Gimp is so different than ps. On with the basic newbee-death-freeze.
After scaling, or any transform,Layer is non-practicable.
How to normalize the layer & move on?
Thanks

Hello,

First of all, thank you Ofnuts for all the hard work & support.
I'm trying to use the path-grid-0.1.py plugin described here : http://gimp-path-tools.sourceforge.net/d...haped-grid. But as it turns out, that guide seemed a bit outdated (at least the install info simply doesn't work for 2.10) and since I didn't see a thread about any ofn-grid thingies in all the 24 pages i figured there was none to be found. I've searched this forum for "ofn-grid" or "hex grid" but no luck there either.
I downloaded the .py file and put it at ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/path-grid-0.1.py, but I don't see python-fu as an option and cannot find the tool either... I successfully installed and used it on another PC using gimp 2.8, but I'd really like to have both that plug-in (I didn't manage to generate an hexagonal grid with the default functionalities) and 2.10 functionalities (mainly Fill Path, which I believe is not available in 2.8).
I figured maybe it was because the python wasn't a valid command, but aliasing python3 as python didn't solve the problem either...

I am very inexperienced with GIMP so it is entirely possible that i'm missing something obvious or that I'm looking for a complicated way out of a simple problem.
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance !

Hi, is there a way to do this in GIMP?

I am getting jagged edges when I add an outline to text using the following method.

1. Type text

2. Layer > Transparency > Alpha to Selection

3. Select > Grow (3 pt)

4. Layer > New (Transparency)

5. Fill Selection using Bucket Fill Tool

6. Arrange layers so that the new layer is beneath the original text layer

The problem arises in Step 5 when the selection is filled.  The filled selection has jagged edges. How do I prevent these jagged edges?

Hi guys

Just finished my first project in Gimp which is a graffiti. Would like to get some honest and critical feedback from competent artists and people who just want to give me their impression.

I'm working in Blender mainly and I think it shows in a negative way. The image looks a bit too much like several layers stacked on top of each other and not like one coherent image. Anyone knows how I could change my workflow to get my next project more uniform/coherent?

Cheers

Hi there. Im sure this basic question has been asked elsewhere but I scrolled around and couldn't find anything so.... here it is. Any help would be appreciated. 

I am following some directions Ive found online for creating a panorama. 
I have created a new image and then am in the process of opening images as layers. 
I shift select multiple images and then go to open them. 

The images in question were in the vertical position. When I attempted to open them, a popup asked me if I wanted to rotate. 
I didnt want to because, the intention for the panorama would have been the series of vertical images. However, (I cant remember why i did this) I selected yes, to rotate. The popup gave me the option to "dont ask for this again" and I selected that. 

The images were rotated to the landscape position but, it seemed to do so by just cutting out the image that would have been on the top and bottom of the vertical image. 
(Does this make sense? For instance, say the vertical image was three bands of color, red at the bottom, white in the middle, blue at the top. When I selected rotate, it turned the image horizontal but seemed to do so by cutting off the red and the blue, only leaving me with an image of white.)

Ok, fine. Just restart the project, right? But..... I selected "Dont ask this again."
So.... now, when I try to open as layers, the images immediately come up in the horizontal and cropped layout. 

My question, I guess, is twofold. Why did it crop the image, when I rotated it?
But more importantly, how can I get back to the beginning and just open these images in their uncropped unrotated position?
For clarity, I can still view the original, uncropped images in my media viewer. Its just that when I open in Gimp, they are automatically rotated and cropped.

Im new and just kinda finding my way around with this stuff so, any help would be appreciated.

Hi, All,
I've tried searching both online and in the forums for how to do this, so I'm sorry if it's been answered and I'm not clever enough to figure out how to find what I'm looking for.

Seemingly at Random, when exporting an image as JPEG, I get this:


I would like to know how to turn this off.  I attempted to remove the default comment ("Created with GIMP", in Edit->Preferences, Default Image, Comment).  I used the "Save Defaults" feature on the dialog itself (which I admit, I'm not sure if I have to then load the defaults, but that seems counterintuitive to the term default).

Occasionally, I have found the export also exports a title property that I also cannot figure out how to remove. 

Can someone please explain how I can remove these things. I'm fine with a "from here forward" sort of solution (I recognize the images I open may have this stored somewhere already), but I would prefer not having to deal with this.  It's sporadic, but frequent enough to send me down the rabbit hole and annoying enough to cause me to create a topic here.

Thanks.

Is there an easy way to make a photo of sheet music just black and white?  I've been working on pages, using Color > Curves and this one turned out with yellow.  I've tried a few suggestions on the internet, but no luck.  Seems it should be simple.

I tried attaching my photo but keep getting an error.

Thanks

Like, in a GIF with 20 frames, morphing from a dog to a cat,
both the First and Last frames might show for one entire second.  
I'd like Frames 2 thru 19 (each for 0.1 seconds) to "shake", like in an earthquake.
Can GIMP make that happen?
Thanks, people.
