My GIMP pet peeves list is much longer than this, but I also see the
tremendous work being done by so very few dedicated individuals, and this
is why I temper my complaints with patience, understanding and gratitude.

Ofnuts. Some of the choices on Linux are fine like desktop environments but
when it comes to the actual programs, having competing programs is damaging
because there aren't enough developers as it is. If another open source 3D
app competed with Blender that would draw coders away. Competing for
Alexandre, Mypaint has some new features in the development version which
takes the brush engine onto a much better level. Also, Mypaint has been
carefully designed for minimum hassle with workflow and UI. It is a very
simple but effective app. I'm a fan of that app but I'm not such a fan of

Since I no-longer have the mail this was apparently replying to, and
given (from the subject) its apparent personal attack, I regard

Lets look at this simple constrain to straight line method. I don't know of
other programs which allow pressure sensitivity to work with that although
maybe some do. That might make the tool unique.

We can have a nice long argument about that, because I can show you
artwork made with GIMP, and you wouldn't be able to tell if it was
done with GIMP, Krita, Painter, or

As for the value sliders in Gimp. There was no need to have that dual
slider or that awkward way of having the numerical input above those dual
sliders making selecting these things fiddly. One slider would have
sufficed with key commands to shift it in various increments.

One question to ask is why are Procreate and Photoshop so popular with
digital painters and Photoshop wasn't even originally designed for this?
One major reason for this is the way the internal textures to the brushes
are handled. Photoshop isn't even super fast for painting but this feature

Hi Ryan.
Your collection of pet peeves is impressive. Yet I believe that your
generalization that they must affect everybody is blown way out of
proportion.

appreciate that the app is free open source and developers are working for
free but it seems they are cut off from most users. This is apparent by
simply using the app. Virtually every feature has some kind of usability

What would you suggest to do that we don't already do?
