Is the Gimp just as good as Photoshop? Yes, for the average home user, the Gimp is just as good as Photoshop. The gimp has layers, alpha channels, a robust plugin architecture, I could go on but they have a pretty good overview of what the Gimp is capable of at Gimp.org.
Gimp vs. Photoshop http://grimthing.com/archives/2007/01/11/Gimp_vs_Photoshop/ So, who wins? I'm about to tell you, geez... don't get your panties in a bunch. The winner for commercial printing – Photoshop. The winner for home use – The Gimp. ----------- I feel that the author would have given Gimp success in the commercial field as well if The Gimp supported CMYK and/or PANTONE. There is an example of converting RGB to CMYK in Photoshop and the problems that creep in. Just thought I would share. -- Robin Laing _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
