![]() If working on an illustration from scratch, it really depends on what you want to do, the image style, the goal, etc. So basically you can go from one software to another. Typically a poster could have photography contents (raster, processed with GIMP) with vector designs (created in Inkscape), texts (added in Scribus when layout-ing), etc. Once again, it can be done in GIMP, but often something like Scribus will be a lot more efficient. You may also want to do some actual layout of several images, photos, design elements, etc. Though of course, text can be done in GIMP too. But then if you add design elements, say text or something like this, depending on what you do, it might make sense to switch to a more vector approach (Inkscape or even more a layout software like Scribus). It can be both on the same project.įor instance, when working based on photos, you will want to work on raster (unless your goal is to simplify the photo, like when making some "stylized photo-drawing" or other specific cases). But basically, it's not one OR the other. I mean when I read nonsense like " Tip: You can quickly cut down file size by reducing the resolution to 72 PPI for online images.", I wonder if the author doesn't repeat something heard without understanding what things mean (for online images, the PPI doesn't matter you should really think your images directly in pixel size).įor the question at hand, I would say that with experience, you just know when to use one or another. This article is not completely wrong, but you can feel they are themselves parotting some "common saying" without understanding and giving very generic advices. r/FreeCAD FOSS Parametrical CAD/CAM /r/scribus Desktop Publishing Darktable FOSS tool for photographers r/gmic FOSS image processing framework /r/inkscape Vector-based graphic editor /r/blender 3D modeling, animation, & rendering /r/mypaint painting for digital painters /r/darktable/ photo editing software /r/krita digital painting application /r/synfig FOSS 2D Animation /r/FOSSPhotography Folks who use all the above /r/libredesign changing the paradigm Other Links of Interest Outreach through well written tutorials, presentation etc.Help test and triage bugs in the bugtracker.Alexander Prokoudine - /u/alexlg ( LGW Founder) ( patreon) Ways to Assist GIMP.YouTube Channel spamming will not be tolerated.CSS help provided by /u/Cheesydude All about the GNU Image Manipulation Program
