HyReZ Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 (edited) @PixeyThat thread has been locked for a year and then the info was two years old.  @MimiYour best bet is to do a Google and a Youtube search for info in this area!  I use Krita!https://krita.org/en/features/highlights/ Edited May 18, 2019 by HyReZ Quote  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimi Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 @HyReZ thank you. Personally, what do you think about Krita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyReZ Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I like it, I use it, its free, and the new version supports SVG! Look for video tutorials at their site and around the Internet to see what others are doing with it. Quote  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the graphics tablets being sold now are less than three years old. The fact the link was closed was due to comments to the creator of the thread, that they would have selected a graphics tablet between then and now.  In the link that you provided is a reference to Krita. In my response I recommended the use of Krita, which has been around since 2005 and the current version is better than ever. In fact I have been using Paint.NET, Adobe Photoshop, and Corel Draw for over a decade. They are all better than they were 10 years ago!@MimiAny listing of best graphics illustration software would be subjective, but I would include Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, and Krita. It is not just the tool but the user too! Michelangelo would do far better with a box of Crayola's than any preschooler! 🙂 Edited May 18, 2019 by HyReZ Quote  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Actually, the real answer to @Mimi's Question is obviously PAINT.net   1 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixey Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 So we were talking about Graphic Tablets after all 🙄 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Krita does many things well, but two things it excels at is Brushes and Drawing Tablet support. So, for those two to things, I recommend Krita above all. In all other cases, I recommend Paint.NET Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.

Reptillian Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) For PDN users, you could use Krita to convert files since it supports just about every blending modes in existence in v4.2(other than lazpaint, Krita is the only one that supports every pdn modes as xor do not exist in ps or affinity or gimp)Â and PDN users aren't likely to get them soon. Plugins don't solve issues with PDN blending modes. The latest ora allows for interchangeability(w/ shortcomings)Â but it really is best to have a filetype plugin for this purpose.

Mimi Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 thanks guys for your very helpful and constructive comments. Yeah, looking for the best software which can support pressure sensitivity. Krita seems to be a great option, and it's for free 😂😂 I'm also curious to know any experience using Corel Painter 2019 or Affinity Designer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
