   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.

• Can you help a CLI & SD novice?

  I'm trying to use this "SD > Vector image" model. (linked here) To do so, I must have "potrace" installed. (linked here). Source: 11 months ago

• Dear Websites, Stop Asking for Ransom Sign-Ups

  As the author mentions PNG to SVG conversion, there is Potrace [1]. I think you need to convert to BMP before. It's a pretty nice tool. I have used it a couple of times. [1] https://potrace.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Anyone knows about a good PNG to SVG API?

  The answer to your question is Potrace. There's probably a wrapper API available for whatever language you're using (presumably Python), or you can simply run it as a command line tool. Potrace is used behind the scenes for image tracing in Inkscape, the most popular open source vector design app, and I've also seen it used in a plugin someone built for Stable Diffusion/A1111 that does exactly what you're trying...

• 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: about 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
