Gimp sucks. That's why people on Linux rather use krita to edit photos and it wasn't even built to do that.
Gimp is a horrible mistake that should literally be killed off and it should be put into a failure museum to serve as a warning and a reminder how Foss can take a wrong turn and many free development hours are spent towards building the wrong things and continue to disappoint any user that tries it.
You don't get it.
If you're not spending hours trying to figure out how to do the most basic shit then it's not for you, pal. Ever heard the expression pressure turns coal into diamonds?
That's right.
That's because we're not bitch ass pussies. Last night I spent five hours trying to merge some layers, and you know what? Worth it! I read the docu, had a back and forth with the developers and after they threatened to kill my family I got it. I'm now a proud member of the Gimp Club Tm (choker and gag ball not included).
Ya gotta give to get some, Shirley. Now move over, I need to block out the rest of the day so I can figure out how to export a PNG.
Got to love it when people think they’re making a statement when they’re really just exposing themselves.
Merging layers? There’s a button on the layer window that does just that. You can also right click -> merge.
Exporting PNGs? File -> Export -> File Type at bottom of the window -> PNG
Not that hard unless you’re somehow incredibly inept.
Woosh. I love how this comment went over 99% of you people. You're so predictable.
Do you really think I couldn't figure out how to export a goddamn PNG?
Most people that complain about GIMP don’t actually know that.
