Last time i've reported a bug was in bugzilla as far as i remember...
Here's a little tiny bug in the development version 2.99.15 and i'm not sure if it should be reported and if so where an how...
Selecting layers step by step holding the shift-key starting from the uppermost layer downwards selects only two layers.
As soon as you select a third layer the first selected layer will be deselected.
Doing the same from the lowest layer upwards works correctly as expected.

Hello Everyone,

While using the G'MIC Mandelbrot / Julia filter I now receive this message when clicking OK "Error in ./fx_mandelbrot/ *** Command 'input': File '0', format does not take any input options (options '0' specified)." could someone please help me resolve the issue.

Thanks

Greetings,
I have a photo in jpeg format that has a resolution of 300dpi. When I open it in Gimp 2.10 and check the resolution by going to the Image menu and selecting either "Print Size" or "Scale Image" the resolution is listed as 72dpi.

Does Gimp downgrade the resolution when an image is opened?

Hi, Long time lurker, new time member (or something)

im currently working on some sprite animations of symbols and wondering if there was a way to speed it up. 

im taking an image 250 x 250 and reducing the opacity by 5% each time and re saving the image.

So images look like:

1 - 100%
2 - 95%
3 - 90% ....etc

*to*


22 - 0%

*to*

39 - 95%
40 - 100% ...etc

im using around 40-50 frames of animation for a smooth transition from solid image to 100% opacity to solid image again.

I use a sprite sheet generator to take all the image and load them up into a 7x7 sprite sheet, but I could do with speeding up the animating process.

I guess my question is, instead of having to manually change to opacity for every image and save it and change it again and save it, 50 times over for each image, is there a way to create a template or use the filters/tools to help me do this to speed up the process? its currently taking around 10-15 minutes per image. And I have hundreds of images to animate. 

I hope all this made sense. 

Appreciate any help or pointers with this.

thanks

I think that this request is equal parts how to move to GIMP from Photoshop, general editing principles, and project-specific needs - I'm hoping that you guys can help me figure out where I need to start. The bottom line is that I want to composite myself into a Norman Rockwell painting for my Christmas card, specifically "Man With Christmas Goose." The isolation of my own face and resizing/reshaping was easy enough - I tried to include what I have so far as an attachment. However, the texture and color are off with the painting. I'm guessing that I want to do some kind of a blur, but I was not expecting to be presented with so many different types of blur or variables for each of them. The skin tone in the painting also seems to be warmer than the photo and have a higher contrast, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to match that.

I've actually found a few tips for specifically getting a "Norman Rockwell" look with photos, but the directions seem to be Photoshop-specific. So now I'm trying to figure out whether I start by trying to adjust the texture first and how, trying to match the color, or trying to match the contrast, if those things can even be done separately. Should I be looking for tutorials on getting photos to look like paintings, on matching color and contrast in compositing, or something else entirely? Thanks, guys - I really appreciate any direction you can give me.

Hello,

I'm French I don't speak very well english. Please forgive me.

I have drawn somehting and then I scanned it.


I applied a threshold in The Gimp Software in order to get a black and white image.


That is not so bad. But I don't know how tu say it in English, lines are not perfect, there is a "sketched style". This style has a charm, but I would like ti have a result a litle more professional, more smooth, like the following exemple (I haven't done this one) :

If gimp or G'Mic-Qt are to difficult to use, one can always try the easy to handle software FotoSketscher to convert photo's into paintings: https://fotosketcher.com
   

I have a plugin to upload the current image as a PNG to imgur, copy the resulting link to the clipboard, and open a page in your browser with it for feedback (this last action can be commented out)

Set up is a bit contrived (you have to obtain an Imgur client id, install a python library, and the script is Linux only) so I won't document it if there are no takers.

So, anyone interested?

I would like to get the area of a photo "LIGHTER".
So I use "TOOLS", then "PAINTING TOOLS" and then "LIGHTEN/ DARKEN".

Since I have to zoom-in the photo to correctly "LIGHTEN" more precisely the given area ,
I have noticed that the circular "BRUSH TOOL" stays the same size.
Does anybody know how I can "REDUCE" this "BRUSH TOOL" size ?
And if there is another tool to LIGHTEN an image?

Thank you in advance.
