You can do pretty much of what's done there though in different ways as mentioned on the page that Tim gave. As to why the BG copy 2 layer in your page is bw, I best quote that page itself: the top layer (Background copy) shows where we did a simple 'remove colour' and have de-selected the 'eye' so as to hide this layer. The coloured seem to be effectively desaturated with one of the adjustment layers. Thank you very much indeed. Now I can forget all about the approach I thought I would look at and concentrate on those ways I know best - the methods suggested and demonstrated by Ralph Steinort. Rolf please! ;-) I think this is basically the same thing that you can do with the channel mixer. In the top adjustment layer they do a crude desaturation by simply removing it. You can do that in Gimp by adding a layer filled with black and setting the mode to saturation. I don't get what the lower layer does. I'll ask a friend an d report back. Perhaps there is something interesting in it. Rolf ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Nothing interesting. I just talked to John Arnold from http://photowalkthrough.com/ (worth to look into even for Gimp users). He told me that this is an old method and has less control than the channel mixer. The lower layer just rotates the colours. That leads to a different luminosity and so to different monochrome output. Rolf ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

On Tue, 2008-03-18 at 15:33 +, norman wrote: I feel sure that you must be correct. I have never seen any noticeable fringing or CA effects with my ordinary photography it is only with this project I set myself of copying a lot of old colour transparencies. In the old days I used to often feel frustrated at not being able to do a great deal with colour slides such as I did in my darkroom with black and white film. Thus, I saw this as chance to catch up on history and at the same time, maybe, produce some interesting images digitally. It now looks as though I shall be frustrated yet again. Norman I think your camera is OK, the problem is your close up filter that you use for enlarging the slides. These things are prone to CA. You can get away with a lens made out of two glasses (called achromatic and being expensive), but most of these things are made out of a single glass and mess up the colours. I never have heard about an apochromatic lens to put in front of a point and shoot. You can try to use your camera without this lens in macro mode and crop the image later in GIMP. With luck there is enough resolution left.

No idea what exactly IDimage is doing but it probably needs to be updated for GIMP 2.4 then. Or perhaps IDimage can call gimp-remote instead of gimp? If that doesn't work one could make gimp a link to gimp-remote. As far as I know it behaves like gimp when no other instance of GIMP is running.
