[Gimp-user] Fwd: Re: Conversion to XGA
Can I, for instance, convert a 2277x3080 pixels image to a 1024x765 (XGA) image and how should I do that? Yes, you can: http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tutorial-quickie-scale.html Is it possible to resize about 3,000 photos using the method listed in the tutorial as a batch process to 640 X 480 while also watermarking them and then make an additional image that is 100 X 100 from the watermarked 640 X 480? That's the link I need. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Another question.
Gimp 2.6.2 Mac OS X 10.5.5 I have photos to which I need to apply 2 watermarks that you guys showed me how to make transparent and I thank you for that as it was a huge step on the road to really digging into this ongoing task I've volunteered for. (Yeah, don't ever volunteer, but I've met a lot of very helpful people!) I've also been able to use applescript to allow me to standardize the size of the photos, rename them and then produce a thumb size image of each photo from the resized image while putting each into their required directories. Is there a database of script-fu programs I can look at 1.) to help learn the language, and 2.) that will allow me to automate certain stages of the placement of the 2 watermarks since each watermark will have to be placed in a different location on each photo in order to not interfere with the object of the photoin my case each photo will have a plane as the focal point.

Re: [Gimp-user] Moving text while typing it.
I thought that was just because I was using the MAC version. Actually, I find I can only move the text with the arrow keys while any use of the mouse closes the box to editing regardless of where one clicks.

It seems that on my system (Kubuntu 8.04) one must close the window labeled Gimp Text Editor in order to move the text. I don't see why you would have to close that window in order to move the text. What keeps you from moving the text if the text editor window is open? After more experimentation, I see that this is the situation: If I click the canvas outside the text field, then the Gimp Text Editor window gets focus and I cannot move the text with the keyboard (nor the mouse, because I was not clicking on the text field). If I click the canvas on the in the text field, then I can move the text field with the arrow keys, but I still cannot drag it with the mouse. GIMP in trunk already allows on-canvas text editing. This will be in GIMP 2.8. Excellent, thanks! However, the more general question stands: do the Gimp devs take kindly to feature requests regarding the usability of Gimp's tools? Or should I not even bother and waste their time? ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Making a .gif file transparent
Just beginning to use GIMP and I am baffled about how to properly transform a .gif file to make it appear transparent when I subsequently add it to a photo. Each method I have tried still has a solid image that blocks out the original photo. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Gimp-user] Making a .gif file transparent
Nathan, It's an image we created for our website to protect photos sent to us for display by watermarking them and I've tried layering and adding an alpha layer to no avail. I am clueless as to the ins and outs of imaging software and GIMP is the program we use. I've searched the tutorials to no avail.

Also, are you using a GIF image that you created or that you downloaded from somewhere?
