Anon has Photoshop class - Lemmy.world

How much does Photoshop cost now?
$20 a month, no way to buy lifetime subscription, $50 a month to get all adobe products
Until recently their Creative Cloud subscription was $12. It includes Photoshop, 1TB cloud storage, Light room and a couple of smaller tools aimed at photographers. But it got pushed up to $20 because of inflation. My yearly subscription renewed a couple of months ago for the old price, so I’m lucky for now.

But it got pushed up to $20 because of inflation.

please stop propagating this bullshit. It got pushed because of greed.

Right? If you don’t happen to live in Turkey, there’s no fucking 67% inflation.

SaaS

The end times basically

You can’t own a copy and you rent your usage by the month.

You’ll Own Nothing and Be Happy.
The Enshitification continues
And nobody wants to vote to stop it, because almost everyone thinks corporate copyright interests have merit.
It’s free if you want it to be
Really? I thought it’s cloud based nowadays and therefore csn’t be found on the high seas anymore.
I’ve pirated it several times in recent years, but you can also pirate older versions of it from before it changed to cc, unless that’s changed in theast year or 2
Open inkscape Draw circle Export bmp Open as layers 😹
Why BMP. GIMP can deal with SVGs, no?
It can open SVGs as raster images, but I never managed it to look great. It’s better to export to a BMP from an SVG editor.
The magic of Linux workflow.
you can’t draw a circle in gimp?
There's no "Shape" tool. You could just select a circular area in an empty layer and fill it though.
No. The meme was because there was a bug that made drawing some circles go all wonky.
It’s genuinely not easy, but that’s because it’s a powerful tool that can change some aspects about drawing a circle.

You can, it is very unintuitive though. You draw the shape using the eilpse tool and set a border for the selection.

It’s not hard, but there is really no way to figure this out without ever looking for a tutorial.

It’s absolutely stupid design and more difficult than it needs to be.

I’ll say it - Photoshop is infinitely more intuitive than gimp for the average person. Sure, if you are fucking determined, I’m sure you can figure it out eventually. You can even make it work. But if you say it is easier than Photoshop, you are wrong.

I love FOSS stuff but way too many people are delusional about the pros and cons of it. There are absolutely cons.

I stand with op.

I don’t believe that you can even figure out half of the things yourself if you are determined. There is no way you can use it without looking up tutorials for even basic things.

I fully agree in case my precious comment wasn’t clear. It is a mess!

All this time I was using the ellipse tool, filling it, then shrinking my selection and deleting.

Ah well, I learned Inkscape recently and it’s a better tool for stuff like that anyway.

GIMP 2 is utter dogshit in terms of user experience.

GIMP 3, the version that is supposed to make everything easier, hasn’t been released yet. ^(it’s been years and I have given up hoping)

Seriously though, why there is no shape tool in Gimp?
Because it’s a UX mess.

Because creative FOSS is usually terrible, their methods demolish the flow of an average creative worker with constant "No, it doesn’t work like that "-type interruptions.

Intuitive functionality is never a priority and never done right. If anything it seems to be viewed as sacriliege to sacrifice clean and simple code for the base instincts of an ignorant user.

I remember finding some comments from people being pissed that Blender got an Undo function. Felt like I was living in a bizarro world.
Eh? More of a GIMP specific issue. Krita, Kdenlive, and Inkscape for example are all fantastic, not to mention Blender

Krita, fantastic? That comment might’ve convinced on someone who hasn’t tried it. It does not convince me.

The fact that you mention “Kdenlive” and Inkscape along with Krita makes me expect the two others to be absolute dogshit.

I find Krita to be amazing… Did we even use the same app?
It’s like a traditional martial art, you must first master arbitrarily complicated forms before, maybe, being able to make something useful of it it in ten years.
makes sense. same people who made emacs.
Gimp logic is a bit different from whatever logic a regular user is used to. It’s easy to work with once you familiarize yourself with it.

“UMMM what the fuck is that, anon?”

“it’s a great open-source software called mind your own fucking business

Leaving me alone is free (not soybicycle free, North Korea free)

Welp time to find Photoshop in the High Seas

did they ban that stuff over in lemmy.world?
Yeah. Banned due to liability of the admins getting sued by big corp for hosting. It was really fun reading both sides. Some users pissed and threatening to leave the server. Others agreeing with the decision calling the opposing users whiny and asking why did you even join one of the biggest servers then? 10/10 recommend reading the threads.

yeah, must suck for the world pirates. I am waiting for native transfer of accounts on lemmy.

Apparently there are third party apps now that can do it somehow, but I don’t know how reliable they are.

I just made a new account and delt with it. But yeah it was a pain

Yeah because it’s evil and illegal and stuff, and everyone knows that a illegal stuff needs to be banned by unrelated adminson what is an entirely different website.
there are quite a few people who don’t know you were being sarcastic. Either that or they agree with the admin’s decision.

Pirated Photoshop doesn’t have the AI shit though which is sooooooo good

I just get my work to pay for my Adobe subscription

It doesn’t? Lol

I pirated Photoshop just in case but genuinely haven’t used it more than twice so idk

Not the last I checked. Try content aware fill, does it give you the generate AI prompt?
it works on my copy of ps2021
