Hi! I'm new to GIMP and I'm trying to achieve this neon light effect as if neon light is shining on to someone in a dark room like in this movie poster I attached. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Bonjour,
Je viens de télécharger Gimp en tant que débutant à ce logiciel, j'ai déjà un problème, en ce sens que quand je veux ouvrir un dossier jpg ou Gimp m'indique qu'il ne traite pas ce genre de dossier .. . 
Votre aide serait le bien
D'avance merci.
Cordialement

Hi everyone, I have just started using GIMP 2.10 and I'm trying to send a design to POD vendor. They say to outline the font before sending it and I'm confused. I highlighted the text and selected "text to path." Now what? I see the outline if I select the path and it goes away if I deselect it. I need to export the file as PNG. Do I merge all visible layers and then export as PNG? Do I need to merge the paths also.  I have one file that I exported as PNG that shows the outline and one that doesn't. Neither of the mockups are showing the outline so I don't know which one is right or if any are right.

Can someone outline the steps to saving this file? Am I even outlining the font correctly? I've Googled and YouTube'd myself to death and can't find anything on this. Thank you for any help.

Where is this?  In preferences it claims the folder is in:
Home->.var->app->org.gimp.GIMP->config->Gimp->2.10

But I cannot open that place on my file browser.  I can as far as Home->.var->app->org.gimp.GIMP->config->Gimp
But there is no 2.10 folder.
Gimp cannot see anything that I place in there.  How in the world can I edit files like devicerc?

...but another Rocket - On exhibition.

Terrible lighting, uninspiring surroundings, but I do like the rivets.

   

Hi!

Quite some time ago someone aksed for a tool like PS "Automatically align image layers" - an 'intelligent' tool that would scale, rotate and perspective match layers, basing on their content. I coulnd't open any of the links posted in that thread:
http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5153

Is there such a script available for Windows?

I´m trying to use that Python PlugIn and it doesn´t work, maybe I´m doing something wrong or introducing wrong parameters.
I need an example to make it work.

I´m using the last version GIMP 2.10.6
pdb.file_heif_save(image, drawable, uri, raw_uri, quality, lossless)

Thanks in advance.

Is there a 2.10.6 appimage anywhere?  The latest I can find is 2.10.5.  I have issues with Flatpak:  It says I already have 2.10.6 installed, but it is 2.8, and I don't know how to remove it.  When I try to start Gimp with Flatpak it starts 2.8

first post, hope i'm in the right place and all that.

ok, i'm a GIMP n00bie, learning the ropes. i've run into a situation that i know how to handle the brute force way but i'm wondering if there isn't a more elegant approach.

i'm starting with the hex tile on the left and want it to end up looking like the tile in the middle, in other words remove a part of it to transparency. the area i want to remove looks like the blow-up on the right, if that's helpful.



needless to say i can, and did, use the eraser to do it the "hard" way. there are about 50 more to do so if there is an intelligent way to do this -- meaning something that is less meticulous and/or fewer steps -- i'd love to hear about it. any suggestions would be appreciated.

in case anyone is curious these are tiles used for fantasy mapping in an app called HexKit. the purpose here is to create tiles that can be used as overlays, here to add coastline to an arbitrary land feature as opposed to being limited to the grasslands of the original tile. the moded tiles would be for personal use, not for distribution.

Since a few weeks I use GIMP 2.10.4 and now 2.10.6. I've consulting many sites and forums concerning the plugin Resythesizer, this for using the plugin 'heal selection'. I found a youtube movie to do this : 'GIMP 2.10 Tutorial: Resynthesizer is Better Than Photoshop's Content Aware Fill'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J61ExvqNcBQ. After installing, Gimp 2.10.6 (64) start up without errors and all the menu items are found in GIMP. When I make a selection and use the 'heal selection' plugin, I get following error :  The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?. The heal selection is not done. What's wrong? Suggestions ? Thanks in advance!
