Design ideas for Krita perspective tool
03 february 2013
Classified in : Software & Hardware, Other
Here is another article to propose ideas on how to improve perspective tool.
As usual, only mockup and ideas here. No codes.
I made it because I felt driven by the sincere desire to propose a cool design.
Solving problems on user side and designing an ultimate feature was a fun brainstorm for me.

Konqui the friendly dragon , by Stefan Spatz , has been KDE's mascot for over ten years now. Being the mascot of one of the major desktop environment for Linux is a hard task, and after rapid search for image, you can see above Konqui have fans and has been around for a while.

Classified in : Other
Exept this small intro , this article will be written exeptionnaly in french.
The season of Workshop and Conference continue for me but this time in my dear city Toulouse ( France ) !
In a nutshell : I'll do 1h of talk about Krita 2.5 to show why Krita rocks , and a workshop about the future Mypaint 1.1.0 . Why Mypaint ? because Mypaint have -for the moment- a larger audience in my opinion :)
I'm specially happy also to meet there : David Tschumperlé ( G'Mic ) , Henri Hebeisen ( Blender artist from Tube project ) , François Grassard ( Blender Vfx artist ) and my friend Olivier Saraja ( one of the organisator of the event , Blender User Group in Toulouse and Blender tutorial books author ) .
Oh, last details the workshop and the talk are free and the event is growing year after year : Ubuntu party , KDE Academy , Blender workshop, Music workshop ... The Open Source family around gather :-)

As you probably know I switched since 3 month mostly all my digital painting workflow to the open source Krita. The new Krita 2.4 will be out really soon now ( by the end of month ). So, in a near future, everyone will be able to install it with the regular package manager of his/her Linux distribution. Very exiting time to know it because Krita 2.4 is in my opinion ready for production work. But to reach this quality, the Krita team worked really hard. So, I wanted to blog a bit about an old Krita challenge and my relation with the project. Back on a bit of history ....
