I'm trying to use this old "parchment" formula... (https://www.gimpusers.com/tutorials/old-pergament-paper) Not all FX are exactly the same, but I'm able to get close enough. However, whenever I try to run the "lighting" effect...with the "channel" being used as the bumpmap...the plugin crashes. Anyone have an idea why this might be? This parchment looks really good, so I'd really like to try this method.
I have GIMP 2.10.21 installed - extracted from the appimage - thanks to much help and advice from Rich.
Now I would like to upgrade it to 2.10.25. Is there a way to do this, or is it necessary to delete all the files including the config files and the .desktop file and re-install?
Also, I have acquired a new camera which uses .cr3 raw files, so nufraw no longer works. I could use rawtherapee but I find that complicated. It provides me with almost infinite ways of getting it wrong and I hate the gloomy interface (perhaps it is time for the braille version)!
Filmulator however works, is simple and has a nice clear UI. Would it be an advantage to extract this from its appimage?
With extracted appimages, is there a good way to upgrade/transfer these to another computer, for instance by a usb stick?
I have a finger print that needs to be on a white background.
I changed the background to white using Quick Mask, but the issue is that the finger print has crests / troughs, and the troughs color is that of the old background.
1. Is there a way to resolve this?
2. Is there a way to make the crests a deeper red?
I haven't used gimp in quite a few years and have forgotten quite a bit of what I used to know.
Any help would be appreciated.
Since about August 10th, Gimp 2.10.24 running on Zorin OS 16 (Equiv. Ubuntu 20.04), Gimp Rectangle Select or Ellipse Select keep reverting to "Expand From Center."
This is very disruptive to work flow. I have to keep opening the tool options and changing it back. But after a short time of use, it reverts itself back, unpredictably.
What I have tried: Removing GIMP directory from ~/.config
Doing the above and Uninstalling all portions of Gimp, then removing all remaining files and directories.
Settings are essentially at Default from installation.
I have been using Gimp (a lot) for a couple of years and I have never had this happen. I wondered if it was a Keyboard Shortcut I was bumping... But that seems a stretch.
I am using gimp 2.10.24.
I have a bmp image with 24-bit format.
I would like to export this BMP in 8-bit format.
How can i do that? The advanced option proposes only 16-bit, 24-bit and 32-bit formats.
Thanks in advance.
Stitch parts of a large scanned document can be done with commercial programs such as 'RasterStitch' but also it is possible to do this in gimp. It can be done in Hugin but using the SaulGoode 'sg-fit-face.scm script also can do the job : https://chiselapp.com/user/saulgoode/rep...d3f505fef2

Greetings, forum. Yesterday afternoon (Thu Aug 12, 2021), my GIMP 2.10.24-rev-1, on Windows 10 64-bit, started malfunctioning for no reason at all. Nothing in Windows had changed. Nothing in GIMP had changed.
The nature of the malfunction is, any attempt to click any sub-menu of the File menu ("New", "Open", "Save-As", "Export-As") causes GIMP to freeze. The program enters a "not-responding" state indefinitely and has to be terminated by first clicking the "X" in the upper-right corner, then clicking the "Terminate Program" button on the "this program is not responding" box that pops up, then clicking "cancel" on the "lets tell Microsoft all about this" box that then pops up.
This is not acceptable, because while I can edit and alter images all I like (by first opening them in GIMP via Windows Explorer, thus bypassing the broken "File" menu), I can't save any of my work!
Steps I've taken in attempt to solve this:
1. Re-installed GIMP on top of itself. Result: Problem persists.
2. Un-installed then re-installed GIMP. Result: Problem persists.
I'm at a loss. I have no idea what caused this problem, no idea of why uninstall-then-reinstall failed to fix it, and no idea on how to fix it. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
