[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.3.x on Debian
I can't remember if I asked this before or not, but does anybody make any 2.3.x packages for deb? I used to compile my own these past few years on Suse w/checkinstall to stay up on development progress, but since switching to Debian earlier this year I haven't got back on board. I think I tried compiling 2.3.1 back a few months ago, but checkinstall failed to make a deb package... (going off a foggy memory). Can anyone spank me onto the straight and narrow here?

Various Script-Fu scripts included with GIMP; e.g. Alpha To Logo-->Alien Glow or similar. Simply use colour-to-alpha on the background colour or use the magic contious-region select and delete. Note, you'll need an alpha channel on your image (right-click the layer in the main image and click "Add Alpha Channel" if it's not greyed out). Also, IIRC, the script works on one layer and does various things (e.g. copies it), so if your logo + text are seperate and you want different glows, you may need to make them seperate one-layer images and then figure out how to organize and fiddle with the various layers to get the effect you want. Another idea would be, in a new layer under existing object, to take a selection of the background, invert the selection (so you're selecting the object), grow the selection, make it a colour, and then make it semitransparent (I believe a slider on the layers dialogue does this) - and then put in a background colour layer behind all that (meaning your image must have alpha... like above). -- ~Mike - Just my two cents - No man is an island, and no man is unable. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] glow around a text
Im trying to make some buttons for a web site. The buttons could be text or an small image plus text. I havent found a way to draw something like a glow around the image and text for highlighted buttons, can somebody give me an idea about this? -- Roger D.
