I really like those new icons - Yeah, they're kinda flat, but they actually have colour.

They've basically taken peak 2005 icons, and improved on them.

Very nice.

I agree, those are fantastic icons. Very clear.

Is there any reason to use this now that Krita exists, sane name and all?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

IMHO Krita is more of a drawing app (that's what I use it for) and GIMP (I wish I could make a wish upon the monkey's paw and get it renamed... To Libre Graphics Manipulation App. Or -- LiGMA) is more for editing stuff

But yo'ure entitled to your own opinion ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I've taken to calling it LiGMA/GIMP myself.

When I tried to use Krita a few months ago I couldn't set the white point in the levels tool. I looked it up and the tool apparently doesn't exist. That makes it awful for processing scanned artwork in my workflow.

Soooo, The GIMP.

I use Levels filter tool for that in Krita. Already non-destructive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I use both. GIMP is still good
