Is there a way to set the aspect ratio default in the set image canvas size? Everywhere I read says that it should default to linked. Mine does not.

Also, if I reopen the dialog box again after clicking resize, it does not retain the linked status.

I don't know if it's something I did without realizing it or something else, but every time I try to copy an entire image and paste it to the transparent background that I have waiting in another tab, the image is really closely cropped and I can't scale the image without it looking stretched anymore. I use GIMP to make thumbnails for YouTube. I don't really explore much in the software, just sticking to the things that I'm familiar with.

If it helps, my OS is Windows 10, 64-bit.

Also, here's a screenshot of what I mean:

   

I'd like to cut a face of someone and paste onto another, they have different skin colors
of course. After selecting and cutting the face, what is the next step to do? 
Would you please highlight me the key steps I'll probably need?

I am not sure what is wrong. Is there a fix for this ? I was using @rich2005 's the G'MIC plugin. I just removed that to check but this preview error exists with the default AppImage with Plugins version : GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.25-20210408-withplugins-x86_64

   

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.

Should be drawing up house plans     procrastination rules.

   

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 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

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:

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 !

The software GIMP failed to load large gif. When I loaded the gif in GIMP, most of the frames became transparent/nothing. The number of frames is 1905

What happened? How can I fix this?
I am using a Windows 10 laptop.
By the way, this below is the link to the video:
