Hi! I'm making a browser game, with simple graphics drawn in the GIMP. and hit a problem with the GIMP fill tool.

Imagine I have a black circle (in outline, on white). I use the fill tool to fill the circle with red. When the fill tool finds an off-white pixel, it either fills it totally or not at all, depending on the threshold setting. So the red either eats into the outline (only the purest black pixels remain, looking narrow and jagged) or leaves a white-ish outline.

Is there any way to fill the circle so that off-white pixels are tinted instead or replaced? So that the red fades into black? I know the best solution is not to create the image that way in the first place. But I am editing existing images. I wish I could just click "fill" and have a nice result. Any suggestions?

3 hours of unsuccessfully trying to load a font - what sounds like a simple task - has single-handedly lead me to make an account here.

I have a custom .ttf that I made and that I've updated and re-installed C:\Windows\Fonts several times, but Gimp's font list only shows a super out-of-date build of the .ttf and I can't figure out for the life of me how to make it recognize the existence of the new version.

I've tried fiddling with the Preferences dialog and adding C:\Windows\Fonts to the Preferences > Folders > Fonts list and then refreshing the font list.

I've tried copy-pasting the .ttf from C:\Windows\Fonts into C:\Users\Arcaeca\.gimp-2.8\fonts (also specified in Preferences).

I've tried completely wiping the fontconfig caches at C:\Users\Arcaeca\AppData\Local\fontconfig\cache and restarting Gimp.

I've tried rebuilding the font cache with this .bat file.

I've even tried a hard reinstall of Gimp.

And I cannot for the life of me get this new version to show up in the font list in Gimp. It still has the old version, which isn't even installed on the system anymore.


To be clear, MS Word can use the new font just fine, as can Paint (kind of), but I tried downloading Inkscape as well to see if it could circumvent the problem but also can't access the new version of the font for some reason. Is there some other font cache I just can't find?

How. How can I force Gimp to realize there's been an update?

Running 2.8.22 on Windows 10, if it helps.

So, I love gimp, been using it for 6 years and I love using custom fonts I download.

The only time I use the downloaded fonts are for gimp. When I download the fonts, I install by going to control panel > personalisation > fonts. This means all my other programs get these custom fonts (like in Microsoft word or powerpoint) which is annoying.

How can I install fonts that are only seen and used on on GIMP, not my entire computer.

Windows 8.1
Gimp 2.8

I was just thinking to apply inside a python filter a change in the color temperature of an image, as it can be done interactively, but I didn't see any pdb interface for this function.
Questions: 
-is it there and I simply didn't find it?
-if not, is there a simple routine to copy from someone else who did it? (in "simple" standard gimp python)
Thanks for any info

I've been trying to find a solution for a while. Whenever I install GIMP, and then go to the Create tab, the option to create things like Logos doesn't appear.
I've tried installing both setup versions, Googling for the scripts, poking around the Plug-in and Procedure Browser. I've installed GIMP before and had the option available. I tried installing it onto Linux and the options were there, but not Windows.
There might be something simple I'm missing but I don't know what (I've even looked at the Help section)

A little help would be smack noice

I have taken some pictures and am noticing now that the sun has made a pretty heavy entrance into the images on important parts. Like faces, bodies, etc. I'm looking to see if anyone can suggest an "easy" fix which I'm sure isn't easy. But every tutorial I have kind of found is for an old version of Gimp. I would love to be able to do mass adjustments, but if the solution needs to be done image by image I will be fine also. I'm even up for someone else messing around with it because my eyes have been looking at them for so long I feel crazy! Any help would seriously be greatly appreciated!


Thanks!

I'm attaching an example image!

Is there a way in gimp or other that give me the possibility to edit a PSD file without using and graphic editor and without human interaction ?


For example:

I have a psd file. I want to be able to do this only with a script:

• open psd file
  
  
• find a specific layer
  
  
• replace this layer with a new layer. The new layer is obtained from a specific image
  
  
• save the new psd documents
  
  
• export the result to pdf file
  

Help please Newbie ( me ). I need to save file with extensions JPEG or PNG so i can upload to Facebook, How can I do this ?

I have Gimp 2.10

I want to convert an image to an icon.

I did that alright with some other tools - online web thing.

But I need an icon of <6KB  and the web thing produced something around 30KB.

I need <6 KB and < 90 x 90 px

So I took to Gimp to do something about it but I've finished up getting lost.



I export as .ico after doing the theme thing etc and I got a 768KB file.

Probably this is quick, easy simple task.  I need to ask for help.

Can someone set me straight here please - how to change my .jpg photo file to a an .ico file after selecting a portion of it?  AND have that ico file be less than 10KB ?

I went to Colors->Curves

I created a color curves preset....and exported that preset to a file. 

Now if I open an image, and apply that color->curves with the preset, and export the PNG file out. The image is properly saved with the color curves correction applied.

If I go to
File-> Batch Image Manipulation
Add the Manipulation set,
Color Correction
Check off : "Change Color Corrections From Settings File"
and pick my Color curves preset I saved....

After the batch process, the images I batch processed, the ones exported and saved out to a separate directory, are all whited out images.....
