   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.

• 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

  There's Affinity Designer, too. https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Best website to write a rulebook for ttrpgs

  Affinity Designer (https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/) is a good choice for doing layouts, although Scribus (https://www.scribus.net/) may be all that you need depending on the complexity of your layouts. Source: 12 months ago

• Poster for the Church of Galactic Truths

  Done in Serif Affinity Designer as a learning execise I guess. Source: about 1 year ago

• Easy software to bubble part darwings?

  You'll need inkscape. It's free at inkscape.org. Affinity Designer can do the same job. It's $70 at https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/. Source: about 1 year ago

• PDF viewer/editor for Mac

  If you want to do very sophisticated edits, you can actually use Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer to edit PDF files (but they are obviously terrible readers). Source: about 1 year ago
