Hi.
Long time ago i created an image on GIMP but it was over 10 years ago (exact date between 2010-11), ever since that time i havent used GIMP once, forgotten all about how to make images and now i want to recreate that original effect.
https://ibb.co/chrGw64d
(tried to insert an image, but it doesnt work for some reason)
Top image is my recreation, bottom is the original effect that im looking for.
As you can see on the original, there is some sort of spiritual/smokey kind of filter that i want to recreate. You can clearly see that violet color isnt flat and there are different shades of it throughout the whole text.
I have no idea how i achieved that in the first place. I was able to recreate the neon effect as it was pretty simple and there was a tutorial for it, but that particular effect im looking for - i have trouble to even accurately describe it.
Another thing is that i have no idea how on the original image the X lines reach B and U. I was looking for the exact font and the best possible match that i could find was Espectro Swash, but i dont know how to recreate that effect.
Its just my educated guess, but i think that the effect im looking for could be some sort of font filter, if something like that exist/existed.

| GIMP 3.0.8 Installation |

I have just installed GIMP 3.0.8 (64-bit) on three PCs, all of them with Windows 10 (64-bit), v. 22H2, OS Build 19045.6466.
GIMP does not launch on any of the three after double-clicking on its icon. It briefly displays a small blue spinning circle and nothing else happens...
Is there a trick to launching GIMP on PCs that run Windows 10?
Thanks.

| Display not keeping up with image changes in plug-in |

I am new to writing plug-ins - I've only done two. They are python on Gimp 3.0.6, running on Windows 11.
This one opens an image from a file and then assigns a display as follows:
Code:
infile = Gio.File.new_for_path(os.path.join(img_folder, img_name))
img = Gimp.file_load(Gimp.RunMode.INTERACTIVE, infile)
disp = Gimp.Display.new(img)
This all works, it shows up on the display.
Then, the display is resized, new values are calculated:
Code:
img.scale(new_width, new_height)
It is then written out to a JPEG, rescaled again down to thumbnail size, and written out again.
Then the image is cleaned up and the display deleted, which removes the image as well.
Code:
img.clean_all()
disp.delete()
Then the whole process starts again with a new file.
It all basically works fine, the JPEGs turn up OK. But, as the images are progressively shrunk, the display doesn't keep up. Basically, it's hard to describe or show, but just pieces of the shrunken images show up. I could if necessary try to video it.
But, if I run the commands one by one in the python console, no problem at all, it all looks fine. I assume this is because it is done slowly. The display is probably on a diffierent thread and isn't getting a look in when running at speed.
It isn't a show stopper, the files are fine, but it looks messy.
Is there a way round this, flushing all the display commands, for example,? Cannot find anything in Gimp.Display.

I am unable to access my Outlook PST file because it is password-protected. I have tried opening it on various Windows versions, but the issue persists. Is there any safe and reliable technique to unlock a PST file on all Windows versions without risking data loss? Please suggest a practical solution.
