Typically when I’m working with photos, I’m doing graphic design type work. I’ve been using GIMP for this. GIMP is meant for raster graphics editing.
You could also use Inkscape for vector graphics, or Krita for more digital painting type work. But I know all these tools are very powerful and overlap on some use cases.
Do you use any AI-type tools? I use a image upscaler called Upscayl. It works really well and works entirely locally.
Do you know of any tools that can remove backgrounds? This would help with help with the type of graphic design I do.
What other tools do you like to use as it pertains to images?
GIMP for most general stuff, Krita for painting and 2D animation, Aseprite for pixel everything.
Krita has tools for 2D animation? I need to look into that.
I forgot about Asesprite! Thats a great tool.
Aseprite was originally licensed under GPL but later made propretary. The fork of the last GPL version is called Libresprite but it doesnt have much activity, I dont think.
Well, it still is OSS and one can still compile from source code. Or you can buy your binary. Never heard of Libresprite but looks fine if you absolutely want FOSS.
