So. The program I have been using for years - Gimp - is no longer working out for me.
After losing a drawing i had spent hours on before gimp froze up and closed out on me, I decided i'd check for an update.
There was an update. So i installed it.
Yeah. Bad move. The update is rather stupid, and could be debated to be a downgrade. Gimp has appeared to have removed the most commonly used and simplistic brushes (those would be the old fashion round dots that come in different sizes) and the pressure opacity setting is still there, but doesn't seem to do a single thing.
This displeases me greatly, because the drawing i was working on, was original. and i liked it.
AND. i'm working on Ironman and Benedict Cumberbatch. (or at least, i was.) My question to you guys is - are there any free softwares you can think of that i can use to continue drawing that preferably has a opacity setting when using a bamboo tablet?
I'm broke and I can't afford photoshop. And I really want to continue drawing.
:/

Any help would be appreciated.
