PhotoGIMP VS resynthesizer

I used to use PhotoShop heavily and still have a lot of the UI muscle-memorized. I switched to GIMP + https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP and found it mostly fits my needs for basic image editing.

There's also photoGimp:

But it's interesting if we can get FOSS Gui toolkits that allow for different approaches to menu/toolbar/discovery where the user can easily adjust and select how things should work - like readline Emacs/vi selection on steroids for Gui.

There is this project that might help you:

I doubt it, code needs to be maintained , even if you will get stuck on old libraries you could miss out on features and improvement, of course if the changes are small and it's more like a patchset (something like photogimp) , that might be more feasible.

I don't like gimp at all, but you can still try PhotoGimp.

did you try PhotoGIMP?

I have an old wacom tablet, so its painting masks mostly. back in the early days, I did all the things that photoshop 6 could do. Along with a brilliant plugin called resynthesiser[1] which I am horrified to find out is 23 years old.

I've never really used the scripting functions apart from applying global effects.

Nowadays I use it until I need illustrator hard enough to move to the mac downstairs. but most of my photo editing is now done in lightroom.

GIMP has such a plugin. The package in the openSUSE repos is called gimp-plugin-resynthesizer You can read more about it here https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer

This is great for removing unwanted objects from any image: https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer

Install Resynthesizer: You can download the Resynthesizer plugin from the official website (https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer). Follow the installation instructions for your operating system.

A library implementing the "resynthesizer" algorithm for texture transfer among images.

You’re talking about resynthesizer from GitHub https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer and you have the latest ? I know it was last updated prior to the Ventura release, but you might try redownloading it again.

The sort of feature has been around for a long time. "Resynthisizer" is the name of one of the algorithms, and it's been around in Gimp for over a decade -- https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer -- no Tensor required.

if that's what's holding you back from just using linux by itself, then try out the resynthesizer plugin for gimp.
