2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Krita is great.

    [–] pkmkdz 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    I feel like Krita is more focused on digital painting, rather than image editing

    [–] TheFonz@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

    I mean, what exactly does gimp or photoshop do (besides the RAW editing tools--but if you're using those you're already a professional) that Krita doesn't?

    [–] takeheart@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    I tried using Krita instead of gimp but found it hard to do color management: adjust levels, exposure, color curves and such. At the time I simply couldn't find any dialogs to do many of those tasks.

    [–] TheFonz@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

    Yeah you're right, it's not meant for that

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

    Right now I'm in a bit of a bind because part of my workflow relies on exporting particular layers and layer groups as separate images. GIMP has a plugin for it, but it uses Python 2, no longer developed, and likely won't work in GIMP 3. If Krita can do this, I'm switching immediately.

    [–] takeheart@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    Oh I wish GIMP had a "export visible" functionality. My workaround is usually to "copy visible" and then paste to a new image.

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    Isn't that what the basic "Export" does?

    [–] takeheart@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

    You're right. What I actually wish for is a "export selection" functionality so that you can quickly drag a rectangular selection and export that.

    Looks like it can: https://superuser.com/a/1347993
