I doubt I can convince my wife to let me install ceiling lighting, so it has to be overhead. But the blue tint is a great suggestion, thanks!

Thanks, but I’m not necessarily looking for what lighting was like back then as much as I am looking for the best light to show off what they look like, which might not necessarily be the same thing. So I guess I need to know that first.

Oh yeah, I agree. Photoshop will probably continue to dominate, at least for the foreseeable future. The same with Premiere vs. Resolve. Resolve is free (and, in my opinion, pretty much on par with Premiere in most applications), but Adobe has the money.

I’m not surprised at least some of it applies, but I’m not sure what still applies and what doesn’t without looking it all up. But I do understand their general point.

I would note that the reply is 3 years old and many things have changed in the interim, so I think an updated reply would be warranted for a good comparison.

Now that is an advantage of Gimp over Photoshop. They aren’t trying to bake AI into Gimp. There are AI plugins, but you don’t have to have that shit built into your image editor if you pick Gimp over Photoshop.

I wonder if that’s why Gimp also has different hotkeys than Photoshop in some instances. Some of them seem pretty arbitrary. Like E is ellipse select in Gimp but eraser in Photoshop. The latter seems more intuitive to me.

You don’t have to pay for it.

But they don’t like mentioning that part.

Edit: Having used both, the only real disadvantage I can see when it comes to Gimp in a Photoshop vs. Gimp comparison- apart from special cases- is that Gimp (for me anyway) has a higher learning curve. I end up having to look up how to do something more often with Gimp. But not having to pay Adobe a monthly fee makes up for that.

That makes a lot of sense.

No worries.

Yeah, but folks, flattered as I am, I don’t want to be an admin!

Loneliness is a real problem today. I guess we’re both suffering from it.

I knew I was doing Lemmy wrong. Thanks.

I wish I had a person to talk to in person or on the phone, but unfortunately I don’t. The closest I have is personal friends I can talk to via social media (none of them live in this shitty town). My wife is out with a friend tonight, so the best I could do would be the 14-year-old child that I still allow to live here (although sometimes I wonder why). I have a feeling she’ll want to talk about modern slang again since that’s been what she’s wanted to talk about today and I just can’t take having her read to me more from the big list of 2024 slang she found me. I tried to talk to her about 1940s jive slang to get her on a different but related subject. Didn’t work.

I’m as unqualified as you, I’m sure. I don’t fit any of the bonus skills and I have no background in conflict resolution. I apparently am a cause of conflict if anything.

Anyway, I don’t think either of us is getting the gig, but I’m glad we both try to make Lemmy a better place.

Sorry, it’s been a long day.

Well apparently I’m not positive or productive, so I guess I’m not qualified after all.

Oh, trying to make me put in an honest day’s work, huh? Okay then, just for that, I nominate BonesOfTheMoon!

Wah? Huh? Me? Admin? I don’t know anything about web design or legal compliance or social media marketing or anything. I’m flattered though, thanks.
