Hi, I often find it difficult to locate gimp on my taskbar because it doesn't have a clear and constant logo, but rather a mini version of the active image in gimp. Is it possible to set wilber as a fixed logo on the tabs in the taskbar?

tnx

I'm making correction and text additions to numerous photographs. All are imported from JPG files and set to 8 1/2 X 11 inch landscape at 300 dpi.
After making the necessary edits I save the picture in GIMP's default XCF file format. I then check the image size and canvas size to make sure they are the same, usually 8 1/4 X 10 3/4 inches to account for printer margins. I then print out a sample on plain paper. I'll use either an HP Envy 5055 inkjet or our Konica-Minolta bizhub C558. I'll check all the setting of the printers and then print.

I've yet to get a print that is 8 1/4 X 10 3/4. The print is usually 6 1/5 X 8 3/4. What gives?

A set of brushes / dynamics / presets specifically for Gimp 2.10.20  These largely replicate the mypaint brushes but in native Gimp format.  Aimed at the more artistic Gimp user.

You can download and the read notes, view example videos at https://github.com/SenlinOS/SLOS-GIMPainter

I tried out in kubuntu linux Ok there and a quick try with a Win10 Gimp 2.10.20. Installation at its most basic. Copy the SLOS folders to the respective (brush / tool-presets / dynamics) User profile folders. Example for the brushes.

   

You can access the presets bottom of the Tool options menu but depending on screen size a separate dock works well with icons.

   

Obviously a lot of work has gone into these resources.

I'm looking at some of these photos online that people submit to freeware sites for public use and what not. There are tons of great stuff to play around with as well as some amazing photos I personally would never give out for free.

Even though they posted/uploaded it to these websites for public use, is it still illegal to use them in your work? If you buy them do you own the photo or just get a copy of it?

Also, if anyone knows any good websites to find cool background or photos that are totally 100% free please let me know!

Some joy for linux flatpak users. (and some whinges from me)

Update your flatpak

   
Here's the situation. I have two pictures that have three people in each. I want to combine the two pictures so I end up with a single picture with four people in it. I tried erasing all unwanted feature in one picture thinking I could move it to the other picture, the layers overlap.
Suggestions. See attached (I hope) sample.

Hi everyone.

I proposed a new feature for Visual Studio Code and I need 20 upvotes to get it implemented.

If you feel inclined to help, please give it an upvote. Here's the link:

Thanks in advance.

it's not bad?

Might use this for my signature on steam..

I wanted to add 'sea currents' to a map, as in the figure:
   
It could be done in Inkscape through 'markers', but I wanted it as a purely 'stroke path'--better for small, indexed images.
As can be seen, I succeeded trough the following steps:
- oriented paths made in Gimp
- export them to svg, and open in Inkscape
- Inkscape Extensions -> Modify Paths -> Add Nodes... -> By max. segment length = 30.0px
- import the modified paths into Gimp, and:

• * ofn-path-edits -> Disjoin strokes
  
• * ofn-path-to-shape -> Functions on segments -> Modify segments -> Start=0, End=50
  
• * manually edit 2 of the segments in the resulting paths (it should be evident which ones would need adjusting)
  
• * path-arrow-heads at ends...
