From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I agree completely with this. At my office, I’ve started installing Krita in place of photoshop for people who need to edit images. It has its own learning curve, but it’s been a wonderful alternative.
For basic stuff it is a great alternative with a better UI than GIMP, although when you start needing more advanced stuff anything else is better than Krita for photo manipulation.
I would completely agree with this. I think Krita is a pretty good middle-ground for people who don't need to do very intricate compositing.
