Anon doesn’t know how to draw a circle in GIMP
Skill issue
But seriously, how do you do it?
Circular selection, fill?
Or, for an annulus: circular selection, border, enter border width, fill.
Or, for any selection in general: edit, stroke selection.
Circular selection, fill?
Isn’t that how you do that in Photoshop?
For a certified maniac there’s also one bump of a brush with 100% hardness and using gradient tool, radial, with no actual gradations.
And if you are feeling like killing a school bus of puppies, you can put a coin or a mug to the screen with one hand while drawing around it with the other, using a live mouse, biting you, as you move it and hallucinate the formation of the ideal circular form.
No, most of the times for shapes in Photoshop you’d use the shape tool, which can generate them in raster, or better, as paths, allowing you to modify them later non-destructively.
I loved how non-destructive placement of existing graphics works but I can’t remember when I used the shape tool in PS without going straight to AI for it’s shape-building anchor-induced shenanigans. Can you tell what use besides non-pixelated masks you’ve used in your workflow? It’s the only application I can think of, but that’s maybe because my field of use is too narrow.
I dunno, I haven’t used it in years. You could create objects from layers of shapes with effects applied to them, together with masks and such, for example. TBH I almost never used the basic shapes, I’d mostly create paths with the pen.
The thing with Photoshop is that it’s such a large software that nobody uses all of it, but every part is used by somebody.
Thanks.

Same with other their products. For me it’s a permanent love-hate perception of Adobe for they are making these cool tools but are very, very greedy. Yet, I still can’t really get into other tools that don’t copy them.
No idea about Photoshop, never got to use it. The last piece of bitmap graphic editing software I used other than Gimp was Micrografx Picture Publisher 4/5, and that has been a while.
I’ll admit I do see some quality of life features in Photoshop though, plus I’d like to play around with some of the “AI” feature for infilling etc.
That being said, from what I gather from OP, there seems to be a circular shape tool that saves 2-3 clicks when drawing a circle in PS? Looking at the pros/cons, not a convincing argument, but then again, I don’t look at memes for any meaningful argument or a reasonable discussion.
I wasn’t writing this comment seriosly, but there’s also a shape tool, but it’s rather weird and sits at the bottom of the toolbar so I don’t feel like many professional users really care about it.
No worries, I got that from the second part.
For an anus? Nice
Fill ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
The same way you do it in Photoshop, really
Choose the circular pattern on the pencil tool and set the width to your desired diameter.
Krita has an ellipse tool which turns into circle with shift (ctrl and alt and ctr+alt also do nice things) but I wasn’t even aware of it existing before looking right now. It’s probably also been my first time opening Krita without wearing a tablet glove.
Got to say that I had some trouble with that on gimp, but it’s possible!
I like how stock photoshop refuses to run with wine not because Adobe cares about linux but because of the insane amount of DRM that harasses you on Windows.
Meaning pirated photoshop runs fine on wine lol
I think there’s even a github script to do it all for you with gpu acceleration enabled so you don’t have to even bother finding a pirate copy.
Or just use Photoshop online works for me
Where would one find this script?

This is 2021 and 2022, not sure if someone has mad a newer one.

Okay but starting a lesson on Photoshop with the circle tool is like starting a lesson on Word with inserting a table. If working with abstract shapes is your modus operandi something like Illustrator or Inkscape makes a lot more sense as a tool.
Also beating up your students on the parking lot sound very fun to end the day but have no value in education
Nanny state
The beatings will continue until Photoshop is mastered.
Dude… idk if I know if I’ve ever seen a more accurate simile than that. Equally “buggy*”, frustrating, and absurd if you have little to no experience with it
*idr word tables well but I suspect it was like pen tool where it wasn’t so much buggy as it’s hard to make it work right if you don’t get it yet
i like the one about anon compiling a very minimal kernel on arch and whoops cant present to class because hdmi out doesnt work lol
Some of my more memorable experiences in gentoo over the years have been from trying to trim everything I can out from my kernel. It tends to work, until it doesn’t.
Anon went on to develop Krita.
Krita >>> gimp Fight me
Don’t mess with the BSD gang, let this be a lesson to anon.
Stealing from 4chan, we really are reddit’s child.
This is literally the greentext community; where else is the content supposed to come from?
Just joking, because people used to complain about this for whatever reason on reddit, and 4chan.
Lol in hungary we used gimp because the school couldnt afford photoshop(it was one of the best schools in the country).
If it gets the job done, then it’s fine, right
Yeah it works for me but for professional work it probably wouldnt.
Idk, I use it quite often, also for my job
Pretty sure Krita is the go to for professional work on linux now.
Shits expensive AF.

Meanwhile several others tried to buy Photoshop on their proprietary systems but couldn’t afford it. They opened Paint.
pirating it is pretty fast & easy
Not even closely. At least getting it not bitch about not being “genuine” after a few minutes.
Other Adobe products? Yeah they are easy.
it was a breeze for me, just followed the guide and bam, works perfectly. Even my add-ons weren’t fussy about it
And secure?
I’ve found they tend to work until they don’t. I saw one that worked for a year, and then something changed and it started birching about being non genuine
And even they could draw a circle. Poor anon.
No wonder they beat them up on the parking lot.
Anon appreciates the chaturbate ads embedded in his start menu
I actually remember trying to draw a circle with gimp one time. It was actually completely fucked. I was looking for stroke selection or something like that. I never drew the goddamn Circle. Fuck you that shit sucks
From memory …
Select tool and draw circle.
Select option menu then click ‘to path’
Unselect all
Somewhere nearby there is a fill stroke to path or something.
Yeah…I’m considering going over to paint.net or something else.
Krita is fabulous!
Is this the most reposted greentext?
Photopea
if it had a lifetime license I wouldnt actually mind paying!

Is nobody going to ask how Anon getting beat up in the parking lot is relevant to the story? There’s no indication that Anon’s classmates followed them out to the parking lot. The incident feels more random.
Am I overthinking this instead of drifting off to sleep? Most likely.
Of course it happened exactly like that. Nobody would ever just make shit up on 4chan, right?
The joke is that Anon is a very irresistibly punchable sort of person and so of course they would be a victim of violence. A common theme in greentexts is projected anxiety about peer rejection for not conforming.
Anon has backpfeifengesicht.
Isn’t this greentext mocking Linux users? Am I not understanding and the author’s perspective is actually that they like Linux but feel ostracized?

Yes

Probably, how else would they accurately identify specific limitations with it that someone who doesn’t use it would probably gloss over? It’s some combination of self loathing and playing on the insecurities of the reader to bait a response.
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
I guess what is being implied is that Anon is an insufferable “linux is better then windows” nerd and that the bullying is therefore “justified”.
But don’t read too much into it, it’s just a funny 4chan haha greentext.
Yeah, it’s just funny haha. So just go to sleep 😴.
