Why no love for Gimp?Why isn't there a Gimp tutorials as an alternative to Photoshop?

Fair question.

I suppose it would be because Gimp is not as popular as Photoshop, both in terms of overall usage, but more importantly the use within graphic design and web design shops. Many studios request designs in .psd format.

Furthermore, the UI of Gimp has, historically, been something to be desired. It is getting better, granted, but because of that reputation I think designers are reluctant to give it an honest shot. This leads to another point - there are far more tutorials and courses covering Photoshop which keeps it's popularity up. One other point is that many design studios use other Adobe Suite products (importing and exporting some of the same files) as well.

Similar to your question, though, it would be nice to see a Vector design course based in Inkscape since SVG is becoming a mature method for graphics on the web. The output of .svg code is leaner than that of Adobe Illustrator and the user has far more control over that output code from within the Inkscape UI.

Because they don't show no love.

I'm a Gimp user, but I would never ask for, or supply a Gimp design doc professionally. Photoshop is such a strong standard and I don't see that changing much until something new comes along and rocks the boat in a really big way.

Gimp has a horrendous learning curve (the last time I checked), and the UI leaves a lot to be desired. Photoshop is more intuitive, and it's the industry standard. Creative Cloud payment options are pretty affordable these days so there's no real reason not to have it as part of your toolbox unless you're super poor.

I use both , yes ps is more popular but gimp is a great place to start and yea we all know that it's free.
