I'm trying to add a custom pattern however I cant locate GIMP on my drive  through the gimp application( File-->Export-->OS©-->users>
(name)-->application Data(appdata roaming  is where gimp is stored when I search for gimp) once I click on this option the preview box on the right is empty.

I cant save the custom pattern without finding Gimp ( I can search my computer and locate the file, however when I search through the gimp app while exporting to save in gimp I can not find it).

Can anyone help?

Im using windows 11
Latest version of Gimp 2.0

Can I make icc files in gimp that the 'Apply abstract profile' plugin understand (found in 'Colours/Apply abstract profile' after placed in the gimp plugin folder) 
   

This FG/BG

It looks nice with my color, don't you think?

More seriously ➤ We always speak about this "Tool", some call it FG/BG swatch, I call it FG/BG icon, others call it FG/BG button and we always try to "explain" what's this icon, its position on the UI, when it's a very-beginner we do need to write the full "ForeGround/BackGround (FG/BG)" what so ever... and yet it's not in the icon's tool list on GF...



(Jeeez I love this direct screenshot to imgur from ksnip, and just Ctrl+V while writing > again thank you @Krikor ),
anyway, let's get back on track ➤ it would be nice if we can have this icon  
No need to try to explain to "click on the rectangle underneath the white square" (or vice-versa) or the double arrow or the tiny B&W square to reset it.... and let's face, it would be a nice add-on to the tool's icon list of GF    

PS: there is even the icon posterize, that nobody use it and not the FG/BG...  

Hi everyone,

I exported an image from a rendering software which had an option to 'apply alpha channel'. By mistake I enabled this option and later realized all my images had no sky background.

While viewing the images in photos (Windows) I noticed the background would show for a split second before Photos applying the alpha...

I opened the image in Gimp and when I unticked alpha channel, Voilà, the background was recovered.

Problem is... I can't export it for some reason... when I save as PNG the background is back to transparent, and when I save as JPG it is all white... but that is not what I am seeing in my GIMP window...

When I run Layer > Transparency > Remove Alpha Channel. I do get the white background preview.

It's always a challenge to optimise skin colour. I find this video a good learning curve.

I think you can find in gimp the same things as seen on this dashboard : Colours/Color Grading, Colours/Curves, Colours/Levels, layers, layer modes and I'm missing Vectorscape (I think). 
Nice to have such a dashboard. Just a dream...

I'm using GIMP 2.10.31 on MacOS Monterey.  I installed the resynthesizes plugin but get an error "'plug-in-resynthesizer' not found" when trying to heal an area.  I found a help article that directs users to create a new dynamic link:

It turns out that the plugin uses a newer dynamic library than what I have on Catalina. In detail, both resynthesizer and resynthesizer_gui are linked against the dynamic library with the name 

The problem is that I don't have /usr/local/lib on my Mac    I have /usr/lib but when running the last command I get an error "libintl.9.dylib: Operation not permitted"

Hi, i have a lot hours work done in GIMP about a boardgame i am doing last 3 weeks. Today my cat start walk in my PC.

My problem: I was using 2 fonts in my cards(the boardgame is with cards), "Arial Bold"(a few) and "Times New Roman Bold"(most), suddenly all related to times new roman was "out of sync" and when i select any these go standard to changing to "DejaVu Serif Bold", i mean if i wanted change any number i have change the font because that go automatically to DejaVu Serif Bold, i calculate how long can it take about 8-10 hours changing if i did manually, a hell since it can happen again in another 5 seconds with my cat or even alone, i try search about this problem, but nothing, please help!!!!

Is there a way to create a partial halftone effect on an image( almost like a halftone gradient ) or color?

I have seen several designs where there is halftone effect in certain areas of an image however not the entire image and was curious if there is a way to create this design effect with GIMP?

Thank You.

Hi,

I have a large image (roughly 10,000 pixels wide) that is intended to be a template. The idea is that you create your design over the top of it then turn off the template layer and export as JPG or PNG.

On this large layer, I want to create multiple copies of a much smaller image (say 100 x 100 pixels).

Is there any way to do this in GIMP? I have a feeling the Clone tool might be the way to go but don't seem to be able to get any useful result despite trying a few tutorials.

(I've used GIMP for a while but don't regard myself as much more than a newbie so any advice would be welcome.)

Kind wishes - Patrick

This bug existed in a previous version of Gimp 2.10, and even after I updated to the latest version of Gimp 2.10 (version 2.10.32) the bug remained.

Here's an explanation of the bug:
When I load a 16bit grayscale raw image file (extension is .data) it correctly keeps the 16bit mode in the loaded file. However, when I then use export to again save the edited 16bit grayscale picture, again as a raw image, the output file is incorrectly converted to 8bit grayscale. The result is that I lose the 16bitness of the raw data output. It keeps the 16bitness if I save to a TIF file or PNG file, but not if I save back to a raw (file extension .data) image. Please fix this bug.
