Hate mobile phones, have a cheap-ish one for occasional use, turned off most of the time.

Putting it to some use, a 5 euro macro lens, 2 lenses screw together x12 + x12 and a 5 euro mobile clamp. Last of of the big spenders

In action: note the strange colour shift, must investigate that.

There are a few possibilities to create a spirograph design in gimp using plugins or filters (ex.: GMic-Qt /Testing / Samj / Rendering / Spirographe). One can also use other software with other/more possibilities. The one I like is 'spirograph 2' :

If the design made with this generator is according to one want, then one can click on the button 'Show SVG', copy the generated data from the window that show up, paste it in notebook and save it as a .svg file. One can load this file with all the used colors in Inkscape or as paths in gimp.

Hello,

Thank you

I would like to place text on a circle and use a background image to fill the text. I have found tutorials for both but not together? I have attached the text image.

First, let me say I am not techy. I installed gimp and am using it to scale photo's (I paint art). I also convert to Black and White. For some reason every time I go into artistic waterpixels it freezes, I opt to wait for the system to respond and 8 minutes later I can move a choice a few digits and it freezes again. I have removed gimp, reinstalled gimp, disconnected from the internet, etc, etc. This seems to be the only option to date that this happens to and of course its the one I need. Can anyone help me in non techy terms?

Plug-in crashed: "pspi.exe"
(C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\pspi.exe)

The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.


It's weird my super blade pro 1.8 was working perfectly fine then all of the sudden it stopped working I have tried removing it and reinstalling. Still not working. any help I would be ever so grateful

Hello everybody,

I have designed a plug-in for GIMP, but I need someone to program it for me.

Does anyone know where I can find a programmer with experience in GIMP plugins?

Thank you very much.

Hey there,

I am trying to reorganize file tabs by clicking and dragging to the position I want, but they do not move.  I've tried shift-click, ctrl-click, alt-click. win-click...nothing works.  What am I doing wrong?
