    In addition to what Arsheesh has just said, you can open a GIMP file in Krita, but Krita converts the text to ordinary layers, so you can't edit the labels once they've been opened and saved in Krita. There is another way to move a file backwards and forwards between GIMP and Krita, and that is by saving it as a photoshop file - which both of the free apps can open. However, I've never tried it that way, so I don't know if you still get the text conversion problem or not.

    The text conversion is really only a minor point in the bigger scheme of things.

    Both these free apps have ink tools, and Krita in particular has the most excellent brush editor I've ever seen in a free app. It can't handle files as large as GIMP can, but drawing in Krita is a lot smoother and more professional looking than in GIMP (speaking on the experience of just 3 days since I first started using Krita)
