Just started.  I have an image on wich I paint. When I erase it goes through the whole image and becomes white. How should I erase something and keep my background intact ? I'm sure its easy, but I can't find.

Hello, is this possible to make different qualities in one photo ? I want to make car higher quality and background lower. Photo : https://prnt.sc/n1EjjqPj95UH

Hello. New to forum. I would like to know how to resize an image within a photo file without reducing the whole photo. I have not been able to get an answer to this question with multiple searches. Most posts have to do with reducing/compressing the entire photo file, and this is not what I want to do. I want to shrink an image to make a more usable wallpaper. I am new to photo editing so am very ignorant of terms so please be gentle. Thanks

I still use MS Word 10.  I have a desktop PC.  Why can't I do more than download gimp?  No problem there, but I can't open it or use it.  Thanks.

Just made a small update. In the simple cases (two lines, plus maybe a "guide", you can have everything in a single path, instead of  making a path for each).

New version available at the usual place.

Hi,

What I want to do is open a pic, go to Colors - Levels - Auto Input Levels, and then save file. Only I want to do it on a folder of scanned photos. Is there a way to do that automatically?

Thanks!

Hi all,

Currently, I often use the GEGL drop shadow tool to create outlines on some images. This is a process that I repeat often, so I would like to be able to automate it via script. However, the only scripting option that I can find is for the legacy drop shadow. The legacy version doesn't have as many options, and some of them are interpreted differently, so I'm not able to replicate the same effect with the legacy version. Does anyone know if there's a script out there that can replicate the GEGL drop shadow tool's effects? I've done some googling, but I haven't been able to find anything so far.

Hi all,

I decided to finally start learning Python-Fu (I'm already familiar with Python), and I've been getting a feel for it by converting some of my older Script-Fu scripts to Python-Fu. It's going well so far, and I've been able to convert a few. Currently, I'm working on one of my scripts to create a preview image template. Formerly, I had a series of scripts that I could use to create different sized previews. I've streamlined it to one single new Python-Fu script with two sliders that allow me to customize how big I want the preview image canvas. The sliders determine the number of rows and columns, and then the image and guides are generated from that. The script works well, but there are two issues:

1. When I don't have any images open, and I run this script, the dialog for it appears, and there are two dropdowns at the top for "Input Image" and "Input Drawable", above the sliders for number of rows and columns. Both say "(Empty)," and that's the only option. If I already have another image open, these dropdowns don't appear. Is this normal? Is there any way to prevent these from appearing? 
   
2. The image, when created, is black. The older script-Fu scripts (that essentially had the same coding) would create a white image. I'm sure there are many ways to make the image white, but how do I default to that?
   

I'll use ms snip to clip excerpts from email to paste into GIMP 2.10. For some reason, the pasted image is only in B?W (gray tone) not color. Why?

Every time I try to 'crop to content' the 'Adjust Color Levels Menu' pops up in front of my project. Consequently, I am unable to crop my image. How do I turn off the 'Adjust Color Levels Menu'?
