Editing DALL-E Images in ChatGPT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJirMpbvBrM

Hello, I would like to know if there is something in Gimp that comes close to what is seen in the shoot screens below (taken from a PS tutorial video)

       

Got a broken picture to show, its a bit misaligned but its got alot of potential, I just need a bit of time to stuff it up a bit longer then I'll have all these powerful images to show.
As a thumbnail its really good at tricking you a really awesome picture is there,  and I know what to do to fix it up.


   


And heres another one I did of Humpty Dumpty. (the aftermath.)

   


So they are missing a bit of definition, but the cool thing is I can do them pretty quickly,  so I'm looking extend the idea into some fairly long books where unless u can do 'em fast theres no point, then maybe ill be getting closer to the niche for it.  Even tho ai art has pretty much shooken things a fair bit, so its just for fun in the aftermath of mans furious invention.

Ok Folks - I landed in this forum searching on how to thicken a font.

I got that done... but I also need to Outline the font.

There in lies my problem.

I've thickened the fonts (grow X px)... but when I go to outline that grown font in a different color - its not working (it reverts back to thin font).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Getting the following Crash Debug message when closing GIMP. Tried resetting to original settings, also removed ConFig file and loaded latest version of GIMP. Still get the Debug. Anyone know how to trouble shoot this? GIMP runs normally except for this message.
Thanks, Bry...

I saw an older post where there was no solution for this.  My mouse size as set by windows is fairly large, but GIMP resizes it on my proart 17" laptop screen to a very small size and I literally need to use a magnifier to see the +/- symbols when using various tools.

Wondering if any consideration has been given to allowing a resize for this?   I am using 2.10.36.

thank you

Test is here: https://susam.net/myrgb.html  (only 16 levels per channel) No cheating allowed 

Heres a tutorial I put together,   if u want to make art like me, its kinda fun and quick.

octagonal design - spiral design  and a re-purposed one

   

I've done a couple of installs now and have enjoyed using Debian 12 'Bookworm' so far. Stable is not the newest deb collection but I run the latest versions of Gimp and Firefox as AppImages so I don't care

What I found? Debian puts-up a little ring fence to scare-off newbies but once past that you have the freest, most versatile system imaginable.

To get a lean and mean system decide what window manager you want first. I came from Xubuntu so I'm used to XFCE. I installed Gnome first and it looks like a mobile phone so 2nd install was just XFCE4.

Early on you see this: 'user is not in the sudoers file'
The solution is this:
#su -
#adduser user sudo                                                                 note. 'su -" is an actual command

I came across an easy way to update. Add this to a .bashrc
