GIMP vs Krita Which is Better 

I'm loving Krita for digital drawing. GIMP seems to get the job done but it's clearly focused on the image editing and manipulation. Drawing isn't the main focus.

Krita for drawing art, Gimp for photo editing.

As a digital painter, and a long time GIMP user (for other stuff), I'd vote Krita. It just seems a better managed app (GIMP still deserves tons of respect though too)

Why not both? I use every free art program

thanx a lot! Very good video on spot and easy to perceive. Covers pretty much all questions I had regarding these software.

None is better. Krita is for drawing/painting and Gimp is a full featured graphics editor. Both can be used for drawing though, but Krita seem to have advanced brushes to simulate real painting tools of all sorts and as I can see on many artworks people are taking advantage of this making the artworks look original. If someone creates all sorts of digital art it's nice to have few different programs that will serve certain purpose. For pixel art theres another program called GrafX2 which resembles Deluxe Paint on the Amiga. Free software for graphics creators, musicians and writers is pretty amazing now.

this was the comparison i was looking for thanks

thanks for answering my questions

Very useful guide to these to, tvm

I begin my professional artistic journey so I think glimpse is good for me as I. am more focussed on photo and mixed art this means image manipulation: And it is free for me it is a big advantage. Thank you for this video

Having both with g'mic plugin and you will end a good combo to a Photoshop alternative.

Hi Wayne! Please let me ask, can I upload any kind of Photo and change anything that I want of it? Mean Color, Shape , Mimic etc...??? Thanks forwards

Krita or Krita? Krita

I liked this EXCEPT THAT often, while she is talking about Gimp the video is showing Krita being used and vice versa. That was not at all helpful.

thank you

I'm feeling kinda down, everyone saying gimp isn't good for drawing meanwhile I've been using it in the past 10 years drawing 💀

How about having both in your PC?

Hi! Would you care to take a closer look at the Affinity programs, and do some content on that? Also you got a little mistake in your thumbnail. Says Krita under both logos, instead of GIMP under the right one ;)

02:17 Why are you showing video's of adobe illusrator while talking about gimp ?

Update from 2023: You can move the dockesr around in Krita too and make your own workspaces. Krita has pre-set corel draw and photoshop key shortcuts in case you come from one or both programs 4:56 THIS WAS SIMPLEMMO'S LOGO QWQ 7:00 Krita's Photo manipulation tools are way to basic, and the team behind krita states that Krita is focused on digital painting.

I use them both + inkscape

On the bainting?

What is being show in the thumbnail is actually a fork called gimp-painter

GIMP is more focused on photo editing and manipulation but on the other hand, Krita is focused on digital drawing, painting and scratching so choose accordingly and... Those who are saying it have custom brushes, etc don't mean it is focused on painting, you can use it for painting like a Gogar but I think GIMP main purpose for that is to use it for photo manipulation and editing too rather than painting with it... And the opposite goes with Krita! 👍

your thumbnail says Krita vs Krita

Do I require a tablet with a digital pen. Or I can do it with mouse? I have a laptop. Or do I need that digital writing pad?

Please answer do these softwares require stylus and and which devices can they be operated. Do I require a drawing tablet for this. Please answer my questions

I watched this video mted with subtitle because i was in class. And i couldn't help but notice that the word "gimp" never showed up where it should have. idk if someone paid youtube to ban this word or something but this made the video hard to interpret.

I'm probably the only one still using gimp-painter

How to download After Effects on Anroid phone?

What software specifications are need to run on the device. And does it require GPU?

Just tried both to substitute Photoshop, but I didn´t like them...Gimp is easier to work than Krita my opinion, maybe I should try once more and learn something else.

I hate the trend towards colorless interfaces. God, I hate it so much.

They're not enemies - they're brothers

Gimp is not like Photoshop at all. A completely different philosophy of photo manipulation. Did you use Gimp at all before making the video. While Krita is very similar to photoshop and you can easily switch from Krita to photoshop and vice versa, while from photoshop to gimp is very difficult, the learning curve is very different.

I would say precisely the opposite - especially GIMP interface is catastrophic. Although I would agree Adobe interface inherited from Mac world is a bit misleading, too. After abandoning "many windows" interface GIMP is a bit better but still much worse than any reasonable alternative. For Windows users, Corel is closest to cleanest interface and to what they are used to. That's why I left Inkscape after a years of trying to stick only to it and returned to DRAW! - the work is much faster. The same applies to Photo Paint and Painter. Interface of PaintShop Pro is a bit "popular" but still OK. Apart of that, what these open source alternatives are usually missing is strictly defined, well designed, clean architecture. Plugins instaled anywhere and hard to find when you are trying to uninstall/reinstall them, features are added not based on user requests but on individual likings of developers, many missing for years. Well, that can be also a problem with commercial software, but to get sales, they must hear what users want a bit more.

...and CMYK?

I used to like csp till ofc it hecame subscription based

The key is both.

Buffalo art !!!!

Nagraaj 🤔

1:06 "but in general framework that shapes them" ohkayyy 6:26 "9 different brush engines" wow, thats a lot

They're made for different things.

to save time gimp=PS krita=AI

even paint is better than gimp

I dont like gimp. sometimes the instruments are gone, sometimes i cant draw. sorry, GIMP.😔

Acts 2:17-21 New International Version 17 “‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 18 Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. 19 I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. 20 The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. 21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’[a]

Galatians 5:22-23 New International Version 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
