  1. an answer to 3 ( because it happened too me too. Click off new filesize! )
  2. So, if you want to buy this Nik Suite because you don't have it..it all works as fine in Affinity as did the same, 'older' version. Don't worry about perspective, it is just a new name for DXO viewpoint.
  3. More to : Don't waste your $$$ But this is not all . You might have been thinking what about the perspective tool. Good news. I f you have one of their Studios from the last 5 years, it is just viewpoint. on the left it is called perspective 'efex' on the right it is the same viewpoint you have known for years. I'm not done yet. so I did the same file all with Nik, well DXO and the other one with my favourite denoiser and Viewpoint. you know the left one done with Dfine didn't look right. Sorry about the file size, if it is too big I'll upload just a snip
  4. They were nagging again with the new version. I was warned because I had "upgraded" to V 2.5 before and felt seriously conned. There was nothing new, they had various screens about new adjustment, as it turned out that was all about some crippled Studio they sold with it. The rest were just 10 presets coloured in different shades of purple and sepia. jejeje. They had me once so this time I was VERY careful. Now look at my screenshot. Click here to see what it says on their site!! 25 new filters... but all you get is some previews for each filters like this or this ( at least they have translated the settings, but not the filter names now) Still looking for the 25 new filters, I find at last what they really are! You just need to rename some presets «filter»
  5. thank you. I didn't feel any urge to upgrade and I am still mostly running Sierra apart from one up that absolutely insists on Mojave. And yes I love little snitch , find it more important than ever. They can put their Big Brother or Gran Sur where the sun don't shine IMHO.
  6. No se escribirlo en alemán. Simplemente clique en las guias. In English.. click on the guides. look here
  7. Thank you @Alfred .For all who would like to know, the correct link for Designer is https://store.serif.com/es/update/macos/designer/1/. As a result my Designer definitely launches faster again. BTW I also have the beta and that comes as fast as the 1.8.4.
  8. Sounds like a good idea to strip it. We did that all the time with Intel files when we had PPC didn't we. Only I am not sure if lipo works on dylibs, because that is where the bloat sits
  9. Please, is there a link to the older version? I was sortof not paying too much attention and Designer updated itself.. The new file is huge and definitely not an improvement on my computer. I really can't afford new hardware...
  10. Thank you very much you have a good idea there , sure the graphic in the oval can be used as long as you use none of their fonts and lettering. Still, somewhere has to be a modern Rangie. the back of the card is already foreseen, it is just a list of things like , has to be squeezed in 2 languages. dépannage electrique 24/7 mise au point de moteurs diesel réparations elecetroniques, deblocage. ingénieur avec20 ans d'expérience dans la marque
  11. OK.. they are boring and they say nothing about the company from far.. Please be a bit more specific in your critique
  12. not sure about the black scarf under the beard but it is very nice. I like the Evoque on your site
  13. you speak straight from the depth of my heart. I came to Affinity because I was a long term Macromedia client and fan. Designer, a´part from a few quirks, replaces freehand which I used for 20 years first as Aldus than Macromedia. We all know the use for Affinity photo but Adobe swallowed Dreamweaver and I am not thinking of going there. The new one isn't half as good and I really can't afford the subscription. I downloaded Designer because i was hoping, like you, that there would be an HTML export. Oh yes, I would go for that immediately. But as it stands, I need a good counsel what to use instead.
  14. thank you for telling me.. I recently received some emails from Luminar advertising very similar things. As a long term photographer and small time designer I was appalled by these 'features'. Most photo websites are these days flooded with impossible skies, impossible skin etc. Not to speak of a macho idea of woman's bodies. I still have CS5 which doesn't need upgrading or subscription. The only nuisance is it doesn't work so nicely with newer plugins, but still does Silverefex and exposure. Have to say that between Affinity, Exposure which has involved into a proper editing tool and Fast Raw viewer to do the sorting I hardly use PS now. I did once try to subscribe. it was 10$ and they did not inform the local taxes. But boy was I p..d off when they near on instantly wanted to download a huge upgrade. Well in CR 4 GB of internet is about 20 USD on top of the subscription and you couldn't opt to have only parts of it. So I unsubscribed very fast and then had 2 months struggle to get the money back. Never, Ever again. and they can put their sky replacement together with Luminar back to some intoxicated dream, I can live without it.
  15. Saludos desde Centroamerica , aquí es exactamente igual. I have lived long enough on both sides to know this. Yes our pay is lower but we have to pay double for anything imported and still make a living. I am also old enough to know that we can't influence this in any manner. But I feel for any person who gets upset by 'well it is only 500 dollars' because we have to work a month after basic expenses for that. Hence, yes, I do support the smaller business. May they live and thrive and write code for real world photographers.
  16. Thank you for asking this. Here I am on the other side of the world and was struggling like an idiot. 😁
  17. Another novice here, I have oscillated all my life between technical design and fixer for just about everything. I am also a photo addict .. As an industrial engineer and Land Rover workshop owner I have to do a lot of my own design. Since 1991 I have used Freehand and still boot 10.6.8 from an external disk if I need to draw something, although I am afraid I can't do that any more once this Mac gives up the ghost. I miss a lot of stuff in Affinity, like the info panel, the simplify tool etc but I love the paths and lots more. Who knows, maybe in the end I'll get the best of both worlds.
  18. Hi Mr Harris, ( I love your avatar ) I am having a strange issue wit a pdf export for my business cards, the original drawing was done in FH. To avoid the rebooting from an external HD I have recently bought affinity but I'm really struggling with imports and exports. Curves that have no stroke have a fine hairline in AD. It is only *just visble* but it fattens up in export. When I zoom in it disappears. The annoying thing is that it is back in print. Text along a curve some gets rasterized or isn't lined up properly, it is more like groups of letters hanging to parallel horizontal lines rather than a radial align. any ideas welcome
  19. great Idea, yes. I love lightroom but they have shot beside the target in the latest updates. All I needed more was a better SIMPLE html export like in version 3 and a bit more masking for touch ups. So mine is still version 5
  20. Yes, I am glad you asked. I have been looking everywhere, I used it a lot for my car drawings to make the window rubbers.
