Are you... - a #racialized / #BIPOC (#Black, #Indigenous, #PersonofColour) #artist, #designer, or #creative? - looking to #design a personal #website to showcase your work, thoughts, or next project? - tired of paying monthly for website builders that lock […] [Original post on mastodon.design]

Pricing-wise: Assuming you're using Stripe for payment processing... #Pretix is still cheaper on platform fees for tickets CAD$25 and under, but #HiEvents beats it out for CAD$30 and over. For CAD$35 and over, though, #Weezevent still wins out, with #TixTree and #TicketTailor closely behind.

I've used #pretix for a few events, and although I really like how feature-rich it is, the UX (both on the backend and public-facing pages) could use some serious design reworking. It was one of the few #FOSS alternatives out there to #Eventbrite and such, so […] [Original post on mastodon.design]

Small win of the day: figured out how to add a light / dark mode toggle for the #Publii CMS and static site generator! This is a feature that has been requested many times in the community forums, and a solution now exists! Just a few tweaks right inside the […] [Original post on mastodon.design]

If I'm not mistaken, one of the library/model used for the object selection in #Krita is the same as the one used for #Kdenlive's new Object Mask effect (#SAM2) […] [Original post on mastodon.design]

A screenshot of the Kdenlive video editing interface. A clip of a man outdoors is seen with a red mask overlay applied over him. Another panels shows settings for the Object Masking effect.

A recent discussion on open-source Photoshop alternatives (mastodon.design/@candidexmedia/1145…) led me down a rabbit hole of image background removal in @Krita. Turns out there's a fantastic third-party plugin which can accurately […] [Original post on mastodon.design]
