  Pictures won't show in Gimp
Posted by: Tumbleweed - 11-18-2023, 05:39 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (7)

I have Gimp 2.8.16 and when I open pictures the files show and sub-files show but when I click the files, there are no pictures there. If I select "show all files" then they show but when I try to load, Gimp doesn't recognize the file name whether GIF, JPeg, etc. Also if I draw something in Gimp there are no extensions to select from to save. Also noticed when I went to "About Gimp" the link to Gimps web page doesn't work. Not sure what went wrong but I do know the last thing I did that could have changed things was when I did a disc clean up. I'm running Window 10 - 64 bit. I've read a lot of old complaints about similar issues but nothing worked or the person helping talked over my head. Not all that savvy with computer operations. Any help or ideas I would love. Thanks

  Assigning ICC Color Profiles
Posted by: labam003 - 11-17-2023, 05:35 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi,

I've looked at previous threads on this subject but as they are a couple years old, I was wondering if there is more current knowledge on this subject.

I am using GIMP 2.10.22 on OS 11.7.6 (Big Sur). I have tried multiple times following many different YouTube videos as well as GIMP's own documentation to assign an ICC color profile. I always end up with the window saying ICC Profiles Validation Failed. Color Profile is not for RGB color space. This is after I have added profiles in Preferences and saved them.

I would appreciate any suggestions how to resolve. I have started using CYAN but I can't help but feel there must be way to get it to work within GIMP. Thanks so much!

Hi Everyone.. My name is Paul.  lm a Newbie here I repair pinballs as a hobby and decided to recreate new artwork for 1 of them that was badly worn out The friend helping me who  has been ill for sometime now he is no longer available so the project has now halted at 90% Is there anyone here with some spare time willing to get it over the finishing line ?  the Only crucial part is the alignment of the artwork to the plastic inserts..

  Slice into layers?
Posted by: paulfh - 11-16-2023, 11:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I'm familiar with how to slice an image into separate images via Slice Using Guides, but what I would like to be able to do is slice into Layers within the source image. 

I know I can do it by manual selection but when creating a lot of slices it can become too time consuming and it can be tricky to get the slice sizes right. Does anyone know if there is a plugin or script available that can automate this process? What I would ideally like is an automatic way to:

Select number of equally sized slices
Select whether they are done horizontally or vertically
Have them cut and pasted into new Layers

GIMP 2.10.34 - Windows 10

Thanks

  HTML coding
Posted by: denzjos - 11-12-2023, 04:36 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (4)

Because my old website maker (copy and paste, WYSIWYG) generate HTMLcode that now show errors on the screen after uploading to a server (errors: some images and some characters not shown), I had to change to another webside maker. I wanted freeware and after installing and trying some freeware I found Bluegriffon. I think that's a good one. Now it's quite pleasant to code again (still learning). And I can now correct my old websites.
Link : http://www.bluegriffon.org/#screenshots
I also use TED Notepad (freeware) to make corrections to the code because it's sometimes easier and I am now learning something new : HTML coding. Somtimes frustrating, but if I get some result it feels good. Smile

  Reduce image to simple color palette?
Posted by: Fleas - 11-11-2023, 03:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on how to "flatten" an image's colors to give it less depth and feel more like an 8-bit sprite.  Here is an example of what I'm working with:

[Image: $Enemy-Knight.png]  original    [Image: $Enemy-Knight1.png] edited

I have a few hundred of these types of images so I'd like to know if there is a way to easily reduce all the different shades of green to only one green.  Same with brown, etc.  Using tools like posterize, threshold, and so on tend to pick up the wrong parts of the image and I would be doing tons of edits either way.

Brick start_gimp-2.10.bat - Installation
Posted by: Krikor - 11-10-2023, 04:00 PM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (8)

Hi,

I downloaded the Samj Portable 2.10.32 version and am carefully analyzing how I will proceed to change the version.

The first thing that is different that I found is the existence of the start_gimp-2.10.bat file, which does not exist in my version in use.

So my question is:

Why this .bat file if there is nothing like that in the current version?
When will it be executed?
Should I keep it or can I delete it?

Here the contents of the file:

set GMIC_PATH=%CD%\GMIC_Filters
set GIMP2_DIRECTORY=%CD%\Preferences
start /B %CD%\bin\gimp-2.10.exe

Last but not least!

Is there a way for me to test this new version (2.10.32) without having to first uninstall the current version (2.10.28) and so that there is no conflict between them (shared use of files, etc.)?

Grateful!
