  Adding a color overlay to an animated gif.
Posted by: Karrade - 02-25-2020, 02:03 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello, I used to have access to ps. Now I am trying to replicate what I used to do with gimp.

In PS when I wanted to alter the color of an image I would add a layer that was a single color then blend it or alter its transparency, this would stay visible over every frame in the gif. How can I add color over an entire animated gif in gimp? I want to give images a brown or orange tone usually, sometimes lighter but usually those colors. 

If this isn't possible in a simple way, can you tell me a complicated way to replicate a tone over the top of all the gif frames? Thank you.

  3D sinking text
Posted by: denzjos - 02-23-2020, 04:25 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (3)

A saw the 3D text on the internet (made with inkscape) and I thought why not try this in gimp. Here's the flow :
- new layer (white)
- choose text Kenney Future Square (load it from https://www.1001fonts.com/search.html?se...re&x=0&y=0)
- type your text (here 'GIMP' / color light blue - name the layer GIMP)
- Tools / Transform Tools / Shear - value 120)
   
- Tools / Transform Tools / Rotate - value - 24,10)
   
Remark : in this case -24.10 , the 2 corner points the bottom of the 'G' must be in a vertical line (tip : use a raster)
- Chose a lighter foregrond color
- Make a new layer (transparent - in the example name it 'G')
- Make selections with the selection box on the 'G' layer (use shift for making multiple selections)
   
- Fill the selections with the lighter color (on the 'G' layer)
- Make the layer Gimp current layer
- With the 'Fuzzy Select Tool', select the 'G'
   
- Inverse the selection (on the gimp menu : Select / Invert)
- Make the 'GIMP' layer current layer
- Delete (on the keyboard)
- Select / None
- Now it looks that the 'G' is sinking down
- The same workflow for the other text characters

I following this tutorial, getting good but from min. 7 on the thing he does is not working for me.
I just draw blak lines on a face.
Not an easy question I know, but what do I do wrong.
Also when I use descaling ,I don't see the grid and can't make my picture smaller.
I work on a Mac.

Kind regards.

  Is there a way to deselect the gaps in an item with fuzzy select?
Posted by: marigolden - 02-22-2020, 09:41 PM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

fuzzy selecting an item to stroke an outline, but i don't want the gaps within it to be outlined as well. When I try to deselect the gaps it just drops the entire selection. Any way around this while still using the fuzzy select tool and not paths?


Hahah okay so researching this...I came across one of my old posts, and saw Blighty's trick of selecting the background then inverting! Lol >< so, that's solved

  Selecting Large Amount of Small Specks
Posted by: Gimpy222 - 02-22-2020, 03:01 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

I have several hundred scanned pages I received as 1-bit images. The person that scanned them left a LOT of specks 1 to 10 pixels in diameter. To manually remove them will take weeks. Is there a script that will select all the specks and change them to background color and then save them as the same file name?

The text is rather bumpy, but I doubt there is anything that can be done with that.

Thanks Sandy

  Changing an image to one shade of black
Posted by: St1mz - 02-21-2020, 10:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello, I am St1mz. Sorry if I’m kind of an anime fan, but I really want to make a shirt of megumin, and I have an image of her, but I want to make it just one color, complete black, so that I can cut it out with my fabric machine. Is it possible to color it to just straight black, with no shading, just pure black? I linked the image I’m trying to turn to black below.

  Fill not working on new layer, what am I doing wrong
Posted by: dmacleod - 02-21-2020, 11:33 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

When I have an image with a single layer and I use the 'Rectangle Select Tool' to select an area of an image, then use the 'Bucket Fill Tool' to fill the selected area with a color, everything works fine.
However, if I add a new layer (using all default values), make sure the new layer is the active layer, then use the 'Rectangle Select Tool', and 'Bucket Fill Tool', the selected area does not fill with the color. I'm using GIMP 2.10 on Windows 10.
Am I missing a step?

  Linear histogram very low visibility
Posted by: maboleth - 02-21-2020, 10:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi guys, is it possible to make linear histogram more visible? Because as it is, for larger images, I cannot use it at all, but logarithmic only. Am I missing something here?

  no working Mono Mixer
Posted by: denzjos - 02-21-2020, 10:41 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I just have no working 'Mono Mixer' (Colours / Desaturate / Mono Mixer) on my PC with windows 10 / gimp 2.10.14. / picture RGB. A few minutes ago it was working. I restarted Gimp, no working Mono Mixer. I restarted the computer, no working mono mixer.

Any suggestions ?  Thanks in advance.

I've used CCleaner to clean the windows 10 register and the disk cleaner, restarted the computer and the 'Mono Mixer' is working again. Solved.
