Hi everyone,
Im the Noob!
(installed Gimp 2.8 and then 2.9 yesterday!)
I personally like the new look of Gimp 2.9 a lot!!
I'm using PS since over 20 years now (I started with PS version 2.5
) and tried Gimp a couple of times before, but always gave it up because of the (in my opinion) waaaay to "clumpsy" and colourful UI. In my opinion the only coloured thing in an Image Editor Software should be the artwork! The UI should be as decreet and "invisible" as possible.
Yesterday I saw a screenshot of 2.9 and immediatly had this "WOW... must have that now impulse"!
The new iconset adds this little bit of "sexyness" to the program that a good Image Editor needs... For me creativity starts with cool and good looking Tools... if the Tool looks uggly its hard to make "good looking" artworks. I mean its an art-tool!! Of course thats only personal taste...
I hope I can replace PS with Gimp this time and use it in my production pipeline!
Have a nice day!
cya
