I usually use GIMP when I need photoshop, because I used GIMP for so long so when my school teachers tell me to use photoshop, I can never use it (the larger parts anyway). so I secretly use gimp. its free and easier to use than photoshop, so I like it.

I tried GIMP once. I downloaded it... and I really liked the simple interface...! biggrin
Then I got to working on this EPIC art, it was like... the best think I had ever done! And GIMP crashed and I lost it. ; n ;
And since then I just can't use it anymore. crying

That's happened to me too. There is a user mod that can program the "auto save" feature, but it's not part of the original program. Right now, my biggest problem is that it doesn't want to work with file sizes over 1.5MB. But still, free is free, and it works pretty well...when it works. ^_^

I think GIMP is great for those who don't want to pay out the butt for a good art program!

I am a very proud Gimper. It has crashed on me more times than I can count, but I just learned to save often.
So far, it is the best free drawing program I have found and I really enjoy using it.

GIMP is a great free alternative for Photoshop biggrin
It has a great range of user-created brushes (as well as being compatible with most user-created Photoshop brushes) and plugins, especially GIMP FX Foundry and GIMP Paint Studio.

I've worked with Sai and have been trained in PS Elements, cs3, and cs5. I've used Corel and a few other random programs, but I always return to gimp Gimp is a simple, user-based program that is endlessly customizable. I'm actually an artist by profession and I prefer this program over the competition. As example

Crayola is still on the top of my favorite art supplies list I can't resist crayons either. ^_^ Right now I'm having trouble with my style. I've identified the source of the trouble--I'm too detail oriented. My pictures come out stiff, like still lifes or just too posed. So I'm practicing gesture drawings to try to loosen up. razz
