Updates regarding Halloween fan art and my PC

Posted by ScepterDPinoy - October 7th, 2018


Hey guys here are some problems and issues I've encountered on my PC recently ago:

Unfortunately my finished Halloween 4k pic cannot be opened in Photo viewer while the original file for that pic has several layers deleted in Gimp. I'm developing an art block since I do not have any cash left to pay for another program such as Photoshop (I do have $78.27 dollors left on my paypal) while Gimp is being a dick on my files that was created in Gimp to save as a png photo.

Also I don't know if I will be doing a set of cards for Neon Mob while I do not have enough cash to purchase a new computer as I'm losing confidence while having an art block. Also I'm very stressed about doing other projects someone commissioned that consumes my time. I'm very frustrated how my pc cannot handle 3D games and pixel art games with filters added to it.

Overall I need to take a break from my pc but I'm aware that Gimp will corrupt my files if too many layers and filters were added while the games I owned such as Cross Code cannot handle filters causing slowdown resulting the HD driver to stop working (this includes Unity). I don't want to purchase another pc at this moment while under a budget.

I'll be hanging out in social media as well as this site to set aside my worries and frustration.

Updates October 9: Downloaded Aseprite for work. Dunno what the future holds... Also downloaded the free version of Photoshop CS2 from a help of a user.

Updates October 12: My 32 thumb drive along with the portable hard drive will be deleted if I attempt to plug it on a usb of my pc...

Update October 16: Planning to make a art project for an internet holiday next year using CS2... If not I'm stuck.

Hope your troubles won't last for long. It sucks that a talent is blocked by lack of money constantly...

Dunno if that will be temporarily. My pc has some severe issues.

I've had GIMP corrupt a couple of my own files before, in fact, if I hadn't uploaded one of them to the NG dump beforehand, I would've lost it forever. It's one of the main reasons I switched to PaintdotNET.

As far as I know if I add too much layers while having a huge resolution size such as 4k that will delete most of my layers the next time I open. I can't resort to buying Photoshop each month sadly... Nice tip but I'm confused with the layout PaintNET has to offer.

Adobe offers an official download of an older version of Photoshop for free. It's technically for those who already purchased the software, but it doesn't stop anyone else from downloading.

Thanks for the link but If my files got corrupted within this free version of Photoshop there's nothing I can do.

Ugh, that's annoying. Hope everything gets sorted out for you soon though

I just refresh my pc not to long ago and some of my apps are deleted in the process.
