  Photo to emoji
Posted by: meetdilip - 05-13-2021, 02:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I have seen some Apple emojis which is face to emojis. I wonder whether there is any plugin or feature that we can use to convert a Photo into a not real-life face.

If I can get anything close enough, it will be ok to put some effort and make it look like this. Thanks.


This service looks very promising

This is kind of paid, but we can take screenshots. Not perfect, but works for my use case.

  Undeletable multi-page tif files
Posted by: rich2005 - 05-11-2021, 09:14 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

A multi-page tagged image format (tif / tiff) becomes undeletable in Windows. Apparently it is the embedded thumbnails in the tif file which screws up Windows Explorer.

The best solution from the Gimp developers is prevention. Export the tif file with thumbnails disabled. Untick the thumbnails option.

   

What can you do if you have an "undeletable" tif file. Not straight forward in Windows for any undeletable file
1. Right click in the task bar to open Windows task manager.
2. Locate  Windows Explorer and End Task.
3. Use the file option  
4. Open a command shell
5. Find and delete the tif file(s)
Get the desktop back using File -> Run New Task -> explorer.

   


A 5 minute video going through that. https://youtu.be/B_jKnaWFXCQ





Spot the mistake at the end Wink I deleted the wrong file. Should have been thumbnail.tif file. Always be careful.

Do not be put off by your Windows computer black command shell, I changed the colours to make it easier to see in the video.
The commands used 
cmd - starts the command shell
cd is change directory (directory = folder) 
cd.. (cd-dot-dot) is go up one level
dir (directory listing)
dir *.tif filters out the tiff files
del (delete) as del filename.tif

  How can I use file-glob to only return files with certain extensions?
Posted by: charlweed - 05-10-2021, 09:38 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

I'm trying to use python-fu in GIMP. I would like pdb.file_glob to return an array of image files in the format I specify. I tried:

Code:
myGlob = "*.png|*.PNG|*.jpg|*.JPG|*.gif|*.GIF|*.xcf|*.XCF"
globpath = os.path.join(patternDir, myGlob)
num_files, files = pdb.file_glob(globpath, 0)
But the files array is always empty, I assume because the glob syntax is invalid.
Note that if I use
Code:
myGlob="*"
I get the graphics files I want, but I also get files such as "fake.txt" and sub-directories, both I want to exclude.
I would also like the documentation for file-glob, I don't want to clone the repo and try and read the c++ source.
Thanks!

  Black and White
Posted by: Nico - 05-09-2021, 12:06 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello !

I'm trying to reproduce that type of black and white with GIMP : https://64.media.tumblr.com/3e9799783df3...607478.png

It's more complicated than I tought. I think this picture may be realised with photoshop but perhaps I can do the same with GIMP ?

I tried a lot of things but now I don't know what to do. I can't find any tutorial on the internet.

Thank you in advance !

  how to blur the edges of an annular steiner chain
Posted by: WoodGoat - 05-08-2021, 07:31 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello:

  I've been trying to figure out how to blend the edges of a G'mic generated annular steiner chain with round tiles. I've tried feathering by creating a channel selection then inverting it- didn't work.  I then tried a gradient and that didn't work; blurs (gaussian, etc.) affect the whole image and I simply want to blur the edges of the round tiles (circles).

I'm using gimp 2.10 on win 8 64bit. 

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  Need help isolating object against alpha channel
Posted by: sayluv - 05-08-2021, 05:24 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi-

I am trying to isolate my dog in my project but I forgot to add the alpha channel. I tried creating a new image so I could select and past the dog in but when I do a fuzzy select I cant get it to select the dog or the white so that I can invert it.

Thx

  Mask doesn't leave outline
Posted by: sayluv - 05-07-2021, 03:52 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (3)

Hi-
When I use any of the masks they no longer leave the little gray dotted mask outline like they used to on Osx. I am running the latest version GIMP 2.10.14 on the latest version of OSx. When I run Gimp on my Surface Pro with windows 10 I do see the mask outline as expected.  

Has anyone experienced this or have a fix?

Thx
