95% of the images I run through Elements get one or two same operations and then get saved as both a PSD and a jpeg.
Now, this is why I have been investigating GIMP, the version I have is 2.10.34
When I save from Elements, much of my Metadata gets stripped and I have to meticulously replace it, especially iptc data and keyword tags.
When I export the same jpegs from GIMP, all of my Metadata remains intact save for GIMP stripping away the "Subject" in "Properties" and stripping away the embedded comment.
If I could get GIMP to perform my operations in quick batch form like I am able to with Elements, I would switch to using GIMP.
Here is my usual procedure:
I load a folder full of photos in Elements 7.
I may drag the Background layer of some photos on top of others while looking at all of them in tiles.
Then, I have a one-click batch process that duplicates the stamped-visible layer, adds High Pass Sharpen with Soft Light Mode and a layer mask, and then adds a Stamp-Visible layer on top of that.
Then, I have a one-click process that saves all open photos at once as PSD and saves them in a specified folder that does not change until I change it, even if the program is closed and reopened.
Then, I have another one-click process that saves them all as jpeg and saves them in a different specified folder.
Is it possible to duplicate this process in GIMP; and, if so, how ?
I have studied the manual and made several attempts at this and always give up in frustration.
I've been trying to set up the ofn-text-along-path plugin/extension for the past few days, and it's just not showing up in GIMP. I assume I've done something horribly wrong, but I have no idea what. In the various forum posts I've looked at about it, and the docs that came in the .zip, it should show up in the path right click menu -> Tools -> Text Along Path..., but the Tools dropdown just isn't there. I'm assuming I've installed it wrong, or there's a dependency I'm missing, or something, but I'm just not sure what it is. It could be that I've done something else horribly wrong.
There's also always the possibility that its NixOS's fault, but I highly doubt it. The attached screenshot should contain all relevant information, but if there's something missing, I can provide it.
Due to the inordinate amount of spamming (we manually purge over 100 spammers per day, and these are the ones that percolate though the automatic defenses), we have to change our policies a bit.
Posts by new users ("Registered" users) are moderated as long as the spamming weather is bad.
"Registered" users become "Regular" users once their first post is accepted (with the privileges you are used to)
All current "Registered" users have been promoted "Regulars", so there should be no impact (tell us otherwise)
Now hopefully taking some popcorn and watching the moderation queue...
As you see from layers, I copied pasted an area from the bottom layer to a top layer to cover the tube.Than I added a mask next to the "patch" to
remove the excess of the patch. As I click on the bottom layer, the green line goes away just by clicking. As I go back to the mask and click on it,
the green lines reappear and shift command a doesn't work. The selection prevents me from painting in the mask.
Strange thing as you see I already started painting but I can't replicate it. Thanks
I like the idea of this. If it works it will waste a lot of CPU time trying to get out of the tar pit

Hello, has anyone had any success using the BIMP plugin on the newer versions of Mac OS's? It looks like it was made for 10.22, and I simply cannot get it to install on OS 15.2.
Or optionally, is anyone aware of a different plugin to use for batch processing for someone with no knowledge of how to do scripting?
