While I find Gimp to be an excellent image editing tool overall, there are a few drawbacks that I have encountered.
I particularly appreciate the ability to work with layers and masks, which makes it easy to edit specific parts of an image without affecting the rest. First and foremost, the platform is incredibly versatile, with a wide range of tools and features that allow me to manipulate images in virtually any way I can imagine. There are several things I like about using Gimp for image editing. Overall, I would highly recommend Gimp to anyone in need of a powerful and flexible image editing tool. While it can be challenging to navigate at first, I have found that with practice and experimentation, Gimp offers a wealth of tools and features that allow me to achieve my desired editing outcomes. I appreciate the platform's versatility, customization options, and strong community support. My overall experience using Gimp for image editing has been very positive. Outdated UI - Some tools (shrink, selection) are way more complex and time-consuming - Sometimes the exported result is not of the requested quality(maybe that depends on the user’s skills level) - Absence of Shapes tool which is helpful in Photoshop
Easy installation - Open-source/free software - Includes almost all the essential Photoshop tools CONS Concluding, I would totally recommend GIMP as a Photoshop alternative for simple daily image editing tasks, but I’m not sure if that’s the right tool for professionals. Pros - Easy installation - Open-source/free software - Includes almost all the essential Photoshop tools Cons - Outdated UI - Some tools (shrink, selection) are way more complex and time-consuming - Sometimes the exported result is not of the requested quality(maybe that depends on the user’s skills level) - Absence of Shapes tool which is helpful in Photoshop My comments are about version GIMP 2.10.32. Judging by my overall experience these are the (+) and (-).
More complex tasks such as object selection, cloning, shrinking/growing area, etc. GIMP is suitable for daily micro-tasks such as resizing, blurring, cropping, layers management, rotating, scaling, and background erasing. Although it is a nice Photoshop alternative that copies almost all of its tools, it is obvious that the user interface has a way weaker design, but for an open-source free software, it offers a decent solution. As a digital marketer, I’m using GIMP as an alternative to Photoshop to cover my daily Social Media purposes.
