And as time goes on and the capability set of Photoshop increases more quickly than the Gimp's poor record of catching up ... well...
Tell us about how great it is to have only a choice between "bicubic sharper" and "bicubic smoother" for filters when resampling an image either down for the web or up for printing!
Are you talking about Photoshop CC? There are quit a few more choices. And there is PerfectResize, which has completely different algorithms.
keep in mind floyd has never used photoshop (and readily admits it).
According to nospam.
according to *you*.
I've never owned a copy myself. I have never had it on a computer at home. I have never "used" it in the sense that it was my normal editor.
Only you have ever said that I've never used it at all, in any way.not just me. you said it yourself again, just now.
And that is totally irrelevant anyway!quite the opposite. it's very relevant.
if you haven't used photoshop then you don't know what it can and cannot do.
you might think you do, maybe from what you've read or heard from others, but each time you say something about it (or about mac or windows for that matter), it's clear you don't know.
If you don't know the difference between what happens when invoking a High Pass Sharpen as opposed to UnSharp Mask or Richardson-Lucy Deconvolutional Sharpen or Wavelet Sharpen, and instead think that Smart Sharpen is easy and does what you need... maybe you just don't know what actually is relevant!none of that is relevant.
photoshop can do whatever a user wants and so can other apps.
the difference is the user experience in doing whatever it is. photoshop will do it with less hassle and in less time (and i've measured this by running both, something you have not done).
