   A real winner for graphic tablets !

   I use Mypaint since many years, for graphic palets worskhops with children , and I have just positive feelings about it. Many tools, rather easy to use, and great compatibility with my Wacom. Recommanded.

• Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?

  I have an XP-Pen as well. Works great in Linux. I'm still amazed at how high quality these non-Wacom tablets are today. I had one of those cheap 6" Wacom Graphites back in the early 2000s and that was the best you could get. My XP-Pen blows that thing away. Still haven't found a great place to put it though. I'm just stashing it off to the side but it's awkward moving it around all the time. If you're on Linux,... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Image viewer with annotations (etc add rectangle)

  I use Gromit-MPX. With it you can toggle "painting mode" with a hotkey (e.g. F9), making your screen essentially a big whiteboard on which you can draw in various colors and thiccnessess. Source: about 3 years ago

• What drawing app should I use>

  Mypaint is the most lightweight software ive used, but it doesnt have the same level of community support as krita, so some features may be lacking... Source: over 1 year ago

• Good god, this took me a week! What do you think? any feedback and time saving tips?

  Essentially, I've found the more time you have to spend spend learning the apps and/or using its tools, the less time you have to actually enjoy the art of creating. Try apps that cut down the friction between you and your art; Krita, MyPaint, etc. Would be my first suggestions since they're free, then maybe ArtRage, or Sketchbook Pro if money is not a concern.

• Add custom color palettes to GIMP and Inkscape

  Note: The .gpl format is also supported by Aseprite, Drawpile, Krita and MyPaint. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Simple Art Program for Linux (not professional program)

  Mypaint (http://mypaint.org/) is simpler to use than Krita. Krita can be 'simplified' a bit by closing some of the unnecessary docked tools on the right. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Alternatives for Paint.net?

  Take a look at MyPaint or look here to see if something tickles your fancy. Source: over 2 years ago
