@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.

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'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?

AdamF

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
@fuznutz04 said CentOS7 or Ubuntu,
I vote Ubuntu

Thanks!

Awesome! Either one works for me. Whatever one is preferred for this install.
