I need a VERY elementary tutorial (GIMP version 3.0.4) with basic steps.... 

I'm putting text in a waving banner....

.....or maybe not that easy - a slight change in the docs.

   

hey folks, first post for me ^^. i am having issues with loading python plugins.
i have downloaded ofnuts plugins ofn-interleave-layers and ofn-export-layers. neither of them show up in gimp. the weird part is that 2 python plugins that i wrote myself do load properly. 

i have checked and the ofn plugins are executable. the paths are as described here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp3-t...s/general/ (in the proper flatpak path ~var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/config/GIMP/3.0/plug-ins)

i have tried finding out what is happening by running gimp from the terminal with

In the new GIMP 3.0.6 the shift Q hard round brush cursor is almost invisible.   What can I do to make it visible enough to see well?

Any fix that works would do fine, but also there is a refinement that would help a great deal.

I found that when separating transparent background from object, my visualizing the positional edge and of the perfectly round cursor of the right diameter increased my ability to judge the w/b painting clicks with treat imp;rovment.  

The flaw in the display is that the image I am working from is anti-aliased and the stair stepped brush perimeter is badly mismatched because the perimeter of the circle should be a smooth circle rather than a stair step approximation in order to exactly judge the placing of the paint.  In my current application of the paint, I have adjusted the parameters so that the exact tangent of the paint brush circle belongs exactly at the visualized edge conceptually defined by the anti-aliased pixels. 

If I had a smooth circular tagent parameter of the brush displayed when I work, I could place the brush so well that it would give me  an absolutely perfect result.

.....for ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04 Mint 21 / 22 and users who want to keep their Gimp 2.10

On my cloud storage, about 93 MB

Comes with resynthesizer heal selection / heal transparency and gimp_gmic_qt  version 3.6.2 installed.  Remember for gmic QT5 is required.

The usual guarantee, there is none, I have tried out on the above (k)ubuntu / Mint versions and it works. Python is a bit old.  If you find it does not work, easy,  delete and use the gimp.org appimage (but no resynth / gmic for that at the moment.)

What of the future ?  I think the next release might be Gimp 3.2 and users should try a permanent installation if available from say, a PPA.  Then find a Gimp 2.10 appimage for those old but useful plugins. That is what I am planning.  Future releases of ubuntu / Mint are going to be Gimp 3 anyway.

Hello!
Is there a platform where I can get ready-made shapes for GIMP? Example: triangle, star, irregular shapes.

Question. I am using Gimp version 3.0.0-RC2. A couple of days ago I used the Path tool to curve some text. It took some work – but I finally got fairly decent results. On the other hand, now when I create a new layer, the name of the curved text appears as the ‘layer attribute’ for every image. It doesn’t really have much effect, I don’t think, it can be changed – but it’s a little odd. Hope someone has a solution to resolve this. For your consideration – I thank you.

Hello everyone!

I have a request to manipulate a frontal image of a female face. The image originated from another image taken from a very old black and white photo with many flaws. Using Gemini's artificial intelligence, I managed to restore the flaws and colorize the image. Then, I did some processing in GIMP, using Curves and Dodge & Burst. It turns out that the character's eyebrows are very different sizes, and I was asked to make them the same size. I thought of doing the following:
1. Select the left eyebrow
2. Create a layer with this eyebrow
3. Invert horizontally
4. Replace the right one with this one.
I don't know if this will work, so if anyone has experience or any suggestions on how to solve this problem, I would appreciate it.

"Hello everyone!

I have a question: if I create a transparent layer, apply a gradient to it, and then select another tool (like the Move tool), can I still edit that same gradient later? Or do I need to create a new one from scratch?

Thanks
