I have a requirement where I have to change the colour of this purple to green and yellow. I tried " selecting by colour, delete and then fill " . Then tried " Colorize ". Both had its own issues. Mainly burrs on the edges in the first case and the cloud colour also changing in the second method. So I gave up miserably and tried to select white, add a layer on top and then fill it with white. So that I get cloud and it is easier for me to manage the rest. But as you can see in the image above, there is this strange fog at the edges of the fill. Kindly help me fix it. Thanks.

Hi, 


I'm new to Gimp and I need to use it from the command line as it is part of an automation process. 
I'm starting with a super simple command : 

gimp-2.10.exe -i -b "(let* ((image (car (file-tiff-load 1 C:\Users\Camille\Documents\test.tif C:\Users\Camille\Documents\test.tif)))))"

I keep getting this error: 

batch command experienced an execution error:
Error: eval: unbound variable: C:\Users\Camille\Documents\test.tif

I did lots of forum but I haven't found anything working. Also I tried with adding single/double quotes but doesn't change anything. I tried with -b "(gimp-quit 0)" in the end but doesn't change anything either and same when I use gimp-console-2.10.exe. 
I'm running the command with windows 10. 

Can anyone help me?

I am aware that this has been mentioned in various ways earlier throughout the forum; however, they are just old enough and I'm not completely sure if they are the same issue that I am having.  

As the subject says my version of gimp seems to ALWAYS freeze while I try to scale my drawing(s).  I thought I found a work around and scale it slowly, but it doesn't help.  At least not for a long substantial time.  

My computer is brand new (relatively speaking.  I bought it back around Feb/March).  It's a gaming computer.  

According to my info.  (Not completely sure what is important). 

16 gb of ram (15.8 useableseale) 


64 bit os 

Windows C drive has 743 GB free of 929 GB 

My CPU usage at this point as I type this:  

I have five apps open (browser with three tabs; GIMP; task manager, system info box; file tab).  
CPU is at 3% usage (changing of course) 
37% memory. 

All in I should have more than enough power to run/keep running the program.  

Using 2.10.22 (the previous version before updating was doing the same thing.  I thought perhaps updating would help).  

I cleaned out my hardrive / junk/ etc.  

I am at a lost of what else to do.  

Thank you advance for any assistance, and as per assistance please keep it noob-level.  I know enough about computers to break them... not fix them after they're broken.  

Hello,
W10 gimp 2.10.22
How to install any python plugin.
Would like a working small example
e.g. from WW

I used gimp to create some graphics for a software program that I created.

The font and graphic looked like this.

   

It's a simple but cool little 8 bit styled font, I believe it was called "automat".

Between then and now I have purchased a new computer and this font is not present.

I was using an apple with either high sierra or mojave depending on when I did this graphic.

I bought a new apple with Catalina and it seems this font is no longer a part of the system, but I can't find this font anywhere, I google searched multiple different sites and although some of them have a font called "automat" it's not this one.

I don't know if I'm mis-remembering the name or something but I really need to find this font.

Does anyone know this font or where I can get it?

Thanks.

Hi,   I can't find anywhere to click to get to my profile to change my PASSWORD. Ch.

Hi, When I log in to Gimp-Forum.net I'm asked to reset my password. O.K., I then get in.  When I  Re-sign in again next time, that password wont let me in & I have to get a new password sent. Is there a way I can customise my own password in my user account somehow that will work next time I sign in or do I have to ask for a new password sent to my email every time? Ch.

I've been using 2.8.22 on a Mac desktop, and just did a download of 2.10.22 on a PC laptop… and instead of the wonderful tool bar I'm used to, I've got these itsy-bitsy little icons, most of which actually represent several functions that I'm used to clicking on directly. This is just unusable! I figured out how to increase the size of the toolbox, but it isn't making the icons any bigger. Can someone PLEASE show me how to change what I've got into something I don't need to get new stronger reading glasses to use?

Secondarily, I REALLY hate this dark gray, it's very hard to read tiny white text against; can I possibly get bigger text on a light background? I've increased the base size of everything in the system to 150%, but, as warned, it doesn't affect the size of anything in certain programs, including this one.


       

Hello, all. I've been a user of PhotoShop Elements for, like, 15 years, and am coming to GIMP for this particular issue, seeing as PhotoShop Elements does not have this capability and I do not have money to upgrade to a full version. So... while I am no newbie to photo editing programs, GIMP is new and confusing to me, as is this issue I'm posting which is a whole 'nother mess. Lol

I will start by saying I am a The Sims modder and that's what this is for.

Christmas/the holidays are coming up and I want to create some cute holiday light stuff for my game. In order to do so, I need to understand alpha layers and light maps. I asked another modder for help a year ago, and I have a firm understanding of how to do everything related to coding and all, I just don't understand the photo editing alpha layer part of it.

In the modding program, the DDS file is considered a light map, and the light map appears black with bright areas where things light up.

That seemed simple enough, BUT it is achieved through alpha layers, and I never could quite figure this out. The modder in question gave me this advice, but I couldn't make sense of it:

"If you're in the channel panel, click add or new channel and it will automatically add Alpha. Red, Blue, Green channels should already be there. After that, copy your blue channel to the alpha channel, so that your alpha channel is NOT all black."

I think her advice was referring to PS, but GIMP has an alpha feature, so I wonder if anyone here could make sense of it? I don't understand alpha layers at all. I have never worked with them. I've only been modding for a year, as well.

How did you organize your archive?

How do you store files? What hardware do you use? What software do you use?

How do you catalog the files in your archive? What software do you use?

I want my archive to be reliable. I want to find files in archive quickly. I want to use automated archiving and cataloging tools, schedule. I want to make few copies of archive automatically. I want to store copies of archive in different locations. I run Windows 10 Home 64-bit.
