“The art and design communities, in particular, are feeling the pinch from Adobe Suite going towards a rental model, and now the artist and perennial thorn in the side of anyone who seeks to own a colour, [Stuart Semple] is doing something about it. He’s launching a competing suite called provocatively, Abode, which will follow an affordable paid-for licence model.”
The Abode project seems overly optimistic in terms of scope, cost and timing to me but then I’ve never been involved in software development. Still, alternatives to the big names are always nice.
The only alternatives I’m ever told about is Gimp (which sucks, I don’t care what anyone says) or Krita, which while a good program, is not the same. I also think you have to pay for Krita on Windows, but its free on Linux for some reason.
What else is out there?
