Is it working for you?

After investigating what's going on (wrong) with Ubuntu 24.04 I've come to the conclusion it's permanent.

   

Canonical and Msoft has been working together for some years now with Msoft attending Ubuntu conferences. Nothing wrong with that except these are contradictory economic systems. Ubuntu get most of their software for free from Debian and volunteer programmers. Somehow this good will has been corporatized in a partnership that is supposed to be good for the users. I don't believe it. This is all about money.

It was just a matter of time before Ubuntu started breaking -down.

   

The problem with Msoft is they force people to jump thru endless hoops and deviations to get anything done. I don't like that.

So I'm moving on possibly to Debian. Debian 12.5 looks good and is a reputable distribution. BTW I don't thing Mint is going to be sucked-in to the Canonical vortex

I am new to Gimp,and a friend has asked me if I can change pictures of him.The pictures are of him "front on".How can I flatten his stomach using Gimp ?
Can someone tell me what tool/tools to use and where I can find a detailed tutorial please,I prefer written tutorials so that I can print them out,rather than utube tutorials.
I look forward to your replies,thank you

ExifToolGUI 6.3.0 : https://exiftool.org

ExifTool 12.79 : https://github.com/FrankBijnen/ExifToolGui

Windows 7 64 bit
16 GB memory
Gimp 2.10.36
560 MB TIF file

When working with Selecting in a 560 MB TIF file, Gimp became unresponsive.
After bouncing around with Fuzzy and Invert, I think I was using By Color when Gimp got fed up.
It did recognize a mouse click on the "x" to exit, though.

When Selecting in the 500 MB image, memory usage went to about 7.5 GB, not all Gimp.
But I didn't catch Task Manager's display when Gimp fizzled.

Is there some way I can gather info to identify the cause?

Hello yet again,

I have learned a LOT by experimenting and watching tutorials but my next problem maybe impossible to solve with an automated tool. I am trying to remove the background of the following 2 images leaving only the dials and the numbers on the outer ring and also remove the center hole.

I tried an auto background tool, change color by selection, changing chroma, but too much gets removed. Unless the experts here can help my last option is to use the free selection tool to remove the background by hand.

Thanks!

   

   

An old topic that IMHO is worth a review. Gimp Custom Fonts. These are not true fonts such as something.ttf or something.otf, they are graphics, assembled from a Gimp .xcf file using a utility script. Unlike regular fonts, as all bitmaps, they can suffer with extremes of scaling.

   

Two scripts attached, unzip for
(1) custom_font.scm This will make a stand-alone banner with transparency. Add it to your project.
(2) custom_font_on_path.py Creates the graphic text along a path in your project.
They both register in Filters -> Custom Fonts

The history,  Gimp custom fonts started here:  PhotoFont http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=14040 included for historical purposes, have a quick look and go straight to;
Custom Font script http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14045&start=0
There are some ready-made .xcf custom font files there for download.

Most of the ready-made font files were posted on the gimplearn forum which is gone. They are being gradually re-posted see:
Custom Fonts for 2024  http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=20703
Custom Fonts for 2023 http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=20295

Custom Fonts from GimpLearn 2019  http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=20396

Many of the custom fonts on GimpChat are large files and have been split into separate .7z (7-zip) archives.
A utility (there are others) for unpacking 7-zip is peazip https://peazip.github.io/ and there is a python plugin for combining the resulting partial .xcf files into one. See: The GimpChat posts.

Всем привет!

Хочу спросить: Можно ли рисовать контурный свет так, чтобы цвет персонажа не менялся, я менялся цвет самого контура? Потому что у меня получается только так как на картинке.

Hello, everyone!

I have a question: Is it possible to draw contour light so that the color of the character does not change, but the color of the contour itself changes? Because I can only do it as in the picture.

I am trying to use GIMP to do some mock-ups for jewelry. I have all of the components scaled correctly in their own projects, and set the DPI to match in all of them but when I try to open them as layers, the relative scaling is all out of whack (shown in the second screen shot). I can do it manually using grids and rulers. but I would like a way to do it automatically on import, so that all of the pieces are ready for arrangement and I can be sure that their relative scales are all correct.

Is there a way to do this, or am I stuck eye-balling it?
