I Âdo use Gimp quite often but I find it a bit heavy going sometimes.I had this exact issue the other day, so I installed Pinta. Not sure if it does everything you listed as I've only used it once but it's worth a try. It's in the Ubuntu Software Centre if you're running Ubuntu or a derivative.
It seems to be a bit OTT for me much of the time. Very often I am
preparing a photo for one of my blogs so I do not need to do much.
Very often all I do is,
crop it a bit if needed
scale the image
sharpen it up a bit
check levels
check curves
add a border
flatten the image
export it to jpg
I know that there is so much more available in Gimp but I am talking
about preparing a photo for showing on the web, not for printing. So I
am wondering if anyone could suggest a program similar to Gimp but
simpler to use, that is much less of a heavyweight.
Thanks,
Neil
