  Glitch art : weird or not?
Posted by: denzjos - 09-27-2024, 05:44 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (1)

Glitch art takes temporary pixelations, interruptions and glitches and turns them into visually arresting pieces, questioning the forms and traditions of art using digital techniques. 

Some information:

  LUT's - lookup tables : load, or make, and use
Posted by: denzjos - 09-25-2024, 05:52 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

It is easy to correct or change the colours from a set of pictures with LUT's.
What are LUT's or 'lookup tables', some information: https://nofilmschool.com/what-is-a-LUT
Free LUT's, one of the many free sites to download LUT's  : https://freshluts.com (register and download or post)
Can one make LUT's? Yes, with G'Mic-Qt. 
- load a picture and make a layer copy
- make a new layer and correct or change the colors in the layer copy
- use G'Mic-Qt / Colors / CLUT from After - Before Layers
- set the 'Output Mode': Save CLUT as cube or pngFile (use cube)
- fill in 'Output Folder' (make a folder where you put all your 'cube' files) 
- fill in 'Output Name'  (a name that clarified what the LUT does - better for later use)
- click on the 'OK' button
The LUT can now be used for other pictures.
- load a picture
- G'Mic-Qt / Colors / Apply External CLUT
- choose the 'HaldCLUT Filename (folder where you saved the cube file)
- done
Example (I used a LUT I made before from another corrected photo)
   
The Lut I used (cube file compressed):

Thumbs Down Newbie needs help !
Posted by: Clueless - 09-23-2024, 10:05 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I know this should be simple however I am new to gimp and struggling a bit.

Quiet simply I want to print 2 images of 106mm square on one piece of a4 .instead of printing one image per page and wasting loads of paper.

I can print one easily but when I try to move 1 image to the left to make space for the other one along side it  it splits from it's canvas.and part of it disappears

Do I need to make the canvas a4 size ?  

Thanks in advance John aka Clueless

  Tablet not usable
Posted by: Carl Dershem - 09-23-2024, 09:49 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (6)

Using a Wacom 16 tablet under Windows 10(64 bit), in Gimp 2.10.38

I just installed the program today, and while it looks very useful, the tablet interface is... less than stellar.


I was able to go into the Input Devices menu and watched a couple of YouTube videos, but it just does not work.  It sees he tablet, and i can use it to point, but not to paint.

For one thing, the Dynamics are OFF, and I have no idea how to turn them on, r if that is necessary, or what they do.

And if I want to use a brush on the screen, well, I can do that with the mouse, but the pen only points, and if I try to paint, I get a kind of rectangle, with squares at its corners, instead of, well, drawing/painting.

I admit to being new with the program, but shouldn't it paint, instead of (it looks like) designating an area?
Is... a puzzlement.


Thanks for any tips that might make this work better.

  Utube Works Best On Chrome - Is That A Surprise?
Posted by: Tas_mania - 09-22-2024, 10:23 AM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (8)

We recently lost broadband for a week due to a huge storm that lasted for days. It brought down big trees that took out power lines. Power lines that supply the broadband infrastructure and people's homes. We didn't lose power but had to adapt to no internet for awhile.

When we got internet back I noticed something I had been ignoring for some time. Utube was stopping at higher resolutions and I was having to drop lower, often to 360p or 240p. I was mostly using Firefox from an AppImage. I noticed the ads seem to work just fine. Speedtest seemed normal for us.
 
   

I checked Utube with Chrome and so far no slow-downs. It's definitely working better than Firefox with Utube. I'm currently watching Tassie Boys Prospecting because Levi often does 'sniping' in remote and dangerous areas.






Due to Tasmania's bizarre history gold found here by small time prospectors belongs to the King of England. For some reason he never shows-up to collect it.

  Script to detect and select simple shapes?
Posted by: tomatoSauce23 - 09-22-2024, 04:56 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (8)

I'd like a plugin to be able to detect and then select simple shapes in a layer or image. So there is a green square in lots of pictures I'm processing and I have to mark them every time they occur, so I do this manually using the Rectangle tool. The squares are always of a similar size and colour. Is there a plugin that could detect squares within a certain size-range and colour-range and then select them? If not, how difficult would it be to write a script like that, given that I have some programming experience but not in Python?

Why isn't my avatar displaying anywhere? I just get a placeholder image instead on my avatar. The jpg I used was 90x90 pixels and 21kb in size.

  Couldn't make an account with gimp-chat.net
Posted by: tomatoSauce23 - 09-22-2024, 04:48 AM - Forum: Gimp-Forum.net - Replies (3)

I think probably this site and gimp-chat.net are associated. So I tried to make an account on there yesterday. Ostensibly I succeeded and posted something on there. But when I went back there today there I just got a "this account isn't verified" message without any options to do anything about it. The message also said to "contact an admin" but there was no such option anywhere on the site. The post I'd made had been inexplicably removed also. Without further knowledge I assume that website is just broken and not fit for use. Does anyone have any further ideas about how to fix that though?
