Gimp has always been rather snubbed in the world of photo editing, mainly dominated by professional software such as Photoshop. I realize that for a professional choice is almost obligatory, but I want to write this article because I believe in using gimp for the amateur evolved to the point of having virtually created a website dedicated to him alone.
We assume that the main reason for not using free software is easy to find photoshop cracked from torrent or P2P. I'm not here to criticize people installing pirated programs, but to reflect on a fundamental error of this mechanism.
We think we're a fledgling photographer who has never drawn a picture, learn to use software that becomes difficult with Photoshop as Gimp. Now we discover a natural talent, the ability to make good photographs. If we work with a pirated program might not take too much to expose, publicize our work, make a small photo exhibit or sell any stock. The controls are just around the corner when they start to turn the money. All these problems would not exist with Gimp. The program is free, is free to use and the results (in photo editing) are almost the same.
One of the criticisms most often leveled against Gimp is the lack of support for 16-bit images, a problem with the upcoming version 2.8 release in 2011 should be resolved. Another criticism often heard is that the mismanagement of the GUI ... I think for a photo editing program the GUI is as important as the cover in a book, only presentation. That photoshop abbia una migliore ottimizzazione harware non ci sono dubbi, ma le lamentele riguardo la miglior gestione dei filti, per l'utilizzo domestico sono irrilevanti.
Personalmente ho scelto gimp diversi anni fà per fare qualche lavoro nell'azienda dove lavoro, un negozio in cui l'acquisto di una licenza era assolutamente superfluo. Mi sono trovato bene ed ho deciso di utilizzarlo per il fotoritocco di tutti i giorni. L'acquisto di una fotocamera reflex ha aumentato le mie necessità, ma non mi ha mai fatto sentire l'esigenza di passare a photoshop.
Per concludere, riflettete sulle vostre necessità e valutate l'utilizzo di Gimp per il fotoritocco. Una volta superato lo scoglio iniziale, sono sicuro che i risultati saranno ottimi e senza il fantasma della pirateria.
