    For me, a graphic designer, gimp is quite possibly the worst software Ive ever used. I wins someone would fork Krita to have more image editing related features.

        Namely the horrific UI. Everything is burried within menus and popup windows.

      sure, i wouldn’t even dream of doing any real graphics work daily on gimp. i just hope that the developement picks up speed and more contributors after gimp 3.0 releases hopefully in may.

          Graphite has interesting ideas but I’m no fan of the web first focus.

          Plus every time I’ve tried, their raster editing has absolutely horrible performance.
