Photo effects to mimic MS Word
#3
I agree with Ofnuts about reflections. Very dependent on the image.

Quote:Applying the refection to photos through GIMP takes a little too long, instead have opted for the 'shadow' effect as in the tutorial below.

Does it? Wink take too long It is a matter of practice, but not difficult.
------------------
EDIT: Even easier a script (I know there are scripts / plugins but struggled to remember this one)
http://www.gimphelp.org/effects_reflection.html
(the instructions are old, put the script in C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\scripts The menu entry is top of the main window - Script-Fu )
-------------------

Something like this

   

And a video to demonstrate:  https://youtu.be/mK6PZnVUztc  5 and a half minutes, so without the commentary maybe 3 or 4 minutes.

File size too large? When exporting as a jpeg, tick the show preview option, that also gives an estimate of file size.
