How would you recreate this colorful 3D extrusion in Gimp ?

Here's my take

An error pops up when I try to save or export a new pixel art creation. I've tried to save and export in multiple user folders, but it didn't work.

Hey i use gimp quite often and i hate it has not the correct bluring calculation.
there should be a new blur style that would be colour correct.

please check minutephysics video, they explain so good.

Recently, I've been having troubles with GIMP.
I've used the program for upwards of about 1-2 years now, and this issue just appeared.
To start, I run Windows 10 (and have since it came out). I used the 2nd newest major version of gimp (white theme by default) but just recently updated to 2.10 (dark theme by default).

I can open up gimp and it will work perfectly; until I do literally ANYTHING (create a new image, apply an effect, open a menu, etc...)
When I was using the older version of GIMP, this would only sometimes happen, and only when I saved or exported an image. Now, this happens 100% of the time.

I did some research; it looks like the solution, if any, can be different for everyone. Any help would be appreciated! 

This is what I've tried so far:
-Restarting laptop (no duh...)
-Updating GIMP ( 2.x => 2.10)
-Uninstalling & installing GIMP
-Increasing priority in Task Manager

Nothing seems to work.

If you have a solution to this problem or are experiencing the same thing, please let me know ASAP.

Thank you.

Hey all,

I've recently downloaded the latest version of GIMP (2.10) since I've used the program before and have a new project I need it for. My device I've installed it on runs on windows 8.1 pro. The export function are not working. The steps I follow it are as follows. 

1. File > Export as
2. Select the desired destination 
3. Choose my file format (in my case *.tif, *.tiff)
4. Export

After this it's like my pop up window freezes. I cannot click anything else on the window and the only way I can close the window is by pressing the red x in the top right. There is no other window that pops up giving me further export options.  

Can someone please help.

I can't seem to find *anywhere* how to make editable vertical text fields. I keep an archive of templates that have vertical text fields that have to be updated with each use (example: a book cover or DVD cover template will have a vertical text field for the spine title). the options I find all end up with a rasterized layer rather than an editable text field. HELP!!

I want to use gimp full-time & ditch photoshop, but until I can figure out this problem, I'm stuck with photoshop.

Thank You,

This is a remake of a video from 4 years ago demonstrating the gmic interactive foreground filter.

Really easy to use, generally gives good results first time, sometimes a little erasing or cloning touch-up required.

Goes to sleep (black screen) on me if I look away for a minute or go for a walk. Wasn't doing it a week ago. I have changed power options to never and back to 60 mins etc. Watched a couple of YouTube vids, done a hack and it is still doing it.
I went to the windows page but you have to register there to ask a question!

I think my pc updated again a couple days ago because when I went to shut it down I only had the option of 'update and shut down' so I put it on hibernate. (I figure it updated during the day while on hibernate because the option is not there any more).

Someone mentioned to stop windows from forcing updates on you. How do I do that?


Any way I assume it is my OS that is the problem not my computer?

I've found several ways to export GIMP layers as a multipage PDF, but have been unsuccessful finding info on how to export my visible layers to a single page layered PDF. I know it's possible as I've received PDF files of an image that is layered, such as for print processing markers like dielines and etc. 


Is GIMP capable of doing this function?

I am trying to scale something to a specific size (X pixels by X pixels).

I've been using gimp for years and only yesterday upgraded to the latest stable 2.10 version, and a lot of things are different, so sorry for the "newbie" question even though I'm not new to gimp. What I am used to is that when you select the scale tool and click on the object/layer you want to scale, a pop-up dialog opens, with options such as lock aspect ratio, but most importantly a box where you can type specifically how many pixels high or wide you want to scale the selected object to.

In the new version I'm using, there is nothing like this and no pop up whatsoever. The only options under the toolbox are to lock aspect (shift) which does not help me. I need to scale it to a specific number of pixels, and I cannot do this by dragging and guessing, it's impossible.

Please could someone tell me how I do this in the new version. Example, I need the object selected to be exactly 800 pixels in width. How do I scale it to this specific width. I can't figure it out in this new interface at all.
