    Wow, gimp has really come a long way since I last used it. Really hoping to drop my Adobe sub but need a solid Lightroom alternative. Gimp is more than sufficient for the amount I ever need Photoshop editing. Thanks for the tips!

      Give GimpShop a go! It's the only way I can use Gimp. It makes Gimp feel a lot like Photoshop. It does the same stuff as this vid, only you over-write the config files in one go and it's done. Very easy.

  • @Minkiu

    Something that I find handy is using the `/` shortcut, which brings a search bar to find commands/actions within GIMP (and also tells you their shortcut).

    I used to use a program called Gimpshop years ago which accomplished the same thing for the most part. I haven't checked whether it's been updated in a while, but I really liked using it because it made following Photoshop tutorials a lot easier.

    I don't use Photoshop. Hasn't been using it for something about 20 years. But as far as I remember how swatches worked in PS (these 20 yrs ago), GIMP has its analog. It just isn't called 'swatches' but 'palettes/palette editor'.

  • @slimysomething

    You can get rid of the rulers too. And another thing you can try is remapping Ctrl+V to paste into a new layer to avoid getting a floating layer.

  • @pesfreak18
    @pesfreak18 3 месяца назад +4

    I don´t use Photoshop or GIMP because I don´t edit photos. But it`s nice to know that you don`t have to pay for a license of photoshop to get a very good alternative and with some tweaking very similiar layout and functions.

      yeh for anyone whos even in a pinch or arent at there main computer and need to do some photoshop. Its also great because it can open psd files and save as psd files iirc so you can even share work with people that have photoshop

      @kennyheimbuch8686 3 месяца назад

      @@RevenMoodley Yes, the import/export as you say is flawless. Have you ever had issues with GIMP when editing text on a layer?
      Affinity's offerings are a good alternative too (anything to get people off of the horrible rent-seeking Adobe).

    I don’t know if it still exists but years ago there was an interface plugin for Gimp that made it act and look like Photoshop. I think Adobe might have sued them but my mental archive bits are rotting so I’m not sure.

    There is definitely a learning curve for new GIMP users. As a very occasional user, I find myself doing a quick search for help quite often, but there are *lots* of great tutorials available. Thanks for sharing your experiences with the transition. The topic is popular, so you will probably generate some additional traffic with more like this one! Keep on keeping on...
