Gimp or Photoshop

[Sam1]

Same here, I dont do graphics and stuff, but got to use it on a friends laptop and I liked it.
Gimp! I just don't like it, maybe because I don't know how to use it efficiently, but i don't like it. I used it once on mint, when I had dual booted my PC.

It's definitely not as snazzy as photoshop but it has most of the functionality!

Photoshop, for sure. It has tons of features, and it's built for design, which helps a lot. Gimp is a great alternative, however PS is the way to go if you can get it

I use Photoshop CS3 but the price of any CS version is ridiculously expensive. I can understand why many would go with cheaper alternatives like Gimp.

 

[Southern Comfort]

Photoshop for me, I've actually never even seen how GIMP looks like. I hear that it's a fairly good alternative though.

 

[Gytix]

Has to be Photoshop, like Southern said; I've never used GIMP either.. sounds like a shit version of Photoshop.

So I'm the only one that spends $2,500 on software I'll never use?
Well, my wallet feels empty now.

Most linux guys use Gimp. You can say it does its job thats all.
Not too much fancy options or tools. Just the basic work!

I actually used GIMP for the first time a few weeks ago and my God, I found it terrible, haha. Maybe it was because I am too used to Photoshop though..

Photoshop user since May 2005. To be honest...I've never used Gimp.

I have been using Photoshop Cs3. It is good and user friendly for designing.

 

[acer7]

I use photoshop.Its easy to use and has many features.

 

[Lim jackey]

I use GIMP! Because it is free and i am use to it.

Gimp user here...
More importantly, the output is what matters, so my money is always on the artist not the tool.
The amount of features, usability, supported platforms/operating systems, extendability with code, macros, workflow are all somewhat irrelevant.
just my $0.02

I don't have money to buy PhotoShop and i can do anything with GIMP! I am fully satisfied with it and just search for plugins to expand its features. It is free, open source and highly professional!

 

[milksheikh]

Photoshop is the better software, but I will say Gimp since it is free and is not bad itself for creating graphics.

 

[iPhonefreak]

I would take Photoshop anyday over GIMP, but for the value, GIMP would do for now.

 

[milksheikh]

GIMP is a great software honestly, it is hard to understand at first thats why I prefer you look at tutorials to learn about the software and how to do everything.
