GIMP

GIMP is a free program for such photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. Essentially it's the closest thing to Photoshop you can get for free.
- GIMP is much more complex, more like Photoshop. Photoscape is very easy to use, even for absolute beginners. Guest • Jun 2018 • 8 agrees and 1 disagrees
- GIMP is a more head-on Photoshop clone while Photoscape is more like a tool bundle for miscellaneous photo needs. Guest • Jul 2017 • 12 agrees and 1 disagrees
- Too much! Bad interface, annoying, not at all an alternative to Photoscape! Photoscape is perfect and a reason to use Microsoft Windows. Guest • Dec 2016 • 8 agrees and 10 disagrees

If you like Photoscape's multiple-photo layouts, your next step should be FotoFusion.

Can't get Photoscape to open in Ubuntu 18.04 lts anymore :-(

I don't know what happened. I was using it every day and loved what I could do with my images in it. So easy and intuitive to use! After the last Ubuntu update the program will no longer load at all. Even though it shows up as installed on my system.
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling from Software Center, uninstalling/reinstalling from website, uninstalling/reinstalling from Terminal, with/without Wine. Nothing works!

Anyone else having similar issues? Can the creations of Photoscape help please! I use this program to edit images to upload to my POD merchandise site so it is kind of important to me!

Thanks!
