@5teverin0 So, why is Gnuimp 3.2 so good? Presumably less buggy than 3.0, but what else?

#GnuIMP

@samhenrigold love this feeling. I'm having it myself with a $200 secondhand #Pinebook Pro that I got to see what I could do with my intermediate Linux knowledge on a bare bones #ARM machine.

I've been running a tiling window manager, managing all of my homelab servers over SSH, using #GnuIMP just like I did on laptops from ~15 years ago to make wallpapers for my jailbroken #kindle

Not every machine needs to be able to do everything. Especially now with prices on the rise.

Does anyone know where I could find the app download files (.MSI and AppImage) for the Glimpse Image Editor? I know the project was discontinued long ago, but I still use it from time to time, and I'd like to have access to it in the future in case I change OS or device.

Oh, also, made in #Krita while procrastinating the *actual* black and white pixel art that We're supposed to be doing.

We had thought it to be not as suitable for pixel art as #GnuIMP, but, while there's still some behavior We've got to figure out, it seems it's mostly just about knowing which tools to use. To an extent We've already found the workflow better thanks to the eraser being not a dedicated tool but just a mode for your active brush.

Free Software that I rely on. One per day, I guess.

Day 2:

Gnu Image Manipulation Program

Known as #GIMP or as #GnuIMP by those who don't like the other name.

This is my go-to tool for basic image processing of photos and images for publication. It's a pretty common workflow for me to crop and/or enhance photos in Gimp and then load the output into Inkscape for layout work.

Also, FWIW, I learned it before I learned Photoshop, which frankly seemed kind of like a backward step to me, particularly in the way that Photoshop filters never seemed to have any controls (at the time -- this was 25 years ago and I haven't used Photoshop since then).

Which fuels my general belief that terms like "more intuitive" or "more powerful" are mostly a function of what you are familiar with.

It's one of the earliest graphics creation software packages I learned on Linux, and so it's become so much second nature that I hardly think about it anymore.

These days I use it all the time to crop and rescale screen captures, so I've attached one of cropping a screencap of itself.

We really need extra help and support this month

Aldercone's havin' a really rough month, about 1/2 of our collective is too ill to work, with new, interesting problems that make some of our work really difficult/impossible.

One way to help is giving to our chuffed campaign for heckimp/PIKA which for us will be basic survival money, but for you is a cool rebranded #GNUimp! https://chuffed.org/project/157315-fund-aldercone-collectives-heckimp-and-pikapp-projects

The next part of this project is to update heckimp/PIKA heckimp to deal with new changes in the upstream codebase and release stable versions that everyone can use!

Please help us (stay housed and) make this for you by supporting the project at https://chuffed.org/project/157315

Thank you!

Hey! Remember when y'all funded the first versions of heckimp and PIKA? That was awesome and now we're back with part 2!

Fundraise the project! https://chuffed.org/project/157315

Once funded, we'll be updating heckimp and PIKA with the gnuIMP 3.0 update, as well as making Linux and Windows packages so PIKApp will be easy for everyone to install!
