Can anyone explain why an underlying layer disturb an image ?

screen dump original image :

   

screen dump image with underlying transparent layer (some details disappear ):

   

The image is RGB

I'm using gimp to apply freckle textures to a face texture for a video game. All textures are other peoples' work; I'm just pasting the freckles as a new layer onto the face and colorizing them. This is my first exposure to GIMP. I noticed that the face freckle texture is lighter than the neck freckle texture. As a result, when colorized to the same HTML value and applied to the character model, the neck freckles are much darker than the rest (example). Since the original freckle textures as greyscale, is there a way to normalize the max pixel intensity of the neck freckle texture to that of the face, so that they come out to a balanced intensity?

Hello,
accidentally I changed the camera mode while taking pictures. Now I would like to use the histogram match script to change the images via script or command line command.

Who can provide a working example? Does the script work with Gimp 2.10?

The tools in Gimp have disappeared up. Even if I change the visible tools in Settings, I get the same size of the toolfield.
I use Gimp  2.10.18
in Lubuntu
   

Hi guys.

Im some what new to gimp, and for a brief moment I was able to select the eraser mode to remove a specifca colour from my image. now it is blanked out and stuck on normal. Not just on this image, but all.. Any idea how to select this?

Hi, I haven't used Gimp but I'm looking for a tool that can help me with this. 

I make Kindle books featuring vintage illustrations from children's books. Many of the illustrations were printed not quite square. They look okay in the books because the margins are very large and they are not very far off from square.

But in my Kindle books I want to make the illustrations full screen. When I do so, the slight slants of some of the borders become obvious. 

In the attached example, see how the bottom border (and the text too), are horizontal, but the other three borders are not square. I don't think the artist made it that way; I think the distortion happened during the book production in 1918. If Gimp can help me warp it back into square, I think that would be closer to the artist's original work.

Any suggestions?

Greetings, folks--

I am running Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon.  I am using an AppImage of GIMP 2.10.19.

I am trying to install Resynthesizer.  I have downloaded the plugin and the gui, copied them to
 /home/peter/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/plug-ins
but they still don't show up in the filters pull down menu.  What am I missing here?

Thanks for your help.

GIMPs Color->Auto->Whitebalance tool does more or less exactly what I want. But I want to run it on a single image from command line but it doesn't seems to be that easy.

There are many SCM scripts out there that does some sort of white balance but not using this menu item directly like this Luca De Alpharo's white balance script linked from this post https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-White-...te+balance

In the GIMP source code I can see that histograms are extracted for each RGB channel for Color->Auto->Whitebalance and but in the SCM above there is no histogram extraction and the same applies for a few other white balance scripts I've found.

How can I run GIMP Color->Auto->Whitebalance from the command line (without user interaction) or at least something very similar?
ilar?

GIMP 2.8 Ubuntu 16.04

I use a program called knobman to create custom knob skins for music software.

The one real limitation to knobman is that it can only do 8 items on a list type graphic, see image.

when I need to make a list graphic that is more than 8 long I will make 2 separate lists and combine them in gimp.

this has always worked fine, until recently I updated to OSX catalina and did a fresh re-install of all my programs, now gimp is causing this issue.

   


the text at the very top that says "Voice To Pitch" is exported directly from knobman and looks exactly as it should.

the text below that which says "Natural, Quantized, Major" etc... has been imported into gimp and stitched together to create a longer list and then exported back out, but it's made the text fat and a little blurry.

does anyone have any idea how to correct this?

Thanks.

I have an image that looks perfectly fine in the normal editing mode in Gimp, but when I go to the printing dialog, the print preview image is significantly different. The image shown in the print preview is overly saturated and darker, and I've tried to change options in the print dialog like "Color Mode" and "Quality" but there's no effect on the print preview image. The print preview image is a more accurate representation on what actually is printed though, so in that respect the print preview works.

What are my options if I want to get the print preview and the printed image closer to what I see in Gimp? Do I have to desaturate and lighten the image before I attempt to print it or is there a smarter way to get the print preview and printed image more in line with what I see in the normal editing mode?
