I'm trying to create a new palette, but keep getting this error message:


Failed to save data:

You have a writable data folder configured (/Users/debrawilcox/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/palettes), but this folder does not exist. Please create the folder or fix your configuration in the Preferences dialog's 'Folders' section.

I called AppleCare, but they said it was a GIMP issue. I tried re-installing GIMP, but am still getting the error. Does anyone know what I should do to correct this?

Thank you

Greetings.

I am an old man, not used to do much with programs such as Gimp, but I had someone asking me to create a left-right-left-right moving object, using a GIF file with special effect.
How do I do this?

Been looking on Google for nigh the whole darn day, but nowhere I found, how to make a "KITT Scanner" or, if you prefer, Anamorphic Equalizer, according to Wiki (looked this up, as it might be, I could find a tutorial under this name, alas).

I learned, it are 8 leds moving from end to end and back, looping in a "block style" light per light), and this is what was asked.
However, as I an completely nuts, I want to do something odd: I want to make a a smooth moving abstract animation, since I always have been one to make things a tad personal.

I was thinking something in the line of:

or similar.

Just no idea how to go, beyond loading the GIF/GIFV into Gimp.

Anyone that can help me, or that can point to a good tut?

Thank you very much:

pretty hard to make Minecraft texture packs with this feature enabled, does anyone know how to disable it?

I have a scanned pencil drawing, so it's kind of shades of gray (no, not 50).

How can I make the lines black?

So far I have removed the white background by doing Color to Alpha.

I've tried to adjust Brightness/Contrast and Color Balance That did nothing.

My mouse came with the computer.  It is Cyberpower elite M1-161 gaming which Windows tells me is a Microsoft mouse.  I like the mouse but wonder if there is something better.  One thing I would like would to be able to change the cursor speed on the fly.  Sometimes for fine tuning a selection box for example I would like to slow it down momentarily and then restore to a fast movement.  I don't know what else I am missing.  Is there a more capable or better mouse?  What do the pros use?

Every time I close and open GIMP, the gradients tab goes invisible. I have to use ADD TAB each time to bring it back. Is there any method to make sure that existing tabs do not vanish with the Quit action ? Thanks.

Hi, is it possible to create a .ggr gradient file from an image ? If yes, please tell me how. Thanks.

Hi, I tried using an image in the folder " splashes " but nothing happened. Is it possible to customise the splash screen in Windows 10 ? Thanks.

Hi, is there any method to use this inside GIMP or Inkscape ?

I need to make a few texts based on Gold, Silver, Platinum and Bronze.  Thanks.

Hello.

I'm working to make a map on Gimp, and it's a huge image (16535x7087).

All was fine, i worked a lot on it, and i recently saw that some layers start to disappear partially or completely ! Like, "Amsterdam" became "Amster", or some illustration are cut in half, or some are completely gone

However, i can see that the layers are still complete theorically bc i see the dotted lines who are around the complete size of the layer (and they are still wrote in the layers screen in bottom right of course)

More and more layers are like that as i restart the project to work on it.

So firstly i thinked it was a RAM problem (i have 8GB RAM, and it's written "11.9GB" in the bottom center of the project page), so i copied the project and reduced by two the size of the image (now it's written 2.9GB) BUT the layers are still like that

Also, i just saw that when i modify a text layer, i can like delete a letter and rewrite it, and the complete text appear. I tried to move the non-text layers but nothing changed for them.

Does anyone know this problem ? 

Sorry for the big text, and eventually for my english idk

Thanks !
