Adobe is going to spy on your projects. This is insane.
For general graphics: use GIMP For vector graphics: use Inkscape For drawing and illustration: use Krita For print and web publishing and design: use Penpot For PDF authoring: use LibreOffice For PDF reading and form filling: use Okular
All are free, open source and cross-platform. None use AI.
Reblog for everyone
friends don't let friends use GIMP. use photopea
We prefer MedibangPaintPro. It is PSD compatible and has a free version.
Artfight! Attack me!
I will defend!

hey artists just in case you feel despair at the rise of ai art please remember that the talking points of pro-ai people are as genuinely “ai art bad? but what if there was a PUCK girl who had Steampunk Tube Arm Prosthetic No Hand Syndrome that couldn’t draw because of no hands and you poured a biiiig vat of pencils in front of her really big and made her look at it sadddd style and she can’t just Pick Up Pencil and draw because No Hand ? what if that happened? then ai art… goood😃😄?”
the most ironic thing about pro ai people being like “BUT IMAGINE IF THERE WAS A DISABLED PERSON WHO COULDNT DRAW?! AI ART WOULD BE SUCH A USEFUL TOOL TO DISABLED PEOPLE WHO ARE PHYSICALLY UNABLE TO DRAW!” is that by virtue of saying that they have outed themselves as knowing jack shit about the online art world because a huge majority of artists have carpal tunnel or some other pain condition in their hands like tremors that makes drawing Painful. like ohhh wow yeah ….it would be such a huge innovation if there was …. a tool that would make drawing easier….it’s not like every art program on earth comes with ….. oh i don’t know… a stabilizer that would completely alleviate this problem..??? yeah it would be really nice if that would happen. but yeah it’s such a miracle of technology that we disabled people FINALLY have a method of creating art! by creating something completely artificial and inauthentic !!! it’s SUCH a gift from god THANK you random person on the internet! do you want all the disabled people in the world to come to your house and throw a party? do you want a cake? do y
Not to mention that it's also Incredibly ignorant that disabled people can't draw.
Because there are people without limbs who can do amazing art with only their mouths as a guiding tool, such as Mariam Paré and Grant Sharman.
Pro AI art people just refuse to do the work
Polish artist Mariusz Kędziersk, who is also self-taught and paints without hands.
Simon Ushakov painted this without hands in 1658
Natalie paints with her lips.
Artist Martin Sodoms from Capetown.
Chinese artist Guofu paints with mouth and feet.
All this in 5 minutes of googling. There are so many artists without hands creating art, all sorts of art, that AI "saving" disabled people is a horrible take.
And seriously speaking, does art need to be super awesome to be art? No. Draw a line. Great, you made art! Draw many lines with different colors. You made more art!
A new tool lets artists add invisible changes to the pixels in their art before they upload it online so that if it’s scraped into an AI training set, it can cause the resulting model to break in chaotic and unpredictable ways.
The tool, called Nightshade, is intended as a way to fight back against AI companies that use artists’ work to train their models without the creator’s permission. Using it to “poison” this training data could damage future iterations of image-generating AI models, such as DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, by rendering some of their outputs useless—dogs become cats, cars become cows, and so forth. MIT Technology Review got an exclusive preview of the research, which has been submitted for peer review at computer security conference Usenix.
AI companies such as OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Stability AI are facing a slew of lawsuits from artists who claim that their copyrighted material and personal information was scraped without consent or compensation. Ben Zhao, a professor at the University of Chicago, who led the team that created Nightshade, says the hope is that it will help tip the power balance back from AI companies towards artists, by creating a powerful deterrent against disrespecting artists’ copyright and intellectual property. Meta, Google, Stability AI, and OpenAI did not respond to MIT Technology Review’s request for comment on how they might respond.
Zhao’s team also developed Glaze, a tool that allows artists to “mask” their own personal style to prevent it from being scraped by AI companies. It works in a similar way to Nightshade: by changing the pixels of images in subtle ways that are invisible to the human eye but manipulate machine-learning models to interpret the image as something different from what it actually shows.

FEIGHT: APOCALYPSE
Okay, okay so like… I’ve been designing and working on a game for like the past 13 years and it’s gone through several iterations (believe me it needed it.)
With Itch.io I finally have a place where I can just post the updates whenever I reach a considerable milestone (kind of like vns but this time it’s an rpg.)
Basically if you like classic style rpgs with wait ATB systems and linear storytelling you’ll enjoy the heck out of it.
The downlow of the story is that Andrew and his friends are suddenly stumbling into some dangerous magic in their vaguely-modern world and the consequences of failure to grasp these powers they’ve found are enormous.
Please check it out if it sounds good to you, I’m still learning how to manage the whole update thing but it seems promising and if you’re the kind to be more excited about a content update and seeing a project as it grows now is the best time to hop aboard!
(This wizardy guy here is telling you to try out my game.)
