Greetings,

I created an animation GIF which has 500 frames.It is taking too long to unoptimize and use interleave layer plugin. Even after waiting to complete the plugin execution, When trying to save it, GIMP freezes with message "not responding".

I have enough space on my disk to save the file. The final file size is about 1.5 GB.

Any pointers on how to improve the performance would be helpful.

Hey, y'all. So, from this video game box art case cover, I have to copy the word "Trilogy" and paste it. Then I should rename "Remastered" as well. So that way, the same texts and colors I wanna keep them like that is to type it for myself. Do you know how to get into it?

Moving layers comes up frequently with beginners so a very quick look some options.

Moving layers from one image to another
1. click-n-drag
2. copy and paste

Move that new layer around the canvas 
3. A floating layer is just another layer.
4. The Move tool.
5. Anchor a layer or make a new layer

Moving a text layer
6. Use the move tool
7. Use Ctrl-Alt with the active text tool.

For some reason I can't post in Gimp 2.10 forum... ? 

I make a new layer. I add an image.
It stays as a 'floating layer' or something.
I can't move it!!
I somehow, after clicking like, mad turn it into a layer.
Sometimes, I can now move it. Other times... I can't!!
What am I doing wrong???

Text layer: I make a new text layer.
Now... I can't move it.
There seems to be some other empty box that gets moved when I use the move tool.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

To speed up opening, I'd like to delete some plugins. I probably don't need all of them. But which to delete?

Does anyone know of a general guide to GIMP plugins? I mean a list of all or most plugins, with information as to what each one does, which ones are essential and which optional, and so on?

I am running Gimp 2.10 on a Windows 10 system.  I have completed two graphics project with great success.  In the middle of my third project, the brush/eraser stopped functioning.  All of the brush, pencil and eraser options freeze up after a short time.  After about a 1/4” or so into drawing a line, it stops. Sometimes it will let me continue after some time.  Other times it won’t.  Other functions of Gimp seem to work alright.  The frustrating thing is that it was working fine. It doesn’t matter if it is a new project or editing an old one.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All, 
I'm looking for advice on resizing  images. I have used the scale tool to resize them individually, but find it quite time consuming and at times a bit trial and error.

I post pictures on a modeling site, and they need to be below 3mb, but not too small or they are not quality enough to be viewed properly, and the site system bitches at you continually that you have  images that are too small.. 

Firstly, on an individual basis using the scale tool, is there a way to determine the finished size of the image in MB? As all images vary in their starting size, i never know how much to reduce them by so find myself reducing a bit, saving, checking, then repeating as much as possible trying to get them to as close under 3mb as i can - that's time consuming lol

Secondly, is there a way to batch resize images in GIMP?
