Quote:Is it possible to duplicate this process in GIMP; and, if so, how ?
Starting at the end, Anything is possible, maybe not the same procedure as PS, and Gimp does not have a "macro" feature and writing a script-fu script or python plugin is not easy (regardless of what the Gimp developers say about script-fu)
Quote:I may drag the Background layer of some photos on top of others while looking at all of them in tiles.
Background layer in your context ? Is it a PSD file ? You can open several files in Gimp, but in single window mode They are not tiled. You can get all showing at once Windows menu -> Single-Window Mode toggle off. Not a nice stack of layers you might get in PS, you can drag and drop from image to image using the layers dock (or copy and paste)
This sequence quick examples: copy-paste - single window mode - multi-window mode https://i.imgur.com/osTo2MR.mp4
Quote:Then, I have a one-click batch process that duplicates the stamped-visible layer, adds High Pass Sharpen with Soft Light Mode and a layer mask, and then adds a Stamp-Visible layer on top of that.
First, what is a stamp-visible layer ? Sounds to me like a copy, need more information. High Pass Sharpen adds a new problem for a plugin. It is a GEGL function and not (easily) scriptable. Very much a by-hand operation
You might look at the gmic_gimp_qt plugin http://www.gmic.eu Plenty sharpening filters, (no High-Pass) and it is possible to save a sequence of filters for use later.
Quote:Then, I have a one-click process that saves all open photos at once as PSD and saves them in a specified folder that does not change until I change it, even if the program is closed and reopened.
Then, I have another one-click process that saves them all as jpeg and saves them in a different specified folder.
Nothing I know of that exports all open images as PSD but there is one for jpeg see:
