  Vitamin bottle labels
Posted by: Youraturd - 04-30-2020, 10:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hi,
I’m a beginner using gimp I know how to use most of the basics, I am currently trying to design my own supplement range. I have managed to create a box design in gimp and I have created a label for my supplement.

I am trying to find a way of wrapping my label around a vitamin bottle, is there any good tutorials for this?

  Ghostscript & PuTTy
Posted by: PeaceLuth - 04-30-2020, 09:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Back in 2015 when I installed GIMP it wouldn't work scheit. I checked around and was told I should load PuTTy and Ghostscript. I am on the latest GIMP on a Win7 box, soon to be replaced with a Win10 box. Are those two programs needed any more?

  List Window Very Small
Posted by: Grand Injunction - 04-30-2020, 07:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Is there a way to make my brush list window stretch out to the edges of the toolbox? As it's currently set up, I have to scroll left and right to see all the details of the brush options, which doesn't make sense, as there's plenty of room.

I started learning Gimp a few days ago, so I may be overlooking an obvious solution.

Thanks!

  Help with exporting as PDF and loosing layout please?
Posted by: PMan22 - 04-30-2020, 05:25 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi everyone,
I'm running GIMP 2.10.18. I've spent a long time making individual pages for a recipe book for charity and now that I've come to export them as PDFs for print the PDFs are not coming out with the layout. The main design I have on most pages is a curve shape drawn with path tool, filled in white, and in a layer group with a photo so that the photo (on multiply) fits inside the curve shape. However, when I go to export the curve disappears and the photo is in its original rectangular shape taking up half the page. It also shows ALL of the layers, even hidden ones - I have crossed omit hidden layers but for some reason it puts them all into the PDF anyway. And finally, it also gives black outlines to all of my shapes (boxes and bars) instead of just being flat.
The main problem is the photos in the curve though so if anyone knows how to fix this please let me know. I'm pretty much a graphic design novice I just enjoy doing these things and am doing it voluntarily for the charity to raise funds for them, but equally I would like it to be good! I'm sure its probably something simple that I just don't know about yet. Thank you so much in advance!

  Text along path - Pink tint?
Posted by: ArnieMoose - 04-30-2020, 01:26 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Greetings friends,

I'm messing around trying to create a logo for a rec league basketball team, and I've gotten pretty far, but I've encountered a weird problem while trying to get text along path to work.
The problem being, after I select the path, when I fill, the color I pick is not the color that is displayed, everything is tinted red for some reason. I will attach the .xcf so people can see the problem for themselves if it is not clear.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Can anyone recommend plug-ins or filters that can simulate the photographic style of Anton Corbijn?

There are some photographic examples at the following link:

  major problem running Gimp after upgrade from 2.8
Posted by: vincent - 04-30-2020, 09:42 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi all,

I was using 2.8 , then I install 2.10.18 without uninstalling 2.8 and Gmic
First time I run 2.10.18 everything works, all my old brushes are still there(which surprised me).

The next time I run it, the heal selection gave error message. I uninstall everything then deleted all associated folders. 
Re-install 2.10.18 It gave multiple errors when I open, but could open after I kept deleting those error messages. But heal selection still popup error messenge when I tried to use it.

Uninstall everything, install 2.8 . It couldn't open, error messenge: couldn't find a particular file. Using windows explorer, I found the file at the exact location that the error messenger says it couldn't find. Maybe I messed-up something when I deleted all associated folders after un-installing.

Please kindly help. The only thing I can think of is reformat my HDD, which is extremely drastic.

  Childhood photo revival
Posted by: meetdilip - 04-29-2020, 09:27 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

I have an old days colour photo with some sepia / brown tint. I used Filter > Enhance > Despeckle to get rid of noise.

Is it possible to remove the brownish / sepia tint as well ? To make the photo look fresh. Thanks.

  resynthesize without heal-plugins
Posted by: lorenz - 04-29-2020, 06:53 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (16)

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 and I tried to install gimp 2.10.18 via apt from the ubuntu-repositories and via ppa:otto-kesselgulasch
In both cases i was able to install gimp-plugin-registry too, I get Filter/Map/Resynthesize, but no Filter/Enhance/Heal selection nor Heal transparency.
I tried to install resynthesizer from different sources I found in the web, all with the same effect.
 
Running gimp from the terminal, I get this errors:
