Hi everyone, what should you do if after downloading the plug-in and placing the files in the right folder you get this error when starting Gimp?

When developing photos I commonly add text using GIMP.  It looks to me like this results in adding a new layer that is just large enough to hold the text (i.e., quite small in relation to the image/canvas/layer size for the photo).  Then the Move Tool can be used (easily) to reposition the text (? layer).  I'd like to be able to the same thing with a small image (e.g., like on ICON).  However, I have NOT had much luck figuring out how to do it.  If this is possible HOW?

Also, in the case of text you can change the size by adjusting the size of the font.  While that would NOT apply in the case of an image it is still desired to be able to adjust the size of such an image, while previewing it in relation to the main image (photo), without affecting anything else.  If that's possible I could use some help figuring out how.

Hi,
I have a red picture. It has an alpha channel too. All I want is to change the color to Yellow keeping the alpha values in respect. I mean, I just want to transform this red to yellow. Is there any method for doing it? Any tutorial, suggestion or video is welcome.

It's been years since I was on here, but I noticed something that has me wondering: Gimp, like Photoshop, has Modes for each of its Paint tools (Darken, Lighten, Etc.), yet when I try to access these modes, the box stays locked. Not sure how to unlock it? Attachment included.

Thanks for your time and efforts.

Hi,

Can someone explain to me how to make icons bigger?

The steps I have done:
Access Edit --➤ Preferences --➤ Icon Theme --➤ Custom Icon size and shifted slider to “Huge”. The icons changed but still are not as I expected.


Regards,

After editing images and closing all, system memory usage still remain as before and even layers list and undo history remain.
I have to close Gimp to free all memory.
How to avoid it without restart Gimp?

Hey, I'm working on a new design with 5 logos stacked on top of each other evenly but the alignment tool won't work, what am I doing wrong?

Hello,

I am producing a batch of images with Python/Gimp Scriptfu

But it seems on every round of the loop I am accumulating unnecessary Memory. Eventually this leads to a Memory Error. 

It looks like pdb.gimp_image_delete(image) is not working. It should return True on success but that isn't the case.

Anyone experienced similar issues or knows whats wrong? I am using Gimp 2.1 on MacOS

Or is there another way to simply clear the memory cache of GIMP after each round of the loop or whenever needed?

Thanks a lot!w_

If not GIMP, would be delighted to know about other options as well. Thanks.
