Elementary OS Linux - Better than an Ubuntu OSX theme

It might be just what I was looking for - a cleaner Linux but still being modern and up to date.

Customising GIMP to look like Photoshop

I've played with GIMP before but only this week I have really taken the time to use it instead of Photoshop.


I'm really enjoying the fact you can customise the interface, it has made using Gimp easier.

Blogpost of what I've done so far

It's also given me a new view on those tutorials where you make Ubuntu look like OSX. In the past I never saw the point but if you like OSX and find Open Source cool. Changing the interface makes you feel at home. Having things where you would expect to find them is a time saver.

GIMP vs Photoshop, Van vs Lorry

The debate - is Gimp as good as Photoshop. The way I look at it Gimp is a van where Photoshop is a lorry.

In most cases a van will do the job if you're moving house or making a delivery for your business it does the job. No better or worst than a lorry. But in a situation where you need a lorry for example a 20 pallet delivery of  stock to a large supermarket a van is simply not suitable.

A van could do it but it wasn't design to make those kind of deliveries.

Gimp can do much of what Photoshop can do but not everything much like a van and a lorry.

For the foreseeable future I just need a van especially when that van is free to use.
