I remember over a decade ago when I was upset I couldn’t get photoshop working on my installation of Ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron. I remember when I couldn’t play the games my friends were playing on Ubuntu and had to switch over to windows. I remember there was just audacity for audio editing on Linux and gimp for photo editing.
Now I have krita which is better than the photoshop I cut my teeth on (6 beta, 7, 8, and then up to like cs3). Audour which is so much better than cool edit pro 3.0 and audition. I can play my games, the best dev tools are on Linux, and nearly everything is open source.
Just a small reminder that Linux is absolutely thriving right now. It’s so cool to see! Gimp has always been there and it is still getting better and better!
Now if valve would just hurry up and start making phones!
See that valve, Gimp knows how to count to 3
eh, close enough.
Oh man I remember when they said it was a couple of months away like it was two years ago!
But seriously, I’ve been looking forward to this, lots of great changes!
Today is also the day that I learned that if you want to use drag to resize an image in GIMP instead of typing in the px size you just press ctrl T and then ctrl S and drag boxes will appear on your selected image layer
Does the scale tool not work?
Nice! I’ve been looking forward to this.
I thought they released it months ago, like nearly a year ago.
“… the initial development version of GIMP 3.0 was released in 2020 …”
Hmm, I’ll have to download the update tonight after work, I can’t wait to play around with this long awaited GIMP update!
I think they should make it so it’s easy to import images from AI toolkits, or better, deeply integrate with InvokeAI/ComfyUI/Automatic1111
I mean, if you have gimp open, you can literally just drag the image into gimp. What would you want for it to be easier than that?
Krita allows you to make a selection and then infill it, or outfill it, or whatever the jargon is. It is pretty handy, and a ship that GIMP is missing out on
Yes. I want that to be much faster than that. Working with AI is usually an iterative process, which means a lot of importing-exporting back and forth. Drag and drop is just too slow and too cumbersome. Ideally there should be a mode where image is fully synchronized in real time between GIMP and AI toolkit.
You ai people are just insufferable
Is this “They took our jobs!” thing?
Not even remotely, just a thing I noticed about people who use AI art. They don’t like to put in effort, they want someone else to do the work for them, constantly. Your responses in this thread hint that you have no interest at all in actively working towards new solutions to your problems, you just whinge and then say “Well, what can I do? It’s their problem!”
Too lazy to learn painting? Nah, too lazy to save and open .png files.
I don’t think “they should”, but if you’re willing / able to at least make a decent description of what it would entail, how it would work, and how it would benefit users, and possibly contribute in some other way, it might happen!
(It’ll take more than a sentence and a half from the sidelines, I think)
I’m not a developer, I don’t even know what are you exactly expecting here. This is a comment section, not a github repo
Why don’t you develop?
Because I do other things for living
iirc, there’s an addon for it somewhere.
That sounds like it’d be better suited as a plugin tbh. All this AI stuff moves fast, GIMP moves slow
