I am using portable phone only to phone and shoot photos, nothing more because my bad eyes don't like the little screens and bad keyboards. Until now I did use a very old portable phone for old peoples with big keys, cam but very little screen. It was possible to connect it directly with linux per USB cable and use it as memory card reader, a very comfortable way also to accede to the photos or files. But the back wall of the battery was part of the box of the phone. In the last time, it was not possible to continue to use that "phonausor" because of any power of the battery was loose and no way to find a new fresh one... As in Germany where I live, (old) new tablets with android 10..12 are offered very cheap, I did buy one small one as phone and a 10" tablet (with high resolution screen) one as my future tool to process photos, picture and maps.

So I am dependent from tablets (it is completely new for me) or laptop screens to do the rest.

But the first problem for me is to transmit the shoot photos to large 10" tablett alt. to my old linux laptop (it is preferable as I actually discover and not really know the android app's and tools).

I did connect an USB cable. Nothing to do: no communication turned on or turned off (the old portable phone did have to be turned off to be only some kind of memory card reader!).

I did find at "akp pure" in android (as I prefer to avoid the services from google) 2 "gimp-s". a small one and a very large one (not very good for the portable phone tablet having a small memory capacity).

The commands of the small gimp (for the phone! For the large tablet 10" I will in the future install the big "gimp" for android, of course!) are totally different from those in linux, and not evident! For ex. save the actual stage of the transformation of the original photo (as a different doc to don't alter the original, of cours!). No Alt-S ... But the app claims to save. And no save function (preserving or not) in the very small menu!

What would be the best succession of commands to make out the large original photos very little ones to, for ex., publish in forum threads etc.?

How to transmit the photos from Android to Linux (of course each on a separate tablet/PC)?

Is there no handbook for android app's, espec. for gimp mini or gimp full for Android?

Hi I need to know how to put a circular border in black around a image to enable it to be cut out with scissors. The image must be perfectly centred with the border.

Can i edit the text which is already done and rotated and moved? Or once a text is done it can no longer be edited?

Edit: I just found out, we can. I just press the text tool again when i am on that  layer. (Couldn't delete my question so writing solution instead)

Usually the 'color to alpha' or the fuzzy select tool work, but sometimes I cannot use those because of the similar values to the object and background, is there a tool I am missing?


As you can see the fuzzy select tool bleeds into the object Im trying to cut out.

Glitch art takes temporary pixelations, interruptions and glitches and turns them into visually arresting pieces, questioning the forms and traditions of art using digital techniques.

It is easy to correct or change the colours from a set of pictures with LUT's.
What are LUT's or 'lookup tables', some information: https://nofilmschool.com/what-is-a-LUT
Free LUT's, one of the many free sites to download LUT's  : https://freshluts.com (register and download or post)
Can one make LUT's? Yes, with G'Mic-Qt. 
- load a picture and make a layer copy
- make a new layer and correct or change the colors in the layer copy
- use G'Mic-Qt / Colors / CLUT from After - Before Layers
- set the 'Output Mode': Save CLUT as cube or pngFile (use cube)
- fill in 'Output Folder' (make a folder where you put all your 'cube' files) 
- fill in 'Output Name'  (a name that clarified what the LUT does - better for later use)
- click on the 'OK' button
The LUT can now be used for other pictures.
- load a picture
- G'Mic-Qt / Colors / Apply External CLUT
- choose the 'HaldCLUT Filename (folder where you saved the cube file)
- done
Example (I used a LUT I made before from another corrected photo)

I know this should be simple however I am new to gimp and struggling a bit.

Quiet simply I want to print 2 images of 106mm square on one piece of a4 .instead of printing one image per page and wasting loads of paper.

I can print one easily but when I try to move 1 image to the left to make space for the other one along side it  it splits from it's canvas.and part of it disappears

Do I need to make the canvas a4 size ?  

Thanks in advance John aka Clueless

Using a Wacom 16 tablet under Windows 10(64 bit), in Gimp 2.10.38

I just installed the program today, and while it looks very useful, the tablet interface is... less than stellar.


I was able to go into the Input Devices menu and watched a couple of YouTube videos, but it just does not work.  It sees he tablet, and i can use it to point, but not to paint.

For one thing, the Dynamics are OFF, and I have no idea how to turn them on, r if that is necessary, or what they do.

And if I want to use a brush on the screen, well, I can do that with the mouse, but the pen only points, and if I try to paint, I get a kind of rectangle, with squares at its corners, instead of, well, drawing/painting.

I admit to being new with the program, but shouldn't it paint, instead of (it looks like) designating an area?
Is... a puzzlement.


Thanks for any tips that might make this work better.
