I have two pictures. One is a huge Waldo picture, for example this one:

http://www.playbuzz.com/tarasc10/wheres-...u-find-him

The other one is a tiny little picture with Waldo, it was cut from that large picture and saved as an individual pic. Can I somehow feed GIMP with both pictures, instead of searching for the little Waldo picture with my eyes for hours? Gimp should kind of tell me or mark the position or whatever to show me where that little pic in is in the large one.

Thanks!

Could someone help an old guy that's just beginning photo editing? I loaded Gimp 2.8 onto my Windows 10 computer for the purpose of restoring some old family photos. Before I loaded it I watched a number of tutorials on You Tube and it seemed pretty straightforward especially to do the type of repairs I need to do (remove tears, creases, blotches and etc using the clone tool and/or heal tool. After downloading Gimp and putting it in single screen mode I opened a photo that has a couple of tears and some writing on it to repair the tears and remove the writing. Before I tried any repairs I saved the picture to my desktop as a Gimp Project and then closed the original file and opened the project file. After selecting an area to work on, I clicked on the clone tool and tried using it to remove some of the writing. I first selected an area to clone using CTRL click and then clicked on some of the writing. Nothing happened! I tried it several times even closing and reopening the project but still nothing. I switched to the heal tool, repeated the procedure and still nothing. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hey everyone, I need some help with something.


I have this image here: https://s11.postimg.org/d6talfl37/banner.png

And I have this gif image here of falling snow: https://68.media.tumblr.com/642db6d043ae...o1_500.gif

I'd like to place the gif image on the static image (on the right hand side), but I want the snow to be "blending" into the background. Like, I don't want the blackness behind the snow to show, I only want the snow effect. Like how an overlay would look.

But no matter what I do, I can't get this to work. I see a lot of people being able to achieve something like this but I have yet to learn. I tried duplicating the background and overlaying the gif into each one of the backgrounds but that didn't work.

What am I supposed to do?

The occasional report on Gimp 2.9.5 features.

The Smudge tool now has a painting capability.

It first came up here as: http://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Customi...h-painting and has now been implemented.

As a non-painter the basics are

Using the new parameter flow rate = 0 the smudge tool acts as before.
Increase the flow rate and the smudge tool takes the foreground colour and blends with the underlying colour.

Comparison: Previous dialogue is on the left and smudge tool vs. paintbrush. Going to need a 4k monitor before long for tool options.



There is a bit more to than that. 
No erasing effect = 'never decrease the alpha of existing pixels' 
That gradient selection under dynamics which is also in other paint tools.

...to install another gimp onto your computer without having to remove the one you already have set up.
I want one that only has the original files in it as well. Can I do it by using a different file name for one or would I need to get a portable.
I use windows 32bit btw.
Just tried to do a custom installation for a new one but it just updated the one I have already.

I want a plain one as well.

I try to use this script : http://registry.gimp.org/node/27601
Some gif files is not allow by this script. 
Any idea how to fix that ?

I added an Attachment because I don't know the name of it. so you can see what I'm talking about. I clicked something and now this bar showing my image in a small box at the top is making my work space smaller. : Need it to be gone.

I'm running OS 10.6.8, and using GIMP 2.8.16.

In attempting to export a file with a transparency background I get getting the file with a white alpha channel background that I can't delete or clear. Is there any way I can export just the image with a transparent background without the white? The original projects begin with transparency backgrounds and all the layers have transparency alpha channels.

Also, my Eraser works intermittently. I'm having to use selection tools and Edit>Clear instead. This works but can be time-consuming. Any suggestions on fixes?

Thank you so much for your help.

Cheers!

More an exercise with Gimp 2.9.5 than anything else.

A nice Victorian pavilion and bowling green but scaled down from original jpeg to 33%

Used the quote: LoHalo method: when you downscale an image thats less than a half of the original size

To be honest, I can not see any improvement over the old Sinc(Lanczos3) algorithm.

Comes to sharpening before exporting, the new UnSharp mask tool is nice, you can split the screen to compare before and after before applying. Still ended up with gmic-for-2.9 and the sharpen(texture) filter.
