Hello,
Could someone recommend me an extension that makes it possible to create nice logos and inscriptions.
I've attached a preview image of what I mean.
Thank you very much for your time.
Have a good evening.
Piotrek

I cannot really recommend anything for Gimp. (or anything else)

   

Text and Simple shapes are best done manually. Not difficult to do in Gimp but a logo is really best made with a vector application such as Inkscape. A vector (.svg) file can be scaled up or down without loss of quality, essential for a logo. There are plenty of tutorials around, try https://logosbynick.com/tag/gimp/ and https://logosbynick.com/tag/inkscape/

   

I will attach the only script I recall that has logo in the name, logo-toolbox-210.scm and a utility to add scroll bars to the script-fu dialog. the script goes in your Gimp user profile and the script-fu.exe in the Gimp system plugins ( shown on the inset ) It is one stupidly long script without the scroll bars. Only for text and nothing that you can not do from scratch when you get to know Gimp.

Thank you very much. You reminded me of Script-fu. Good night.
