    Now that can be an issue for some people (I mean secret contracts and stuff like that). I don’t use an image editor but if I did, I’d use Krita btw

      Krita, Inkspace, Gimp. I understand those who use it professionally but not the zealots who dont/barely use it yet demand for it like their life depended on it.

        If you’re using it professionally, you need your Photoshop to be properly licensed.

        If you’re not using it professionally, there’s no need for proper licenses. And thus you can…acquire Photoshop in a way that doesn’t involve it calling back to Adobe’s systems.

          I mean, sure… But a whole lot of people use Photoshop professionally without a license.

          Krita is great, though. Their Android version is even fully featured, so you can use a tablet with a digitizer if you don’t have a drawing pad for your desktop.

            Photoshop does a lot of things in really stupid, convoluted ways. Krita also does a lot of the same things in equally stupid, convoluted ways, but different than PS so you get no benefit from knowing how its done in other software. Text editing comes to mind. Both PS and Krita feel like they were designed by drunk people when it comes to doing anything beyond writing text and picking a font/color/size.

              IIRC the Krita people were working on redoing the text tool. Not sure if/when it’s going to be finished, though.
