[Gimp-user] darkening a grey-scale drawing

2006-04-11 Thread Haines Brown
I have a simple line drawing that is in shades of light grey against a
white ground. My aim is to increase the grey scale range from 000 199
to 000 to 255. 

Grokking the Gimp suggests I should use the Threshold Tool, but this
produces unsatisfactory results. By moving the sliders I can darken
the light grey to black, but what I'm left with is just what had been
the original very darkest greys, and the lighter greys disappear. 

Am I just being clumbsy, or is there a better approach?

[Gimp-user] Does Gimp have CHOP like ImageMagick

Does Gimp have a CHOP tool similar 
to ImageMagick? Magick CHOP chops
a vertical or horizontal bar from
an image.

try using the levels tool.

does it make two or several images or does it leave a big transparent
hole in the middle of it?

the first can be accomplished with guillotine or perltine or pyslice or
i think there is a scriptfu-slice floating around.

the second can be accomplished by defining a selection and Edit/Cut.

Carol,

A single mouse drag defines the
slice. The slice disappears and
the image strips above and below
or left and right of
the slice join together as one image.

An example of use: we photograph 
visiting groups against a white 
wall with a sign several feet
above their heads. A Magick
vertical chop drops the sign 
to about one foot above their
heads. Without carefully examining
the mortar joints in the wall
I can't see the chop.

Jim

to the best of my knowledge, gimp doesn't do this; although there are
probably scripts out there that i don't know about and maybe something
like this exists.

maybe i will write one even

sorry that it is not part of a basic gimp install for you though,

[Gimp-user] David's Batch Processor

2006-04-11 Thread David Hodson

After a long break, I've put a new version of DBP up on my site at:
  http://members.ozemail.com.au/~hodsond/dbp.html
Source only at this stage, no Windows binary available.

DBP is a batch processing plugin for the Gimp, that performs a
number of common operations (rotate, blur, colour correct, resize,
crop, sharpen, rename, move, and save in new file format) on a
collection of images. It is all gui-driven, no scripting, and the
operations can be previewed on a single image before applying them
to the whole batch.

This version (1.1.2) fixes a few problems with the Sharpen control,
adds Saturation to the colour correction page, and might fix a bug
that appeared on 64 bit systems.

 My aim is to increase the grey scale range from 000 199 to 000 to 255.More specifically use levels and slide the left hand and right hand sliders in towards where your histogram starts.
