Change Gimp to emulate Photoshop

PhotoGIMP created by Diolinux

A simple Patch for GIMP 2.10+ to help all Photoshop Users.
• Tool organization to mimic the position of Adobe's Photoshop;
• Hundreds of new fonts by default;
• New Python filters installed by default, such as "heal selection";
• New Splash Screen
• New default settings to maximize space on the canvas;
• Shortcuts setted for the similars on Photoshop, following Adobe's Documentation;
• New icon and Name from custom .desktop file.
• The new default language is English (you can still change in the Settings if you want)

From: Davies Media Design

In this GIMP tutorial, I show you how to download and install PhotoGIMP. PhotoGIMP is a free patch that customizes the GIMP user interface to emulate Photoshop's, while also changing GIMP's default shortcuts to match those of Photoshop.

This patch makes it easy for longtime Photoshop users to switch to GIMP without having to relearn all the shortcuts, etc.

The patch comes with thousands of pre-installed fonts and some third-party brushes, as well as some popular Python filters like "Heal Selection" (from the Resynthesizer plugin). Veteran GIMP users may also like the cleaner look and feel of this patch.

I rarely use GIMP as it is now, but I'll be sure to check this out.

I just checked out the video. As I haven't used photoshop since around 2004 or so, I probably won't be converting it over, but....... he has a ton of great tutorials videos on GIMP and Inkscape, which is pretty awesome!

GIMP is a stand-alone pixel editing program and not associated with Adobe or Adobe products.

Sorry, I misunderstood the OP. I read it as a program that could or would connect somehow with PS.
