But today the focus is how to make your photos stand out in the quickest possible way. In a later post I will explain about the adjustment layers and other wonderful tools. There are many different way to do the same tasks in both Photoshop and in The Gimp. In the rest of the article I will use those shortcuts above, but if you do not change them they will be completely different. If you look at the photo above you can see where you do these settings and below you can read what short keys I have set in there. As I work both in Photoshop and in The Gimp I have tried to make The Gimp behave as close to Photoshop as possible. One other advantage that The Gimp has over Photoshop is that it is very easy to make your own short keys for all the tasks you normally do.
(Let me know if you get stuck and I will try to help you.)
#Gimpshop tips tricks for mac#
There are some special packaging made for Mac by third parties, so if you have these problems you can go with for example Gimpshop. If you are on a Mac like I am, the Gimp runs under the X11.window system and that makes it a bit harder to install than a normal Mac program. It is therefore very easy to shift from Swedish to English like i just did for the snapshots in this article, that is much more difficult in Photoshop. There are versions for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux and translations exists for many languages… like my native Swedish and Gimp automatically adjust to the language preferences on your computer and shows up with the right language. With the proper training you can achieve the same quality with a program that costs…… nothing more than your effort. It also has the same kind of tools and is organized in the same way. The Gimp is a free (as in no cost) open source tool very similar to Photoshop and you can do almost anything you can with Photoshop in in a similar way.
This article tries to recreate the workflow I showed in an earlier article about working with Photoshop but with this alternative instead. However there is a completely legal and really good quality alternative available for you. Many people don’t have the funds necessary for buying Photoshop and end up using a cracked (and possibly infected) illegal copy or some really bad editing solutions.
