I can't believe I can't find a good Paint app for iPad like Windows Paint. I tried several apps, including the most well ranked, but all of them lacks something. For example, I can't find an app to stamp two photos from photo album Into canvas, and move them, rotate, etc No cut and paste? You know, the old cut something from a picture and paste on another picture or on another place in the same picture?
The app is very powerful, and is more of a Photoshop alternative, than a Paint alternative, but due to its ease of use, and the fact that it’s freely available, it is a viable alternative for Paint on Mac. The app comes with a number of advanced features, along with all the basic tools available in MS Paint. Is there a program like Microsoft Paint? [duplicate] Ask Question 250. In my opinion, the other question address the requirements for a MS Paint similar app. Look at the accepted answers of both questions, they recommend the same app! But, as you say, someone might look for a different point of view.
Cut to photo album? Paste from Photo Album? I know there are many painting apps with layers, and drawing effects, but if Ive got two funny pictures I want to put together into one, add some text, a few lines here, a circle there and upload to my blog, I can't. I have to wait until I sit in front of my PC and start good old Paint.
It's the future! I know I can do all I did on Paint on an iPad. The hardware is here, gimme the functionality!!
Adobe Photoshop is one of the most popular photo editing software out there used by both professionals to create and edit masterful images, and yours truly who just need it for basic image manipulation. No matter which side of the fence you’re on, I’m sure you’ve at least tried Photoshop. However, due to Adobe’s Creative Cloud subscription, Photoshop can prove to be quite expensive for people just getting into photo editing. Plus, with the plethora of tools on offer in Photoshop, it can be quite tough to use. So, if you are looking for a Photoshop alternative that’s easier to use or a free Photoshop alternative for your Windows PC, Mac, Linux machine or even your Android or iOS device, well we have you covered. No history tool.
Patch tool lags on larger images (I tried 1200×1600). Text tool isn’t as feature rich as Photoshop’s. No Camera RAW filter. File Support: PNG, BMP, GIMP, TIF, TGA, JPEG, WEBP and more Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux Price: Free; optional paid version available to support developers 2. GIMP One of the topmost recommendations you’d read for a tool like Photoshop is GIMP, and for good reason. GIMP, or GNU Image Manipulation Program is a very feature rich photo editing and creative tool that can do almost everything that Photoshop can, and brings in everything from the popular Adobe software to a free and open-source software. However, GIMP isn’t my top choice for a Photoshop alternative because it has a bunch of issues as well, most annoying of which is the fact that multiple preset brushes share the same settings, which gets annoying if you’re constantly switching between brushes.
Also, GIMP doesn’t have the drawing capabilities of Photoshop. It’s free though, and is definitely worth a look-see if you’re in the market for a free Photoshop alternative. Pros:. Comprehensive layer support with blending modes. Supports Rulers and Guides. Supports image slicing.
History toolbar. Gimp has many issues. While you can make preset brushes, the brushes themselves to not have separate settings so you have to repeatedly load the formatting to each brush each time you swap. So say you are swapping to the eraser from the brush, has the same formatting as the brush. This is annoying and takes up a bit more time.
I use Gimp to edit pictures I make on other alternatives. Gimp does give you the ability to edit as if you are using Photoshop but doesn’t have the drawing capability of other programs IMO just because of this tedious problem by itself. The Best alternative to photoshop for the very cheap cost is Corel Paint Shop Pro I use it for many years, upgrading to a newer version almost every year. I’m a professional photographer and digital artist.
I’m advanced photoshop user as well. But Paint shop pro is a program I use 90% of the time. It is much lighter(faster and easy to use in terms of conrols). For me there is nothing I can’t do in it that I want to. It does everything that photoshop does and even more (for example I like the fact that I can zoom image in and out just by rolling my mouse, instead of using the key to zoom in photoshop, I can do much more with finger tool and so on.). The only thing you may have issue with, if you like me use a lot of large files at once and keep program open 24/7, it may start to run out of memory and don’t run plugins (yes photoshop plugins do work with this program). But most people don’t use it this heavy I guess.
I know there is tons of tutorials on their site, if someone want to see if it is a right fit. NOt sure if they have a free trial version, but if somoene is interested they can check.
Funny how the writer calls ‘Paint Shop Pro’ an alternative, however paint shop pro was and is the leading profit earner in this category, more than Photoshop. Photoshop is the alternative. It gets’ royalties from Adobe for use of patents, just like Corel does with Microsoft word from WordPerfect (which imho is a way better product). Photopaint is the highest grossing graphic design app on the planet all they have to do is put a product in the market to hold on to their patent. How’s that for smart!
