Bryan Livingston of CoolText.com used to be the maintainer of this package, but i'm not sure if he still is. net-fu contains a bunch of modified script-fu scripts (interactive stuff removed, output saved to file), and a couple of CGI's. One CGI dynamically generates forms to get the script parameters (text, colors, font, fontsize, etc) and another submits "jobs" to the script-fu server plug-in running inside a GIMP that is started in batch mode. -Dave -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- www.flamingtext.com -- Real-time Graphics Generator -- It's fast + it's FREE! * Headings * Buttons * Arrows* Backgrounds * Animations* Bullets * Dividers * Wallpaper * Clipart * Mouseover Effects * E-Mail Signatures
Re:Online Graphic Creation with GIMP?
Well, I've never played with this but I think there are some tutorials on the Gimp site that explain using Gimp for automatic processing of images, combining that with cgi should give you what you want. Sorry I can't be of more help, you can't share knowledge you don't have :( Lourens

Re: Patches to 1.2.0 for --with-included-gettext and HP-UX 11.00
In regard to: Patches to 1.2.0 for --with-included-gettext and HP-UX 11.00,...: >3. Fix for AM_WITH_NLS on Solaris The patch for this problem is needed for more than just Solaris. I've reported this particular problem on gimp-developer and elsewhere a couple times, and although it's really a problem with gettext 0.10.35, it's spread into virtually every package that uses gettext. I haven't tried your patch yet, but I think it's better than the one I have been using and have posted here and elsewhere. It looks like yours handles cacheing appropriately, whereas mine did not. I would encourage you to submit this patch directly to the gettext maintainer(s), as it really needs to go in there too.

Problem solved. Mea culpa. It wasn't that flame would be sensitive to the random number generator's deeper statistical properties, but it did require that it returns non-negative values. I had set RAND_FUNC as g_random_int in GIMP's config.h, without thinking. The random() or lrand48() functions that normally are used on Unix both return a non-negative integer. g_random_int(), however, can return any integer. Having RAND_FUNC returning nagtive values half of the time probably can cause all kind of strange behaviour in plug-ins that use it. When I changed the definition of RAND_FUNC to: #define RAND_FUNC() g_random_int_range (0, G_MAXINT) and recompiled the flame plug-in, it behaves just like on Unix. Recompiled plug-ins that use RAND_FUNC are available in www.gimp.org/win32/updates-rand-func-plug-ins.zip. Put them in GIMP's plug-ins directory. --tml
Online Graphic Creation with GIMP?
I am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I would like to play around with letting users create graphics on line via a web form and GIMP. Is there any tutorial out there to get me started? Thanks in advanced, Ed _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

New Plugins
Now that we have the new gimp 1.2.0 out, we should think about adding new plugins to the gimp. Here my proposal: 1. Stable plugins: Anti-Alias 0.8.1 Fixer Homogenizer logconv-1.2.1 mathmap-0.12 (make seamless in 0.11 works correctly in the Linux version, but in the windows version, the picture turns red) raw_load-3.0 resynthesizer-0.6 2. Unstable plugins gimp-ace: We should take the code from cvs not version 0.6.3. The cvs version removes some problems at light and dark places, but has some problems in the dialog in the gtk part. Also the configure doesn't run with gimp 1.2.0. gimp-freetype-0.2: Still some seg faults. fourier 3. Not yet adopted to the new gimp, but stable in the old version: quant.c from gimp-unstable-plugins from the old 1.0.4. gimp. ipx-plugins kaleidoskope 4. Scripts: lcd-downscale.scm warp-sharp.pl warp-sharp.scm
