[Gimp-user] Free textures (2)

2009-02-03 Thread Claus Cyrny
Hi,

I compiled another zip archive with textures, which
contains both tileable versions of some of the textures
from the first archive, plus some additional ones.
In the meantime, I included a README file and licensed
all of the textures under a Creative Commons license:

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/de/

The new archive can be found at

http://home.arcor.de/ccyrny/downloads/textures_02.zip

Sorry to be ignorant, but how does one include these files in Gimp's textures?

under Linux, there's a hidden subdirectory 
$HOME/.gimp-[version]/patterns. If you save
the textures there with the extension .pat
(after opening them in the Gimp), they should
be available as Gimp textures (you would
have to restart the Gimp first).

Under Windows (I'm not familiar with MacOS), there
should be a directory with the same name (most
likely [Drive]:\Program Files\gimp-[version]\patterns.

You can see which folders are relevant for your system in the preferences:

Thanks very much Claus, I am indeed under Linux so this is fine.

[Gimp-user] Free textures

2009-02-02 Thread Claus Cyrny
Hi all,

after reading the last post in the 'Golden Text'
thread, I came up with a number of textures myself.
I packed the in a zip archive, and anyone here on
the list is free to download them for personal use.

I'm actually not sure if those textures tile; an
attempt to perform the 'Tile...' option in the Gimp
didn't give good results, so I left them as they are.
I really enjoyed making those textures, and I think
the quality is really good.

Sample:

http://home.arcor.de/ccyrny/downloads/tiles_samples.jpg

zip archive:

  http://home.arcor.de/ccyrny/downloads/textures.zip

The archive contains both preview images (120x120,
as JPEG's), as well as the textures themselves as
.xcf  files (400x400).

Hope you like them,

Claus

Claus,

Hi there.  That's much better.  Both of those are fine.

Sorry, the file got corrupted somehow. I'm using Ubuntu's
archive manager, and it seems that there's a problem
with zip files. I now created a tar.gz archive. I'm
not sure if utlilites such as WinZip support this,
but currently I have no other option. (I could also
try .jar, which I never used before).

So, the new URL is

WinZip does support tar.gz
JAR is just a zip file with some extra metadata
I would be _shocked_ if you couldn't just zip this yourself.  It isn't
hard, if you want maximum compression...

Sure doesn't work on my system, unzipping resulted in a bunch of error
messages and only two files.

alligator_skin.xcf  wood_03_th.jpg

I could display the jpg, but the gimp (2.6.4 on fedora10) would not
open the xcf file.

The texture look nice, though.  Let us know when the archive is fixed.

Cheers,

The files should contain an statement regarding the usage and
distribution. Currently, distribution by anyone else then you is
disallowed under many jurisdictions, and derived works will be
complicated from a legal point of view.
