Hey Guys.

I've done a lot of research these days in forums and in Redbubble guideline pages, checked all my Export Options as well as size and file size, and every time I upload a File Exported in Gimp, the uploader in Redbubble gives me an error message saying that "What format is that file? We can't identify this image". Redbubble supports Png files, which is what I'm uploading.

I went through all the things mentioned in the "Uploader Trouble" article in Redbubblle (use another Browser, adding uploading.redbubble.com to any trusted or safe lists in my antivirus) and none worked.

When I upload the same image exported from Photoshop CS2 it uploads with no errors.

If I upload my exports from Photoshop CS2 instead from Gimp it cuts my resolution by one third.

Is there a known issue uploading files exported from Gimp to Redbubble?  Should I check any other option in settings?

Any pointer in this matter is appreciated.

As the title suggests, I'm having trouble with the selection tools. I'm extremely new to GIMP, but I am proficient in Photoshop, so the shift has been interesting. 

Basically, when I try to select something (with the fuzzy selection or select by color), it doesn't select. I'm selecting on the correct layer, but the marching ants don't appear unless I hold down the mouse, and then as soon as I let it go, the selection goes away. It's not retaining the selection, no matter what I do. Any tips? Could this be because I'm on a Mac? 

Apologies if this is an easy fix. I'm new. Thanks in advance!

Hello.
Just recently updated my Ubuntu system to 18.04 and with that came repository changes and GiMP 2.10.8. And sorry to say, I have complaints.

First, every time I click on Foreground Color to get the color picker, I have to always switch from "0..100" to "0..255". The setting just won't stick, and I haven't found any options to make that permanent.

Second, when I load an image that is 24-bit RGB or 32-bit RGBA (0.255 integer per byte and not 32-bit Floating Point Color Profile) and want to see the value of the color, I always get a decimal point, even in the "0..255" (R:134.9), and I haven't found any options to change that.

At least, I have looked through the Preferences and Menu options, and while I see something labeled precision, nothing seemed to help.

For years when I pasted something as a new layer it went into my image neatly in the upper left-hand corner. I upgraded to a 2.10.6 and now I can't figure out how to paste a new layer in that corner; it either goes into the middle or into the original position. Any advice as to how can I get my new layers happily lined up in the top left when I add them to the image?

Hi,

Can you help me try to immulate this "info" chart.

What is the easiest way to insert numbers/letters surrounded by squares or circles (depending on the score according to par the golfer makes (Bogey = square, birdie = circle)

Hello,

Long time Gimp user on windows. Lately switched to mac.

Downloaded version 2.10.8 dmg.
After succesful install, I get a message saying "can't be opened because identity of developer cannot be confirmed" when the icon is executed.

I am on latest osx version 'Mojave'. The security feature is set to "install from everywhere" and have succefully installed apps from 'everywhere'.

Don't know if this is an issue with the way that the installer is set-up or what  

Greetings everyone,

Many find the solution working.But i can't find Multi Layer Merge extension anywhere on the web.Does anyone have the extension?Could you please share it with me?

I am using Windows 8,GIMP 2.10.8.

Absolutely first time poster, but figured I'd go to the community with this because I haven't found anything Gimp related to cause this.

In the folder above, I've got about 20 files ranging from a couple that are empty, to a handful that are around 12MB in size, but half of them are around 500mb in size. My assumption is that these were times that gimp crashed and created a temporary backup, but the weird thing is that they never cleared out.

I've got 4GB of data sitting in there and just wanna make sure my assumptions are correct before I purge them.

Help appreciated in advance.

In PS if you have bottom layer with some shape let's say rectangle, and you create top layer with clipping mask, everything you paint in top layer can't go outside that rectangle in bottom shape.

How to do that in GIMP?

Hi, I have been trying to get Resynthesizer to work in GIMP 2.10.8 all day. I have reinstalled GIMP. It was originally an update from 2.8 where the heal selection tool worked great. I installed the new GIMP and installed the 64 bit windows versions of resynthsizer.exe and resynthesizer.gui along with the plugin-heal-selection.py. However, I get the error

Calling error for procedure 'gimp-procedural-db-proc-info':

Procedure 'plug-in-resynthesizer' not found

with the details

raceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\32\lib\gimp\2.0\python/gimpfu.py", line 740, in response
    dialog.res = run_script(params)

error: procedure not found

I do still have the 2.8 file in my profile but renamed it 2.8  old. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
