[Gimp-user] About Pointillism / Pointillist Effect

2009-01-28 Thread J Figueroa G
I have one question about a filter, plugin or script that can make a similar
effect like THIS
IMAGEhttp://www.muylinux.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/linus-y-gnome-1.jpg

I can say that this is an Pointillist Effect, but the newspaper filter
effect can't make.

I hope that you can give me one answer or guide steps.

TY.

At a very first glance, I see that this is an
indexed image with a color depth of just 1-bit.
This effect can be achieved by dithering
the image.

One (quick) way to do it would be:

1.) Convert the image to greyscale.
2.) Optimize it (remove background etc.)
3. Increase the contrast as much as possible,
without losing the details you would like to
keep.
4.) Convert the image from greyscale to indexed
with 2 colors (black and white). Set the options
'Use a black and white (1-bit) palette' and
'Dithering  Color Dithering  Floyd-Steinberg
(reduced color bleeding)'.

You may not get all the subtle details included in
your example (this 'copperplate engraving' effect),
but at least that's a start. Maybe there is some
plug-in for the Gimp available.

HTH,

Claus

Here I made a mistake. The more shades of grey
you have in the original image, the better the
dithering (- more details).

 I just tried out what Claus suggested on this picture of Dennis Ritchie 
 (attached).
 
 1. Image  Mode  Grayscale
 2. Colors  Brightness-Contrast (Brightness=127, Contrast=35)
 3. Image  Mode  Indexed (Generate optimum pallette, Maximum number of 
 colors=2)
 4. Opened up the Colormap tab on the Layers, Channels,... toolbox 
 (color0=00, color1=ff)
 
 and I ended up with the other attached image that almost looks like the 
 Linus Torvalds image you attached.

I tried this myself and came up with something similar,
but the dithering in the Linus Torvalds image is
much subtler. My guess is that this was achieved
by using a plug-in (Photoshop?). I couldn't find
anything similar (at least during a quick search)
on the Gimp plug-ins site, at http://registry.gimp.org/.
Maybe someone else can find anything.

[Gimp-user] ICC profiles

2009-01-28 Thread Claus Cyrny
Hi,

I'm looking for ICC profiles for a) a Kodak Easyshare Z8612 IS
 b) a Scaleoview X192 monitor by Fujitsu Siemens, to use them
with the Gimp 2.4.7. I really couldn't find anything on the Kodak
site (both at kodak.de  kodak.com), or on the Fujitsu Siemens site.
Does anyone possibly know where I can obtain/download those profiles?
(Regarding the monitor profile I posted in the Fujitsu Siemens user
forum, so maybe I'll be getting an answer there. At the moment, the
most important profile is the one for the camera.)

TIA,

Claus

Usually at the same place you found GIMP itself, which usually depends on your 
operating system.

Wherever you downloaded the Gimp itself. :)  If you installed a binary
package, there should be a help package nearby.

For Ubuntu Linux, sudo apt-get install gimp-help-en will get the
English version of the help.
