Seems like someone has set up a local news server, which is reinjecting
the messages.

The user account has been identified, notified and is currently suspended.

Re: [Gimp-user] Certification plans

I concur with Steve Kinney that Scribus and Inkscape are also valuable tools 
to be adroit in, for the reasons he mentioned.

We should also mentioned Scribus, the major Free Software desktop
publishing application.  IMO a GIMP user certification program should
include a unit on using Scribus:  Unless an image is intended for use on
a website or in a word processor document, page layout and export to a
print ready file format (normally PDF) is the necessary final stage of
image production, even if only to test color rendering and make "contact
sheet" indexes of finished images.  Scribus is very simple and easy to
use, although as with any tool it takes a little tinkering and getting
used to.

I should also mention Inkscape, the major Free Software vector graphics
editor.  Applications for vector graphic formats include offset
printing, posters and signage, and any context where really precise
manipulation of text (font) content or line drawings is needed.  Vector
format image content scales to any size with no loss of resolution,
hence the name of the SVG "scalable vector graphic" file format.  Image
content that is frequently reused in many contexts, i.e. company logos,
should be designed as vector graphics to begin with; otherwise, it will
be necessary to re-create them as such sooner or later.  Inkscape can
export vector images to PNG, JPG, EPS, etc.

This online program offers a "certificate of completion" that makes it
the closest thing to Inkscape user certification I found in a quick web
search:

http://www.trainingcenter.com/inkscape

Anyone who can only edit raster graphics (i.e. GIMP) or vector graphics
(i.e. Inkscape) is only half a general purpose graphics production worker.

Hi Rich,

thank you so much for the clear and concise information you supplied to me, I
really appreciate the time and effort involved.

It's been grandson weekend and with four of them, i did not get a chance to
implement your suggestions, but will do soon.

I have upgraded to 2.8.22, so thank you for that.

Once again, thanks for all your efforts 


Regards

Reinstalling Gimp is a Windows solution, usually pointless.

It is most likely a problem in your Gimp profile ~./gimp-2.8

Rename that to disable it, say, ~./gimp-bak Start Gimp to make a new default
profile.

It is a bit strange, position and size are 0,0 and 0,0 Did you try setting a
size manually, just as a test?

Also do not discount a hardware problem, a duff mouse recently the cause of the
crop tool behaving strangely, reported on another forum.

Re: [Gimp-user] Certification plans

[mikolaskova]

Thank you for your answers. I'm asking because the question showd up in our
project- 
the people are used to let themselves certify in order to increase job
chances in case of changing working place.

The question was: if we switch to GIMP- how can we guaratnee our employees
they get experienced in a usefull field.
(my general answer is: somebody able to use GIMP for image editing will be
able to use other ... software, same as people skilled in this other...
software can switch to GIMP without major problems; there is an increasing
market for people able to work with GIMP etc...)
I know, these questions sound strange somehow but for some institutions it's
essential.

And: both kinds of certification would be useful: certified GIMP trainer and
certified GIMP user(?) 

It's about europe...so I will ask at ICOGRADA (I already am in contact with
the LPI)

Best regards,

Adrana
