  Trouble with Instagram profile picture
Posted by: d4ni3lolli - 02-14-2021, 04:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

Hello, there! I'd like some help setting an image for a Instagram profile. Everytime I upload it the image get distorted around the white name and the inside picture. I looked for some tutorials on Google and so on, tried some filters but I can't solve it. The image resolution is 1080x1080. Can someone help me? Thanks in advance! Smile

  Gimp won´t clean up my photos
Posted by: gridlock - 02-14-2021, 04:00 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I usually use Gimp to clean up photos of miniatures.
Normally i do the following thing drag and drop the photo into gimp, then click colors, levels and then auto.
There done, maybe do a few corrections here and there, but normally that is it.

Well for some reason Gimp won´t do that anymore.
I have tried opening its as administrator, tried to opening it through files, cutting out the relevant part of the photo and copying it the new page, Reinstalling it nothing helps.
Gimp simply treats my picture as if it isn´t there, anyone know how to fix it?

I am running the latest version of Windows 10.

  how to make smaller screenshots
Posted by: rrlangly - 02-13-2021, 07:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I want to take a screenshot of an app, but not so that the screenshot can be viewed full size.

I just want to show off the app w/o giving away too many of the details of the controls. And if someone tries to expand the size, it will be unreadable.

I will then post these screenshots on it's website.

Can anyone point to how that might be done?

  change colour from tan to black
Posted by: TheBadger - 02-13-2021, 12:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I want to change a colour to black (including all shades). If a part of my picture is red or tan, for example, I want to change it to black (like for a car or T-shirt). 

I've seen tutorials for colour changes using Rotate Colors, but these just handle RGB colours. 

All answers online do not address my issue, or they just assume I'm looking to change my pic to black and white. 

Thank you

  Shorcut to anulate all day's work?
Posted by: wpkzz - 02-12-2021, 08:21 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

It seems that I unwittingly discovered a keyboard shortcut to destroy all day's work. If that does indeed exist, I would like to know what I did, in order to not do it again by mistake.
I had been working on a B&W image that I converted to color, created many layers, colored the layers, put effects and transparencies, and, then, by reflex, i pressed something like an "Emacs Chord" (I guess it was Ctrl+x, Ctrl+s), while at the same time did something without knowing on the digital tablet. The image restored to the original B & W state, and closed gimp. When I opened it again, all work was gone and the Undo History was empty.
I do not know if the work can be saved (i seem to not know if there is some backup), but I would like to know exactly what I did or what i pressed.

Sad 2.10.disappointment??
Posted by: dhugg - 02-12-2021, 04:25 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (15)

wow,

its been a long time since i looked forward to going to a new release of software only to have the new version offer much less than the one being replaced (see windows 8)!!

i am hoping that my ignorance and lack of experience is the reason and that it can all be fixed.

i cant figure out for the life of me why anyone would design a new release that ignores all the hard work the users have put in to create expanded functionality through scripts.  from a distance it looks like they purposely slightly renamed variables so that scripts we are all used to using don't work.  i have gone through the effort of changing some of the scripts so they work for me but for the most part i find myself going to the old version 2.8 to complete a job because i need a script or two that they rendered useless??

i've read the release notes and while there is much improvement in the "inner workings" to the software what good is it if you end up removing functionality from the end product???

i also read where you can just "constantize" an old script and it will magically work but it never has for me yet!!  after all if that was the case why didn't development just constantize each script before release...  because it doesn't work!!  i don't understand why people would waste their time in the future writing scripts if they understand that a new release makes them useless!!

i was a mainframe programmer for 30 years and i know that in all 30 of those years i would have lost my career if i did not consider, and plan for, a "transition" from the old software to the new often times called seamless.

i think it is important to realize that not every person using the software is a graphic artist specialist or programmer!

please tell me that i have something wrong so that i can apologize for being so negative but the end product is DISAPPOINTING as is!!!

thanks for listening,

  Merging, blending layers
Posted by: avanca - 02-12-2021, 01:39 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi!

My question is, what are some ways to merge layers similar to Photoshop's blend mode (Darken, Multiply etc.)?

Also, I click with fuzzy selection and the selection outline does not show even though in the selection Historique d'annulacion there it shows multiple selections that were made. 

Many thanks
