Vectorpea: Online Tool for Vector Graphics
- Rastonbury 3y agoSlightly off but Photopea is great even better than gimp imo when it come to psd compatibility. Inkscape is good for vector or ai files, will try this next time
- traviswt 3y agoPhotopea has completely replaced my Photoshop usage, and now that I have an Illustrator equivalent, that monthly creative cloud subscription isn't looking too appealing...
- hopefully60 3y agoI agree Photopea is great but they're asking $8 a month which is only $2 less than Photoshop
- mapasj 3y agoThe comparison is not quite equal. Because if I don’t pay for photopea, I can still use it for free with ads. So in effect it’s like a pay-what-you-want pricing model.
- RobinL 3y agoDon't you also have to subscribe to Photoshop for a year?
- traviswt 3y agoWith a large 4K monitor, I just tolerate the ads.
- adfm 3y agoPhotopea and Vectorpea live in the intersection between Photoshop/Illustrator and apps like Canva, which, let’s just accept it, is the vast majority of users out there. Pull back for a moment and consider where this is going. If we’re talking three-legged stools, good raster and vector editors held up by the browser means they’ve got a seat at the table. Adobe is literally spending billions trying to achieve the same thing. This stuff should be baked into the browser at this point, but we’ll eventually get there. With decent raster and vector tools you can build diagrams, whiteboards, pagination, presentation, animation, app mock-ups, even throwaway social media banners—-and it’s all scriptable and multi-player when it’s in a browser. And it’s easier to tack on “AI” when your workflow (another example) is in a browser to begin with.
- omneity 3y agoWhen a solo dev successfully competes with a multi-billion 30+ year entrenched corp. Gives us all solo makers a hope and proof it can be done.
- flir 3y agoPhotoshop wasn't really "there" until 5, maybe 6. It's easier to clone than it is to create.
- cmcconomy 3y agoI love photopea, will be looking into this one!
- amanzi 3y agoPretty good for a beta! I uploaded an SVG of my company logo, played around with the colours of the shapes, and exported as a large PNG file - it worked perfectly.
- codetrotter 3y agoI’m honestly just surprised that no one snagged the domain vectorpea.com given how popular photopea.com has been. For a moment I thought maybe he registered it a long time ago but nope. Registered On 2023-01-27 https://who.is/whois/vectorpea.com https://who.is/whois/vectorpea.com
- your_challenger 3y agoAnd it expires on 2024-01-27 Talk about not committing untill proven.
- codetrotter 3y agoThat part is pretty normal though. Or do you guys pay your domains multiple years at a time? Personally I renew mine yearly for the most part.
- rahimnathwani 3y agoAdd a year each year (so it's an annual action item) but keep the expiry date at least 3 years away.
- ale42 3y agoSometimes it's a question of accounting, depending on how the budgets are managed, it might be difficult to justify spending on something for 3 years later, if there's no real requirement to do so.
- zimpenfish 3y agoFor some (family email, my email, super-vanity domain), I register them as far in advance as I can whenever they get close (ie <1y) to expiring. Just avoids hassles.
- mekster 3y agoSimply auto renewed?
- osener 3y agoThis is great news. I am a long time Inkscape user, but every time I open it for quick edits on macOS I am overwhelmed by performance issues and crashes. I resort to using Figma nowadays but it doesn’t work exactly like a vector graphics editor. I hope the author pulls of the same black magic they did with Photopea.
- zimpenfish 3y agoIf you're quick-editing SVG, Boxy SVG is pretty quick and easy for that.
- emsixteen 3y agoAmazing! I recommend Photopea to people all the time who need some PS-like functionality the odd time.
- theanonymousone 3y agoPhotopea is extraordinarily good, and I'm very happy if this one is going to approach the same quality
- dekken_ 3y agoplease don't hijack regular browser shortcuts, or prevent them from working. alt-d to select url bar is not working
- jansan 3y agoAlt-d on my browser adds a Bookmark. I see no problem in hijacking that shortcut.
- dekken_ 3y agoAre you everyone? That is only one example of a shortcut which doesn't work.
- hutzlibu 3y agoDon't you think a full web app is something different than a webpage?
- dekken_ 3y agoI think there should be options, that are opt-in
- 57FkMytWjyFu 3y agoThere is ... another. F6
- dekken_ 3y agothat's good, but it's also more movement than alt-d which I can do one handed without moving. That was just one example anyway, other shortcuts are blocked too
- votiv 3y agoI've been looking for a good browser based vector editor and https://editor.graphite.rs/ https://editor.graphite.rs/ looks promising aswell.
- eigenvalue 3y agoHow is this guy like 1000x more productive than a typical developer? Seriously, some business school should do a case study on him to figure out what he’s doing differently!
- notwhereyouare 3y agoi imagine it's 1) he reports to himself 2) doesn't have 5 levels of product owners/project managers "figuring out what's best for the end user" that, often doesn't align with the end user's needs and 3) reports to himself
- eigenvalue 3y agoYeah I’m sure that’s part of it. I think he’s also just ridiculously good at programming and knows how to squeeze every ounce of performance out of a WASM app. One thing he has going for him is that the app design was basically done already for him by hundreds of people over 20+ years to design the original Photoshop interface (he’s basically totally stealing all of that from some old version of Photoshop, maybe version 6 from 2000 or so). It’s still an absolutely insane amount of work though.
- llamaInSouth 3y agoyou are over estimating the amount of software work it takes when you do it right.
- llamaInSouth 3y agoit doesnt take a lot to be 1000x more productive in the software world and there are many ways to get there.
- eigenvalue 3y ago10x, sure. 100x, I know there are plenty of people like that across the whole world. I don’t think there are many 1000x devs, and it certainly does take a lot to get there!
- bluelightning2k 3y agoI'm genuinely excited for this. Photopea is great. It's like 80% of the original's functionality. I don't need to edit vectors illustrations often but when I do I've found it painful. Will definitely turn to this when that happens. (Haven't used product but have blind confidence based on Photopea).
