Hello! I've found my images look better when I import an images resolution higher than 100 pix/in. 

What is an optimal setting for importing an image to not lose quality?

thank you!

Hi everybody,

I'm quite totally newbie with Gimp.

As a result, I need some trivial help.

I would like to add a texture to an image.
So, I have my image on a layer and a bump (it is something like that, 3D designers call this) in a second layer.

I've selected Addition for layers mode. It results something not so bad, but, naturally, to much colors of the image saturate to white like expected.

In my mind, bump's range should be [ -128, 127 ] to render as wanted.
Unfortunately, I don't see how to do that.

Perhaps, it's not the right method. Don't know.

Thanks to enlighten me.

Have a nice day and enjoy.

Didier.

It seems that scanner support in Gimp (ie File ➤ Create ➤ Scan...) just requires the proper scanner software in one of the plugins directory.

On my Ubuntu, for "distro" Gimp, I find that there is a link in /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plugins to /usr/bin/iscan and that's enough (I can add scanner support to my self- compiled version by adding that same link at the right place).

However iscan looks and functionality leave much to be desired, so is there another app that can act as a Sane scanner for Gimp? I assume it should do the right thing when Gimp calls it for registration?

I would like to turn this image into an IRAY decal node to place as a tattoo on the back of one of my models, so what I need to do is have like a little bit of black gradient come out from the skull but also end preety close to the skull, like a 100 pixel gradient from the skull out that would turn from black to white to simulate something like a black canvas on the characters skin. That's all.

Is it possible to have the selection extend outside of the canvas?

In some of my plugins I have the following situation: The plugin works on a path. I want to restrict the effect to some part of the path. For this I use a selection. But a path can go outside of the canvas. Does this mean that anchors outside of the canvas cannot be chosen using a selection?

Hi, I heavily depend on Filters > Edge Detect > Difference of Gaussians (legacy ) to convert images into line art. During the last couple of days ( perhaps a week ), whenever I use this option, the output is a blank canvas.

Then I tried to use bede plugin which worked fine for Artistic > Comic Book for 2.10. Sadly, I am getting this error now

Hi,

I'm a novice in Gimp, so, sorry if the question is too dumb.

I added a layer in Gimp. After I clicked the hide layer button, the layer is vanished but what remains is something with black and white squares as shown in the image below. I want it to vanish, too i.e I want a complete blank background.

Thank you.

   

   

I installed resynthesizer and bimp. Additionally I installed some brushes and fonts. I also installed AppImage for Gimp. On Monday evening I got everything running. Yesterday resynthesizer was gone but the rest was still there. My gimp crashed several times today. Suddenly resynthesizer was running but my installed fonts, brushes and bimp were gone. They are still in the folders they should be in but somehow gimp has forgotten them. I have the latest version of gimp running under linux unbuntu 20.04. Has anyone an idea what happened? I don't get it.

Total noob: Someone on discord thought I could do this and how would i do it if it can be done.

Can I import a jpg or dds and export as a png with an accompanying  jason file?
The actual dds would be this when done      .PNG.DDS   ( I guess this really is a .dds with .png in it?   (its the format of textures in MSFS 2020)
and the jason file would be this:       .PNG.DDS.json

Thanks,
BobM.
