Ok, I've forgotten my Gimp Bugzilla password and I've requested the

and when I access that link I get 403 Forbidden errors. :(

Re: [Gimp-user] Web background
Depending on the JPEG quality threshold you specify, you might not see any change in the image itself even though the file size WILL be smaller. This is a GOOD thing to me. :) Crank the image quality down to 10% and see if you see any quality degredation. :) If you're specify quality in the 80 - 100% range, you might not readily see any differences in image quality unless you look very carefully. Good luck!

I preferred the Sani Pass trip but as the acehole who organised the trip rushed us up and down the pass as though it was a rally I managed to miss getting some good images. When life settles down, hopefully in the near future, I will organise my own trip. BTW Go to the 4x4 images on my web to see my little 4x4 at the top of the pass with it's Linux logo proudly displayed. This image BTW also appeared in the Linux Journal.:-) BTW2 All images on my webpages have received the benefit of Gimp at one stage or another, mainly to cut out background and only leave the "interesting" part of the image. --- Regards, Alf Stocktonwww.stockton.co.za "The human brain is like an enormous fish -- it is flat and slimy and has gills through which it can see." -- Monty Python ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

In fact there is a vector based infrastructure and I also believe that it is quite flexible. Simply fiddle a bit with the Path tool to get an idea how this works. Yes, it is not integrated in all the places where it should be, but it definitely is there and it definitely is quite flexible (although I am biased about that). Maybe you should look at the code before drawing conclusions like "the framework is kludge". I've put quite a lot of work into that stuff and I'd like to see at least some reasons *why* it supposedly is a cludge.

>From: Alan Horkan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Adobe Photoshop allows one to easily draw shapes (such as polygons) that >are very difficult to draw using only select+Stroke. Cinepaint has the drawing code. They took the vector drawing plugin and made it work directly within the image. The ex-plugin has a lot of room for improvements, but it is a start of something. >How many more of these articles must be written before the Gimp developers >accept that simple drawing tools are a must for a certain type of user? But maybe they are not that easy to code? Adding a vector layer to the images should be easy if the image object is good, but the vector manipulations can be difficult. Typically each plugin has its own kludge way to manipulate vector objects (selection tools, crop tool, etc). The selection tool vector drawing and the crop tool vector drawing are not visible in other views of the same image because the framework is kludge. What we need is a good old vertex/edge/polygon framework. We don't have even the simplest systems developed at 1960s.

Got this error message: /usr/lib/libgimp.so: undefined reference to `PLUG_IN_INFO' It depends how you have built gimp. Where did you built gimp-2.0? On my system, the correct library is /usr/lib/libgimp-2.0 ...

Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp-2.0.1
Hi Alf, Alf C Stockton wrote: I now, without too much trouble(thanks to a slick setup on Gimp's side) got 2.0.1 installed and running. How do I now, to save space on my notebook, remove all previous versions of gimp without breaking anything? Depending on your OS, and how you installed it, this will be different. If you installed the 1.2 series on Windows from Jernej's installer, you can uninstall it. Similarly, if you installed from a package manager in a GNU/Linux distro, you can uninstall the package. On the other hand, if you installed 1.2 from source, you can run "make uninstall" in the GIMP 1.2 source directory, and that will do the job. Alternatively, you can delete everything in a gimp/1.3 and gimp/1.2 directory, and everything in the appropriate lib directory that has libgimp*-1.3* or 1.2*. This is probably the trckiest, and really isn't advisable :) Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
