So I saw that Krita could be used for making photo manipulations, but was wondering how good the tools are for making them? I know it offers a wide variety of tools, but I also know that it's mainly for drawing/painting with rather than editing. :P Just was wondering!

it couldnt even get it to work try windows sketch coupled with GIMP slap that photo on GIMP first then do what you want to it then slap it on windows sketch on window sketch you can change file size but DONT CHANGE IT IN THE MIDDLE OF A HARD PROJECT or one at all save it and then change file size because you will lose the photo you are editing then if it does happen to erase it all click your files and re slap the photo back on the newly started one you are in the middle of then you should be ok i make tons of free hand art that way and you can add effects to a point on GIMP

I would use GIMP, seeing that it is on my computer, but it lags the ever living shit out of it and I don't like the layout. It's confusing and seems so out of place and hard to use :P

I personally would reach out to the artist Dense Moors on this subject. She's used Krita before and I'm sure she would be happy to provide some perspective. There's also another user by the nickname of Toasty but I can't remember their stable name at the moment <3 Edit: Found it. The stable name is Toasty Horses though it doesn't look like she's been online in a little while Edited at June 29, 2021 11:13 PM by Gem

Not the best in general, or not the best for making manips?

In general I don't reccomend it, I only use it to size images down, I use kleki which is a lot better when you learn how to navigate it

As someone who uses Krita for their manips, I love it. Obviously people have different experiences, but mine have all been good. I do repaint my horses so I am utilizing that drawing focus of it a lot more than editing, but I find it fairly easy to edit backgrounds to whatever extent I choose. It can lag a computer some, but the only lag I've come across is when trying to run several programs that use a lot of CPU or memory. It can be tricky to learn, but considering I was using Medibang before, I find its a tools a lot more useful for doing manips. Plus, I think I actually adapted to using it faster than I did with Medibang, as I'd used that program for a few years and it took me awhile to figure out a lot of the features. Whether you have a good experience may simply depend on the computer you run it with. Krita is fairly similar to photoshop, having several similar filters and features, but does have a larger focus on drawing. They are still adding features that photoshop has, and doesn't have as big of a brush database as some drawing programs simply because I don't know of a lot of people that use it besides myself and and a couple others.
