Raging on GIMP

[quote=InFlames]There is also a third option called paint tool sai, its more like corel painter it gives you a lot of brush sensitivity and options if youre into that, not as many filters as PS tho, its still an excellent tool to draw and work with[/quote]

[quote=xLearning2Playx]That's what happens when you can't log on and still need some sort of LoL fix! :P Besides, just started playing a few weeks ago and have been all over this site; figured it was time to reg an account and hopefully/eventually give back to this wonderful community.[/quote]

[quote=Xiaowiriamu]Photoshop offers a wide range of features and manipulation options that GIMP, sadly, doesn't offer. However GIMP isn't bad for creating signatures, as many people don't even use a quarter of what Photoshop has to offer, so generally making a signature in both Photoshop or GIMP, there's not many drawbacks. The only reason I use photoshop is because: a) Most signature makers use it, hence more tutorials, and inspiration in terms of ideas b) It's handy if there is a feature not accompanied in GIMP c) I've had experience with it Pointless moving to Photoshop if you've adapted yourself to GIMP, however if you want to experience more features, tools and capabilities, including a much wider range of tutorials through planetrenders, gamerenders etc. then try it ^_^ P.S Download the trial, and keep re-downloading it, its not necessarily pirating it, its just a loophole that someone fount, so Adobe at fault not you! however, if you're rich unlike me, buy it ^_^ Oh, and to answer your question. Yeah Photoshop can occasionally crash, it is annoying, we all know....but that's why you learn by your mistakes keep saving every 5~15minutes or 30minutes depending on whether major changes were made, or some lucky thing happened with the brush/filter that made your "piece" look 1337[/quote]

[quote=Infraynor]Also, if your a student you can purchase adobe products for a LOT cheaper, down to a couple hundred quid for most of their programs. You need an active school email or something I dunno. :P[/quote]

Switching to PS will probably not make such a big impact. Just have to find the PS answerto GIMP:S features. I'll try it out and find out how much I hate it before I decide :)[/quote]
