draw a line under the letters or it looks like c, with line will look like g
I need help. My family is going through a really tough financial situation: my mom is working herself to exhaustion, my dad’s factory is about to close, and I want to go to university but I don’t know what I can work at while studying.I studied at a technical school for electronics, but I barely learned anything practical. What jobs or activities would you recommend for a student like me to start earning money now? Any realistic advice helps, thanks.
>>463684find a job in electronics from somebody hiring
>>463684Find an electrician and ask him if he'd like a gopher assistant while you learn the trade. Also selling cell phones is good starter job.
Can anyone here explain or illustrate what the hell this corporate logo is supposed to be? It's driving me absolutely insane. I only see a retarded pelican.
>>463918
>>463919Pic related began as a highly stylized almost ancient Egyptian hawk symbol and was then made more non specific and mechanical looking in order to better reflect a more high performance aerospace flight direction that is well beyond simply emulating birds but still connects to that.
>>463920
>>463921 the vestiges of the earlier star shape in the lower version's overlapping delta shapes also easily suggest higher performance "flight" in those shapes and suggestion of motion- but aren't birds or airplanes either.
>>463293Looks like some Wipeout like racing ship>>463920This is pretty, get the stealth fighter/bomber vibe out of it. The new NG logo sucks.
I don’t want to pay for adobe again (literally can’t and never should have). Any way I can pirate and still be able to edit my Photoshop files?
yes.
there is a MONkey from RUSsia that can help you
>>463854Run CS6 in a Virtual Machine.
>>463927This or in Wine, hell I have been using PS CS6 extended X64 for over a decade, I tried CC but it's trash, it's slower, and more limited in plugins.I think that's the best version to date, CS6 portable, usually clean.
Not sure if this is the right board to ask but how does logos & symbols get professionally printed with such precision on plastic like in pic? What’s this called and how do I do this?
>>462836>Plain grayLaser marking>Single color or limited palettePad printing>Multi color, not as crispVarious other printing technologies>Large area on plastic partIn mold decoration/In mold label
>>462836>printedit's just more plastic of a different color melted into a thin layer in the molding process.
Giant stenciled Japanese Booba dipped in ink and then precisely pressed against the playstation.
>>462836It is pobably just really good pad printing.
>>463390>>463862thist. used to work as a pad printer
Adobe products are so fucking fucked once you learn what this software is capable of. Serves them right for running a business with such a parasitic subscription model and bloated, partially outdated software.
shitty shill post
I don't get it.
>>463830Makes them look bad and doesnt save any space.its joke
>>463831well, if you need hires tiffs to print, it both ruins your files AND saves spaces
>>463831Isn't that only if you pick a low quality? I also read something that JPEG are better for computer-made pictures while PNG are better for photos.
