Haha, I was in the middle of posting NO to GIMP as you were posting.
That's too complex for our needs. This needs to be wife friendly as well.I don't find GIMP to be that bad.
It's quite powerful, which is where the problem for most people comes in. I imagine @fuznutz04 would like it after getting acquainted with the interface.

I've used it previously, and even have it installed on one of my Windows boxes right now. It's not bad, and very comparable to Photoshop. I could get used to it probably, I just never committed to it for any length of time to give it chance. One thing that it doesn't do well is photo storage/organization/viewing. For example, with Aperture, I can tag photos by person, location, events, etc. Bringing this back to Nextcloud, does Nextcloud offer this sort of photo organization/sorting/viewing?

@fuznutz04 The easiest way to get Netcloud setup is to setup their appliance VM. Go to https://nextcloud.com/install/#instructions-server and select "Appliances" tab. You'll see a link to www.techandme.se who is their official Nextcloud appliance provider. Tech And Me has 2 versions of Nextcloud. One on a 20GB drive and another on a 500GB drive. Either choice you can expand the space allocated.

Great to know. I'll check that out to see if I like the functionality and then go from there. Thanks.

Gimp has gotten better over the years, yeah. Still not perfect, but OK. For drawing, there is Krita, a must-try. And Darktable is a great RAW editor.

I'm not up to speed on GIMP, but my very non-technical neighbor can rock it.

It's a design tool so us tech types don't tend to grok it, but graphics people do. It's a very good tool.

And the price point is always in my budget.

Exactly.

Hey @fuznutz04
Did you happen to find any good ones?
-
No, not yet. I was going to focus on getting Nextcloud up and running first.
-
If I have time this weekend, I'll try to write up a guide. Any particular Distro you prefer?

@dafyre
