I am specking a new computer.  Any recommendations for ram?  I'll probably go with 16 GB but can I get better performance in Gimp with 32 GB?  

Also any thoughts on a processor?  Is Intel integrated graphics good enough? 630 UHD or the newer 750 UHD?  Any thoughts would be welcome.

How can I get a hazy-like blend with a light and dark color of the same color, so that the color is not a static, plain, solid color in Gimp 2.10? 

I have tried the smudge tool, but it erases down to the alpha channel background in places, which just makes it very difficult, not to mention annoying and unsatisfactory.

[attachment=6929]Working with a TIFF file of aerial orthoimagery from the State of Maine. Because the passes I'm using were only for land-forms (tide levels) portions of the imagery were omitted. The attachment shows a white space in the aerial runs which I would like to try to fill to more or less match the surrounding color/patters. Been struggling with the Fill with Pattern but perhaps this is not the right tool? Pointers to examples or tutorials very welcome.

Whenever I activate a layer and click on it, a Filter window pops open automatically- the last Filter I had been using. Is there a "sticky" setting somewhere? Thanks.

How I made wings :

- render / mass render / paint along paths (use gradient)

Hello,
Is there a way to mask a layer using a Bezier curve (non-destructively so that the curve can later be altered with the path editor and the mask altered too).

Thanks.

I'm trying to make a custom texture for a model for Gmod, but it has a alpha mask layer that I need if I want it to work. Found a way to properly retexture it in GIMP, but when I try to export it an error message pops up with the error code: '# error_layergroup_wrapper'. I've looked evrywhere online, but there is no results for this error. 
Why does this happen and how can I fix it?

In previous versions of G'MIC I was able to make the generated layer name come out with the specifications of the filter used.

But now, using version 2.99 provided by Samj's Portable 2.10.28, I can't produce this change in layer names.

In G'MIC I go to Configuration... - Others - Output Messages, and whatever my selection does not change the output mode.


Is this how G'MIC is working right now? Would it be a problem with my version?

Is there any solution to let me create the name of the layers with the settings of the filters used?

Regards

Effecting chopped paths...  
   

I am running GIMP 2.10 and 2.8 very sucessfully after following a Rich2005 video. I am trying to install GMIC into both of them but just going around in circles. I have seen many blogs on the subject, but find it all very hard to digest. 
I have attached a copy of the address's to which I have tried for 2.8 (2.10 is simlar). I am not sure if I am even trying to install the correct version as I am coming up with heaps of .dll issues. I have read some of the help blogs from Rich, but when I try to follow any of the web addresses he suggests, none of them will open to the appropriate web page. 
I have also found that the GIMP version I am using (2.10.28) has some issues with GMIC, but I can't seem to find the solution to install in either version. 
Apologies if I treading over much discussed ground, but it is not through lack of trying and heaps of frustration that I have referred to the forum.
