Re: [Gimp-user] (no subject)

2017-01-28 Thread Paula Koval
Good Saturday or Sunday, as it may be!  Thank you, Ofnuts, for reminding me
about taking the image from disk.  Duh!

You gave me the link to an excellent tutorial on YouTube that taught me the
title page process but the video is no longer available, or so says YouTube.

I have looked at three other tutorials on YouTube for placing text on top
of a gif image.  All of them move too fast for me.  I cannot understand how
they get the image to break into its layers on the right-hand side of the
Gimp work area.  Not knowing that or how to change the size of the layer
images to "gigantic," as advised by one tutorial, I find it harder to
access that knowledge.

Please point me in a useful direction.

Many thanks and have a pleasant Sunday!

Paula

Re: [Gimp-user] Image quality decrease

It's kind of hard to guess what you might be referring to. Any samples or
more details about exactly what is going on?

[Gimp-user] Image quality decrease

2017-01-28 Thread ginglederf
I did a quick search and couldn't find anything.

I have a high resolution/ quality image I want to edit, but when I open it in
gimp the image quality decreases quite a bit. How can I solve this? Thank you
for your time.

[Gimp-user] Help With OSX El Capitan

2017-01-28 Thread JaketheSpike
I'm using El Capitan (10.11.6) and it takes 3 minutes for GIMP to load my fonts
when I open the program for the first time AFTER THE COMPUTER HAS BEEN SHUT
DOWN. Quiting GIMP and then re-opening it thereafter takes just seconds to get
up and running.

I have 316 fonts installed and have disabled half of them in Font Book. This
makes them unavailable in all my apps – except GIMP! I don't understand this but
I'm not too bothered.

Did you install the xsane package, which includes the gimp plugin?

If you copy/paste, probably, but you can save the image to disk and then 
open it in Gimp and that will work.
