The center section is reserved for showing the image you're currently working on. The upper part for menus, toolbar and a brush selector, while the right part for layer and options palettes. The left part of the main window is reserved for the toolstrip, which consists of painting, selecting or editing tools. If you have worked with Photoshop, you'll notice that its interface is rather identical to Krita's. You can also opt for a custom document, which allows you to select a custom image size and color mode. When Krita is launched for the first time, a new document window pops up, which offers several templates to choose from, such as a Grayscale, CMYK or RGB document of various sizes. Krita can be obtained either from your distribution's repositories or by downloading and compiling the KOffice source packages. At the moment, Krita allows you to pretty much do whatever you want to with images, from photo retouching and image editing to creating original art using Krita's tools (paint, brushes, pencils, pen and ink). But this doesn't mean that it should be ignored until then, not at all. ![]() Unfortunately, even if it tries really hard, it still has a very long way to go until it will reach Photoshop's level of performance. Krita, part of KOffice, is an image manipulation software that could be considered an alternative for Photoshop. Did you know that for each piece of Windows software, there's an alternative for Linux? Well, at least for most of them.
