Nice instructive video. Another way to stroke text is to use the "select by color" tool with the shift key to select all text, then go to Edit > Stroke Selection.

I don't use Photoshop. Hasn't been using it for something about 20 years. But as far as I remember how swatches worked in PS (these 20 yrs ago), GIMP has its analog. It just isn't called 'swatches' but 'palettes/palette editor'.

Great video! Please make a series showing people how to switch from Photoshop to Gimp. Also, you can use Inkscape as a replacement for Illustrator.

Great vid for helping me refine some stuff. Adobe lost me in 2024…I have basic/mid image editor needs but have used Photoshop for 20 years. First time I opened a PSD file in GIMP I was blown away and like, yo I’m out…and killed my CC sub within a month. long live open source communities. 😂🖤

Thank you for this! I'll have to try some of these tips out. I grew up using not Photoshop, but PaintShop Pro and now that I'm using Linux, I'll have to make due with GIMP so this helps. Hope all is well!

Come on guys!
He lost his job and he has stage 4 cancer!!!!
Donate a few bucks and like/share/subscribe the hell outta his videos. If we value his videos at all we would honor him by making sure youTube continues sending checks to his surviving family.
If you see this message and still don't donate a few bucks, shame on you!

Please can you create more gimp tutorials for us?

[Raylightsen]

Is there a way to install photoshop on linux?

[PatrickDSimpson]

Do these things still apply to GIMP 3.0?

I love the idea of moving over to GIMP, but the usage of that plugin made me cringe :(
