 Hello,

   I've seen on the web that you can create 3D anaglyph images from
 a regular 2D image. I can only find sites that can create them for
 you, at a cost. Can someone point me to or tell me how I can do
 this myself?

I don't know of an easy way to do this, but I think if you want to really get 
into 3D you should definately try blender (www.blender.org).
You can taste a piece of that in http://www.blenderwars.com/

[Gimp-user] missing pixels

2005-02-07 Thread Geoffrey
I have been working with selecting sections of a photo so as to remove 
the background.  Although it appears that I have selected the whole 
portion of the image, when I paste it to new, I see missing pixels.  Is 
this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Point is, if I've missed some pixels, they should show up as not 
selected right?

Gimp 2.0.4
I've dropped the two images here if you would like to check them out. 
Note the missing pixels on the second image, (primarily on her legs and 
arms).

it would be easier to see the problem with the xcf saved with the
selection you used.

it is recommended that you work at 400% view so that you can see if
there are problems like this.

another thing to do is to save the selection as a layer in your xcf so
you can fix any pixels problems like this, whether it is a problem with
the selection technique or with gimp.

the image demonstrates a problem but it is not enough to determine if it
is your technique or a gimp bug.  also, before filing a bug report, it
might be good to update your gimp to 2.2 and see if the same problem
exists there.

I looked at it at even a greater % and still could not see any pixels 
that were not in the selection.

Well, I used the clone tool to fix it up, but I'm still thinking there's 
a problem with GIMP.

[Gimp-user] Trouble with layers from psd

2005-02-07 Thread Enesha Fairluck
Good evening all,
   I am having some trouble, and I hope someone out there can help 
me:)  I have a .psd template that I got from someone on the net.  I 
tried opening it in the gimp 2.0 running on mandrake 10.1 and the file 
opens, and the layers are there, but on the layers panel, the layers are 
all represented as like a grey box / checker pattern, and I cannot edit 
any of the text in the layers.

   I was able to successfully open the file with Photoshop 8CS on 
windows xp running in a virtual machine, and edit the text in the 
layers.  PS did say something about updating when I opened the file, so 
I even tried saving a copy of the file after the update, but it still 
behaves badly in gimp.  Am I perhaps loading something wrong?  Could I 
change some export settings in PS to make it more gimp friendly?  Or am 
I just SOL?  heh.  I could work on it in PS via the virtual machine, but 
I really prefer to keep windows shutdown and use my unix tools instead.

Thanks in advance for your help:)

well, unfortunately you are sol and will need to use your viral windows
machine.

there are differences between the native photoshop files and the native
gimp files.  gimp can handle different sized layers and other things.

gimp cannot read psd text information as editable, it reads it only as a
painted layer; at least to the best of my knowledge.

it would be nice if everyone would stop making psd files since not
everyone can use psd.

i looked at this.  you could see with quickmask that there were some
half alpha areas.  i am not sure how you made the selections still, but
i was able to fairly simply convert the selection to a path and back
again (i did some feathering in between my steps) and the problem went
away.

it would be someone elses call whether it is a bug or not.

there are still ways to use the selection -- converting it to a path
worked for me.  the weird half selected areas were somewhat obvious with
quickmask toggled.

 is your technique or a gimp bug.  also, before filing a bug report, it

if they would fix the file selector, it would be darn near perfect; as
far as i am concerned.

 Evening, and thanks for the reply:)
 
 Well that isn't the best of news I'll grant you:) Is there no way to 
 convert the psd to something that gimp could import in that way?
 
i am tempted to say definately not so that someone would show me to be
wrong soon, so Definately not!.
