  Stitching images seamless animation
Posted by: doodle - 01-05-2021, 06:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (10)

I am looking to make an animated caustic map. I know pretty much how to make it but need it placed perfectly. I need to put an image 256x256 image on lower left of my canvas, then place another 256x256 image on the right side of the first image and continue for 8 images, then add another line starting on the the left for a tota of 8 lines with each line having 8 256 x 256 images, so when finished will be one giant image. Is there a way to get the images to snap into the correct space? I am having a little trouble getting them exactly placed.

Thanks

  GEGL operation missing
Posted by: CtrlAltDel - 01-05-2021, 05:19 AM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (4)

[Image: nMMwMQK.png]

Hi, Rich.  I'm trying to get the latest version of the AppImages to work and get the message above.  It's the last few releases that do this.

https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-app...continuous

The latest is GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.23-20201231-withplugins  and I've tried 2 or 3 directly before this and they have the same result. I've looked in Synaptic and there is not an exact match for gegl introspect.

What has changed lately that makes the AppImages not work, where the older ones still do, and what would you recommend be done about it?  I've looked in Synaptic at a few of the Gegl packages, thinking of maybe trying to fix this without asking for help, and decided against installing anything before checking with you.

  GIMP's Data Storage
Posted by: VeroniCatCat_07 - 01-05-2021, 03:23 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi, everyone!

Newbie here. I just recently installed the GIMP software and I would like to ask regarding the software's storage. Does it save files or creates a backup automatically to a cloud storage?

I look forward to your feedback.

Thank you!  Angel

  ofn-enclosing-circle
Posted by: Ofnuts - 01-04-2021, 11:48 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (19)

A plugin that determines the smallest circle that contains a shape, and does things with it.

   

Still a bit experimental, use with caution and read the doc.

One use is to frame your avatar/logo in your image when you know that the "social" site is going to mercilessly crop it to a trendy circle that will make you miss an eye.

As usual, available here.

  Help! Gimp stopped working.
Posted by: chris64 - 01-04-2021, 09:10 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I upgraded to Big Sur. Now I have Gimp issues. I try to download the latest gimp but see on the website that GIMP 2.10.22 build for macOS - has known performance issues on Big Sur. Perhaps my issues are more serious than the normal ones that they're talking about.

Whenever I use paintbrush, Gimp becomes slow. This isn't the usual slow. It's so slow that it's almost unusable.

  Wrinkled cloth textures and shadows.
Posted by: eepjr24 - 01-04-2021, 05:54 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Does anyone know of a good tutorial for wrinkled cloth textures? Can be with either general digital drawing techniques or a plug in / GIMP specific technique. I am trying to get better with ore realistic textures as I develop a map without using elements from other artists. I have a tent image (top down) and I would like to give the canvas a more realistic texture, even if it is slight. Perhaps cloth bunching at the rope connection points or more of a folded cloth appearance at the tent flap?

Also, I have an attempt at the shadows done but I am not pleased with the results. Drop Shadows on another layer look great for the tent itself, but on the ropes, the shadows should merge to the stake (instead of appearing equidistant from the rope along it's entire length) and I am unsure how to make that happen. I tried drawing them in by hand with a low opacity 12.5% round brush, which looks like it could work with a lot of practice, but if there is another way I would love to hear about it.

   

As always, thanks for yout time.

  easy cad on gimp ?
Posted by: denzjos - 01-04-2021, 05:36 PM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

I often searched for a simple (auto)cad command plugin / script for gimp to create paths. I found the same question in a post from 2006. 
https://www.gimpusers.com/forums/gimp-us...8-gimp-cad
No more post found concerning this issue. So there is no intrest in such thing. But, as I have some Script-Fu scripts to create a circle, rectangle, etc....  I wonder if there exist something like the command menu of 'multiple guides' script, something like this (easier working than working with guides): 
Line (start point / end point):
L | x1,y1 | x2,y2 |
Circle (center point / radius)
C |x1,y1 | x2
Ellips (center point / axis x / axis y)  
E |x1,y1 | x2 | y2
Arc (start point / end point / radius)
A (x1,x2 | x2,y2 | value
It would be possible with such thing to easy create a simple technical sketch and further pimp it up in gimp. I noticed that there existing now a lot of applications in gimp to work with paths, so many things are possible. It is not the intention to make gimp a cad program but such a thing would be nice.

  Need Help! Trying to make different color variations of same image.
Posted by: bdm634 - 01-03-2021, 10:34 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I am creating a playing card game. I created the first card with borders and color gradient through the card and some text.

Is there an easy way to make different variations of the same card, like changing the color of the borders and gradient without having to do every card over again.

Thanks in advance

  get rid of path/lock
Posted by: Nino - 01-02-2021, 03:07 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi

I have a problem with paths! I've used them to cut a portion of a picture, but now I can't get rid of them. Every time I open a picture the program select the path mode and I fail to get the normal pointer (selection).
What can I do? I searched Google and a lot of tutorial but without any success!

I use the program in Italian so I'm not sure if the correct term is "path" or "lock".

Please help me, I'm getting mad!

Thank you very much

  Realistic GIMP Focus Blur Plugin - Once lost, now found!
Posted by: godolphin - 01-02-2021, 01:50 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (15)

I did not create this plug-in, but I went searching for it a few months back for a project but couldn't find it anywhere online. I was combing through my old laptop today and found the zip file from 2014. I uploaded it to Google Drive so other people can try to use it.

What is it? Its the most realistic optical focus blur I've used aside from Snapseed, Google Camera, and PS. Has a lot of bokeh adjustments and looks very convincing if used correctly. Here is the link to the file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OabSFgy...sp=sharing

I can't promise it'll work with the newest version of GIMP, so don't ask me for tech support. Enjoy!
