-- David M. hmm, you could try Getting an image of actual lips (Google search) cut out everything but the lips; rotate the image(if you need to) Filter>blur>blur Colors>colorize(adjust to get a Really Bright red) image>transform>Flip Horz... (to make it look like lips were pressed against a surface) Filter>blur>blur (optional* you don't have to, only if you have a really Hi REs image) now go to Filters>enhance>sharpen and use a big number like 78, but not to big now duplicate the layer with the lips and now click on the farthest down(lowest) layer then go to colors>Desaturate and click "lightest" and "ok" now click on the "top layer" (heights up) click the "drop down box" next to mode grain merge; then hit Ctrl+M to merge all visible layers; click "expand as nessasary" and "merge" And that's it! Done! ready to paste on a mirror or note or what ever(I watch too much tv) Whell that the best I can do; I have been using gimp for less than a year; so may someone else can make it look better. Have A Nice day! the one I made: http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/7868/81253049.jpg _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
