takeda@lemmy.world 3 days agoWhenever I use gimp, and have to draw square, circle, text or a similar shape I swear I need to search the net for the answer.
You can do everything, but it is very counter intuitive to a noob. I don’t need to use gimp/Photoshop so I regularly forget it and need to look it up every time. I’m sure that for somebody who uses it regularly it is intuitive.

My Gimp workflow heavily involves Inkscape for that reason. If you need shapes, curves, text, moving stuff around, even scaling and rotating, Inkscape is much better. It’s only when I actually have to edit something in an existing image that I open Gimp. And sometimes when I need a complicated guideline, I’ll create it in Inkscape, export to png, import in Gimp, just so I don’t have to use the shape tool.

I absolutely LOVE Inkscape! It even helped me to avoid having to purchase expensive embroidery software!
Plus, when I deliver artwork / graphics to web builders, they’re ecstatic that I send SVG files instead of shitty jpegs.
1000% support Inkscape. ❤️
