Out of curiosity, does anyone have a good tutorial on making a realistic eye? Like a dragon/animal eye?

Tutorials I have found to do a dragon eye seem to be old and I can't follow them because steps they're being told to do can't seem to figure it out in gimp to try and follow along...

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!!

   
I'm trying to make the cut lines on this stone sample a bit more prominent. I tried levels, brightness-Contrast, Erode, and Cartoon and all don't work.

Any ideas?

I develop realtime virtual fish. I use GIMP to add transparency, etc. Here is a problem I never can do well. Look at the low res image of the tail. The end of the tail is semi-transparent. You will notice the tip it is green but really that is the background showing through. I want to remove the green without hurting the ribs of the tail which are slightly darker. 
If I use eraser with less opacity it works but the ribs are lightened and it is just lighter green. I also tried fizzy select but that takes all of it away. I want to remove the green so fish tail is semi-transparent. Is there a way with GIMP to do this?

Hi, was hoping someone could help me? I am trying to get a smooth "3D effect on text" in gimp. I am following a tutorial, and it has me create a paint brush by copying a selection which I did.... Once I created my path using a text (font) to trace and then stroke path so that way the paint brush I created is used.

However, instead of it being smooth and pretty like the tutorial... I am seeing weird marks, which I uploaded the screenshot so you can see it too.

Could it be due to my brush settings not being quite right or is it something to do with my laptop graphics?

Hey there  

is there a way to multi select layers - even all - that gonna get the same edit, for example in milliseconds ? Help will be appreciated

Is there a script to import more than one path into Gimp

I was wondering if there is a way to make it so that when I open a new canvas in gimp, that the center horizontal guide and vertical guide lines are already there automatically without having to do it manually? I tried looking in the preferences settings, but not sure if I was looking in the right area or not.

Thanks.

My Magic Wand select tool was acting normally and then suddenly it stopped selecting (none of the settings have changed as far as I can tell). I selected part of an area with the rectangle select and that worked properly, but when I tried to select the rest the Magic Wand did nothing (it's set to "add to selection")--no selection. Then I tried it on a different area that has various parts seen through tree branches hat I need to select and it selected the entire area in a rectangle (as if it were the rectangle select). Any idea what's going on? Obviously there must be some kind of wrong setting but I can't find it.

Thanks in advance!

Can someone please help me fix this? I have tried to drag up the divider line between the layers and brushes dock windows to see more of my layers. But it won't work, I'm not sure how I even changed it to make it look like it is now. But if anyone could help me fix it before I lose my mind, that would be great.  : Where you see the red square, that's where I tried to drag up from to make my layers panel longer (to view more layers than just 1-2)..
