I know PS can use macros (collections of keystrokes/events) maybe these are incorporated into the PS template to size and deform your image to the required shape. In addition PS uses adjustment/effect layers, often incorporated in PS templates. Gimp does not use any of those. You might be able to use part of a PS template and scale / transform tools manually on your image, to fit in. More trouble than it is worth. Better to create your own. Here is a video example, sort of 'billboard' https://youtu.be/g0qX90S6_70 I used a plugin there but regular Perspective Transform works equally well. At **lot** more hands-on than PS -- rich2005 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
