shaving a face

[Paul Ashton]

Any good mechanism/filter to remove facial hair :-) ?

I was trying the colour map, turning stubble colour to skin, but
not with much success. Anyone got a good tip?

If you wan't to automate it as much as possible, try selective gaussian blur. If you 
wan't to 
play around with it, go for the clone tool...

Impossible to move the layer

[COUTIER Eric]

Hello everybody,

I've noted that the original layer is impossible to move. When you click on
the layer in the layers window, the "bottom" and "top" arrow are grayed
(even if you've created another layer in the image after). The only way i've
found to can move this layer is to duplicate it then delete it. The same
thing occur in Paint Shop Pro but when you rename the original layer (for
example from "background" to "toto layer"), then you can move this layer.
Perhaps it's a good idea, no ?

Try it with the gimp.  It works last time I tried.

Ok here is what i think your source of confusion is.
The "background" layer is always just that. 

I.e. when you create 1 new layer you cannot move it under the
background layer. 
However if you create 2 new layers "layer 1" and "layer 2"
respectively. You can move "layer 2" under "layer 1", 
or put another way... you could move "layer 1" over "layer 2"
but you cannot put either layer under the background layer ;)

hi there

you have to add an alpha channel (layer - add alpha channel) to the basic
layer in order to change its position.

Gimp-1.1.28 Dies Unexpectedly

[Jeff Trefftzs]

Hi, all.

I just tried installing the latest gimp (1.1.28).  The configure
and make appeared to work just fine, but when I try to run the 
gimp I get the following error message:

LibGimp-ERROR **: could not find handler for message: 12
aborting...
app/gimp terminated: Aborted

followed by

[jeff@thoth gimp-1.1.27]$ 
** WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read: unexpected EOF

Can anyone tell me what this means, and what I should do about 
it?

Note that the gimp starts loading properly, the splash screen 
comes up,
the progress bar shows loading all the goodies, the toolbox and 
layers
window get realized, and then it all vanishes with the errors 
above.

I'm running a RedHat 6.1, upgraded with Helix-Gnome 1.2 back in 
June.
Recently upgraded to Perl-5.6.

The gimp-1.1.23 tarball still compiles, installs, and works 
fine, but both
1.1.28 and 1.1.27 give me the error above.

Anybody have any ideas what I'm missing?  Or how to track down 
the problem?

Thanks,
--Jeff
