It happened to me, see if the complied version of BIMP copied into Gimp plugins directory (should be /home/username/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins) has the 'execute' permission enabled. Thanks for the reply. By habit I typed sudo make install. It copied the binary to the wrong location. make install did the trick. I am not getting it to apply the droste effect.

[Gimp-user] GIMP 2.8.0 WIN32 - Very Slow
Just installed GIMP 2.8.0 win32, it seems very slow when editing images, for example if I use the spray brush the cursor moves but the tool 'circle' does not move or lags behind. The change in the image also lags behind the cursor. My system: Dell Vostro 1520, Intel 2 Duo CPU p8700 2.53GHz 4gb 32bit (Vista). Had been using 2.7.(not sure if it was .4) no problems. I have increased title cache to 3gb but no change ? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

That's what I do and it has come in very handy. -Why not add (to Gimp) the possibility to maintain an autosave copy in (.XCF format) each N minutes? And not delete it for X days? I would not use that. For instance, just a couple of minutes ago I opened an XCF file, merged several layers for convenient export of some image elements to another XCF file, and closed the file without saving. If an autosave hit in the middle of that, it would commit this strictly temporary state to my source file, wiping out layers I need to keep if I closed the file - or somebody tripped over the power cord - before reverting the changes. As 'GSR' also commented there are quite a few ways to avoid this problem. The autosave could save a copy with the same name in a temp directory, or add hashes (#yourfile.xcf#) or any other idea. -Why not make the Undo buffer for the last N edited images persistent for X days? Disk space is generally not an issue. That's an interesting idea. Over the years I have heard a lot people wishing out loud that they could undo changes in a saved image after closing out. Still though, there have been times when I had to repeatedly flush the undo buffer when using an older/slower machine to work on big files - a day's work could add up to gigabytes of saved buffer in some instances... No doubt. Not unlike the cache of a browser... It's scary how much info gets saved in a machine, mostly never to be used again. But still, gigabytes are getting cheaper by the minute.

[Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior
Count me on this. The previous behavior of Save/Save As was just fine. Save As did exactly what Export is doing now, without giving me grief over me format choice. Reason around it and praise the change as the holy frail if you want, it's still retarded and makes no sense. Save As doesn't overwrite the existing image, so there is no reason for the program to force this silly assed Export function on me or anyone else. Avoiding accidental overwrite using Save is avoided with a quick are you sure? dialog. Pushing this whole new system feels like training wheels to me. Assuming I'm not smart enough to not goof my own work. Nevermind the preview function is apparently broken in the Export dialog. I went to save a small image as jpg in it, and it tells me the resulting file will be 1.3GB in size. In reality it ends up 193KB. 2.6 didn't have these issues. 2.6 worked in a fashion that made sense. Maybe I'll just go back to 2.6. :-/ -- Red ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
