Windows : making Linux better by comparison!
Yeah, I remember XP and Seven as solid OSes where everything just worked.
Now it's a mix of crap, hey this app is in night mode, this one isn't! Want to change a parameter? Ha ha you can't! You want to share a folder? Good luck!
And it's heuristics/analysis just because Windows is inherently insecure drags any pc down to a crawl...
And publicity??!
Aurgh
Why cs3 when krita would have more features and be free? Familiarity?
Because I'm used to it I guess, and I haven't found a single app that handles pixels and transparency well.
Like zoom in like crazy, update 1 pixel, save, transparency is still there.
Haven't looked for a bunch of years though, maybe it's time to try again :-)
Krita's always done transparency just fine for me. It's pretty good these days. There's also a built in option to set your keyboard shortcuts to the same ones that Photoshop uses.
Well then I'll have to re-check it out :-)

Yeah, I try never to underestimate the value of sheer familiarity. New software is like breaking in a new pair of leather shoes, sometimes you have to bleed a little before your feet adapt and you adjust it to fit.
Or a whole lot if you go the Blender route...
I guess it's like smoking.
You know it's bad for you, and it costs a lot, but it's a hassle to drop, so you just keep smoking anyway.
