This looks very cool :smiley:
(b.t.w. I really like your example image)

Since I don’t do graphical editing often, I usually use gimp for everything, including cropping.

I used gimp too until today I don’t have time for gimp to lag and take half minute to launch
I often reply fast on discord and chat won’t wait me to slowly open gimp & crop some project image.

aw thank you @tkn you can find it in my collection

Shotwell is pretty basic. Cropping is easy and straightforward with it.

I’ll have to give XCropper a try.

I use Mirage for cropping and changing image size it is also pretty small and fast. It doesn’t do much else but for most thing I need it is all I need. If I need more I use Krita. I used to use Pinta but they ruined the program so it is almost unusable to me.

If we’re short on time OR short on processor capabilities (and you are a terrible artist like me) something like this may be very appealing.

Thank you for writing this article. I hope you receive a lot of discussion about your work!
