Oh - sorry - I just saw this e-mail now. Put th e;py file in a GIMP plug-ins folder (on Linux it is /home/<user>/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins), for example, Check a suitable folder in edit->preferences->folders->plug-ins On Linux after putting the file on such a folder, you have to make it executable (chmod a+x, <file> or right_click and preferences, mark as executable with a graphical file manager). GIMP needs to be restarted to find the plug-in. > > J > > By the way, is there a way to not have to type in the 'challenge' every time I > want to post in this forum?
