You can adjust the spacing (between brushes), the brush size, number of objects that will appear each time you click the mouse, and more. On the next screen, click the Export button, and the Export Image as a Brush Pipe dialog window appears. I collect filters, plug-ins, scripts, styles, brushes, patterns, gradients, and shapes from everywhere. Special Effects features and the Filters are impossible categories to judge because I use them all.
I use both GIMP and Photoshop filters all the time.

But for the rest, especially the Perspectives and the Warps, I prefer Photoshop.Įditing also includes features such as Spot Healing (removes or paints over spots) the Clone Stamp (paints over sections copied from another section) the Pattern Stamp (paints patterns) the History brush (restores a previous section back to its original state) the Eraser tools and the Blur tools (that blur, smudge, or sharpen an area). GIMP’s Cage Transform is interesting, and the Shear effect is nice. The effect on the text layers isn’t much better than those in Word or PowerPoint styles, and you can view the results only after the filter has been applied. GIMP’s styles for the text are the same as the filters for objects, which are applied to the selected layer. The second essential on my list is Styles, especially for the text layers. Photoshop Styles are unmatched by those of any other program. Winner: Photoshop Styles JD Sartain / IDG
In other words, they work well considering they’re free. They do the job almost as well as Photoshop’s Lasso tools and would not be a deal-breaker for GIMP. The Free Selection tool and the Intelligent Scissors are “good enough” if you can’t afford Photoshop. I do not like GIMP’s Fuzzy Select tool, and the By Color tool seems to be redundant. Photoshop’s Lasso tools are absolutely the best, especially the Magnetic Lasso, which seems to know instinctively what you want selected. Compare GIMP vs Photoshop Selection Tools.
