Ideally, to do something realistic, you would use Filters > Map > Map object and map you logo to a cylinder. The very har part is figuring out the cylinder to map to...
If your logo is amenable to a path, there may be a much easier solution.
Edit > Preferences > Folders > Plug-ins. Inside the plug-ins folder, I navigate to .config/GIMP/2.10/plugins and paste the .py file there. After restarting GIMP, where can I find the plugin?
I am using script fu, so I don't know if I can use this plugin[
My guess is you have a linux Gimp 2.10 that does not support python 2.7 Is there a Python-Fu entry in the Filters menu? Which linux are you using? There might be usable alternatives that come with their own python, a flatpak or an appimage maybe.
Quote:Let's say I want to place an image, like Pikachu, on a cylinder. When I tried, only half of the image was visible. Is there a specific width and height I should use to fit it properly on the cylinder?Or could there be another problem I caused?
Try making the logo layer the same size as the canvas Layer -> Layer to Image size.
And for map I have 2 more questions
1-When I use only the map object and scale the image larger than the mug, it sits above the mug instead of curving inward.(first image)
2-Can I change the shape of my border? For example, if the arc of the upper border is curving upwards, can I make it curve downwards without using the curve bend tool?(second image)
