• Opinions on character details?

  Thanks man, I gotta blend/blur out those far away flowers. It kinda looks like those flowers are an optical illusion! I use firealpaca, it's a free app https://firealpaca.com/ (used Krita previously but I didn't like it). I draw on a $40 huion tablet that's about the size of a sheet of paper.

• What (PC) apps do yall use for drawing?

  You can download it for free on their website or buy it on Steam for a few bucks. Source: about 1 year ago

• About recoloring stuff

  Hey guys! So I've been receiving some comments about the spritepacks and stuff- I'm actually afraid of sharing them since it could be seen as stealing and changing someone's job. I'm not great at coding- like at all. I've tried python once and.. I'm really bad at it. But I could actually show you how I recolor all those ribbons, dresses, even hair.. Mostly anything! I use FireAlpaca - a free painting software. Source: about 1 year ago

• Any creatives struggle with creating clutter?

  For anyone wanting to try digital art for cheap, I've been using the free program Firealpaca for over a year and love it. Better than photoshop for my purposes by far, lightweight enough to run smoothly but has a ton of great features. I also got a little Huion tablet for around $30 that works wonderfully. Tablets are so much better than they used to be, at half the price! Source: over 1 year ago

• A language map of the Nordics including my Uralic conlang; Cavitic!

• How to tag and store pictures downloaded from the internet?

  Digikam seems ideal for this https://digikam.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• What are your favorite methodologies for organizing digital life

  I have all of my photos (with the exception of smartphone photos... ugh) in a nicely constructed set of folders \photos\yyyy\yyyymmmdd\ then the folder made by the camera, etc. I've got a small python script to generate the folders. I use Digikam[1] to do facial recognition and tagging on them. It's finally gotten to the point where it doesn't crash all the time writing metadata, and the facial recognition is... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• are there any free self-hosted DAMs like Adobe Experience Manager [AEM]?

  I use digikam for my own personal library. I’m not sure if it’s able to be run from a server, but I know you can hook up a NAS to it to manage it. Can tag photos, rank, organize, etc. Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for a simple Photo manager/DAM for not photos advice?

  Check out digiKam. It has photo editing tools as well, but the main focus is photo management. Also it is free and open source. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Looking for a way to tag my photo collection with keywords

  But with that many photos, I'd suggest a more fully featured digital asset management (DAM) program. Lightroom (paid), DigiKam, or DarkTable (both free) are good choices. PhoTool's IMatch (paid) also uses exiftool and is extremely powerful with regards to metadata. Source: about 2 years ago
