I still use Gimp to make raster projects, and got inkscape for vector. Gimp is not very beginner friendly, but once you get used to it, it's a dream. Especially with it being open source, it means you can download, and make, plug-ins and it becomes almost as useful as base photoshop

As someone who uses Gimp, it's very powerful, just not for a lot of graphic design applications. It's more tuned for photo editing and image manipulation, and so I usually supplement it with Inkscape for those weak spots.

Remember reading online somewhere that "Gimp is just as powerful as Photoshop, you just need to navigate an extra 4 menus to get it to do anything you want" and while clearly hyperbole, I think it describes the workflow pretty well That being said, as a Linux-loving CS major that was only a course or two away from a GD minor, I love Gimp to death and couldn't imagine using anything else

The company hired a design studio for a rebrand, and I got given the task of updating all of the Excel templates we had to implement the new branding. Trying to use Excel to create complex, dynamic page layouts felt more like trying to summon a graphics demon with a medieval grimoire, but the results ended up looking really good.

Omg you didn’t mention procreate!! As an avid user of photoshop and illustrator but also being a tattoo artist, procreate is the industry standard. Has most of the functionality of photoshop but even better in some ways. Particularly for art making. So incredibly intuitive and responsive on the ipad ❤

I really like using CSP. It's mostly used for making comics, it works a lot like photoshop, but they have vector layers. The vector layers act like raster layers which is pretty cool.
@iamduck98 Рік тому
True! CSP is amazing for artists, the layers, lineart and colouring is just so smooth but I can see why it's a bit meh for designers. Manipulating photos can be tricky/ bit of a nuisance sometimes.

Some really cool features of Canva that people may not know. My favorite is you can upload custom fonts either ones you made or bought. Canva actually has a new drawing tool to make art in the app but it’s new and a bit glitchy but I feel in the coming updates they may also Intergrated vector drawing. All programs are tools and I use a mix of many different programs. My favorite are procreate and Canva. I can easily make my custom illustrations in procreate remove background, send straight to canva and my work flow is so seamless and all on my iPad. I tried a lot of the adobe suite but with my slow computer it’s honestly just a waste of time the programs just crash soo much, maybe I like too many layers.
@unanec 11 місяців тому
not to be mean but every single app that features text edit allows font importation, every app in the video can do that. You can also do it in word, writer or whatever you use to make cool designs or give extra personality to your work. If you have a slow computer you may like the veteran combo inskape+gimp

I've been using Affinity Desinger/ Photo for over two years now (creating new free trial accounts every month) and as an individual who can't afford any of the Adobe products I'm more than satisfied with all of it's functions. It is pretty much noticable that Affinity itself is a work in progress meaning that many features aren't fully fleshed out or optimized ( the gradient tool for example is absolutely horrible since you cant make it follow a path ) but that wouldn't stop me from recommending it to other designers new or experienced.

Inkscape will always be my favorite design tool!

Ever since I started using Blender for 3D, I’ve started to use it more and more for things I would have previously used 2D vector (and raster) programs to create. It just has so many features I want in all vector programs. Mirroring a shape across an origin, sliding vertices, easily merging verts, beveling, not to mention all the artistic freedom. I could go on for eternity. It really is just so much more enjoyable for me.
