    Meh, always done what I need and I find easy enough.

    I’ve been in rooms for people forced to switch from PS to GIMP for corporate cost cutting. Every time I went to help someone on something else (animation or exporter related), I’d hear “GIMP can’t do X” and “GIMP can’t do Y”. I’d go over and show it could and how. It was never even stuff that hard. Layer stuff often. GIMP gets a lot of hate I just don’t think is justified.

      “GIMP can’t do X”

      =

      “GIMP works differently than I am used to”

      Same goes for Blender, Libre Office, Thunderbird and many other tools

        Exactly. I don’t even think it’s that different to be honest, it’s just not identical to PS and comes from a different windowing school of thought.
