GIMP

GIMP doesn't even have a convenient way to outline text

It does, but I haven't done it in forever so I forget what it is.

ayrt

From what I remember, Photoshop, you can just Stroke text, and you can still edit it freely once you do.

In GIMP, the only way I know how is to select path, create a new layer, copy from path, then Grow (since it's a copy of the text shape, now you have to make it bigger to make it an "outline"), then Fill it with black or whatever, then move the layer behind the text layer so it is effectively an outline. Once you do this, you can't edit the existing text or morph it at all. It's a pain in the ass, but if there is an easier way, I'd love to learn. I feel like every time I google it, and this is the top suggestion though.

Huh, I swear there was a way there you just selected the text using the choose colour tool, add an outline and then fill in the outline. Like I said, I haven't done that since I used to make icons years ago, plus GIMP has updated since then.

I wish I could find the tutorials I used to use...

OP said convenient.

GIMP has a method, but convenient it ain't.
