Why -_- (Ranting) Art program troubles..
    10 years ago
            Why can't I find a decent art program with the tools and brushes and awesome stuff that photoshop has but with the simplicity and user friendly interface like SAI... Whyyyyyyyyyyyy.........
Working with krita right now and I was doing great until my entire canvas rotated now IDK how to put it back without clicking rotate over and over and over again x.x and unlike SAI there is no button that just resets the canvas to its original form...
There are a lot of things I love about SAI but its just not as versatile as photoshop is but I am so retarded I hate photoshop because everything is so damn complicated for me. But I need the ability to improve the quality of my art and I guess the only way to do that is to have endless amounts of brush options but every program I have tried either I have no idea how it works because there is way too much to it or it has little to nothing and I can't do much with it. Also I will never use photoshop because you have to pay for it monthly now or some stupid shit >.< not to mention my computer can't handle it for whatever reason and it lags so horribly for me its impossible to draw anything x.x krita lags too but its not horrible at least I can sketch and draw things at a normal pace its only when I start to use a special brush does it start to lag....
The thing is I even did some serious research into the laptop I got making sure to get something with a large hard drive and ram and stuff to make sure everything would run smoothly but I guess I just wasted my money again... I should have just waited to get the cintiq companion...
*sigh*
So I need something as smooth as SAI but like the dynamics of photoshop x.x and I don't want to work with SAI anymore its too simple for me now and its impossible for me to make any kind of nice background or detailed imagery.. I just feel extremely limited.. even the brushes you can install into it are just just a lie all they are just texture to make your brushes look fancy and that does nothing for me >.< and I refuse to pay for photoshop...
Not saying I wont pay for an art program because if it has everything I am looking for I will gladly pay for it... preferably something less than 150$ though I am not made of money also still trying to save up money to move out.
 
Just UGH RANT!
I just want something that works for me ;.;
I feel like a broken record I have been trying to find something that works for me for years now but now I am at the point my business depends on it.. Saying this because I have A LOT of background work that needs to be done as well as these YCHs that are going to be lineless so I was hoping to bring out a lot more detail with a decent art program...
Suggestions? I should probably just watch a bunch of tutorials? eh? *headdesk*

Krita is ok its just taking some time getting use to for sure. The navigation on it is broken like I was saying I wasn't able to rotate the canvas unless I manually typed it in or I click rotate over and over again. The simpler solution here is to just save it close it and reopen it which is a process and I don't like having to do stuff like that it interrupts my flow.
