I found Photoshop CS6 from 10 years ago much more usable than Gimp. I was trying to do very basic things on Gimp and it was very hard or impossible. Like non destructive text editing or setup print size with ruler and markers. I think Gimp is fine to make some rough and quick edits but that's it.
- nopenopenopeno 5y agoI run Photoshop CC 2018 on Ubuntu 20.04 with WINE and it runs like a dream. Anything earlier than 2018 won’t support high resolution displays and anything later is not currently supported by WINE, but Photoshop CC 2018 is very good.
- fold3 5y agoHey that's good to hear, I'm going to try it out later. I never succeeded to run photoshop on WINE until now. Did you had to do anything special?
- nopenopenopeno 5y agoI am using Play On Linux on Ubuntu 20.04. You can run CS6 without doing anything special, but if you want hires GUI then you need CC 2018. I set it up a while ago and don’t recall how much I had to do, but I pulled the latest Photoshop script from the Play On Linux website and modified it to point to my install.exe. I think the main thing was using a Windows XP base. Then once you open Photoshop you will have to disable in the preferences to disable automatic plugin updates or you will periodically get an annoying error message. Also set to hires in preferences. Other than those two things, it’s flawless. I run it almost daily. This stuff is all noted in the comments sections on the Play On Linux and WINE websites Photoshop versions pages, but admittedly there should be a guide somewhere. One last thing: I do not own the copy I am using because you can’t buy CC 2018 anywhere. Running the crack is done with the ‘Run an executable’ option in Play On Linux.
