Not sure what your question is? If you’re looking for photography tools that are Free/Open Source Software perhaps try joining us at https://pixls.us? There’s even a couple of great projects that are focused on fill based techniques for processing.

[Gimp-user] Hello!
I have a life long interest in photography. The Ilford Manual of Photography and the books by Ansel Adams and his zone system set my standards for documentation. I program in Scheme (and C when I have too). GIMP models the photographic process more or less well depending upon the quality of it's documentation. That said I am particularly interested in the mathematical underpinnings of your "Digital photography improvements". Perhaps y'all can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

[Gimp-user] Hello any advice welcome
Hello we are trying to create a similar image as above with our own stock images. Any advice best way to create something like this? Using a background? Placing our images on to it?

Beware: The tool set and workflow in GIMP and Photoshop are different enough to make the transition from one to the other a major challenge, at least in my experience. A few years ago somebody gave me a copy of Photoshop. Initially I discovered that I could not get it to do several very basic and necessary things, so I resolved to try harder: I found tutorials and manuals and resolved to use nothing else to edit photos for one month, as a real test drive. Two weeks later, I uninstalled Photoshop - not because "it sucks," obviously it does not if one is used to it. But I found that it just wasn't worth the effort of retraining to use it. If you are at a 'beginner' skill level in Photoshop, getting used to the GIMP probably won't be very hard. But if you have been using Photoshop long enough for its tools and workflow to have become ingrained habits, expect non-stop annoyance, at best, when starting out with the GIMP: "It should do this, but it does that instead, argh!" I think it would be worth the effort, your mileage may vary. Some basic educational resources for new GIMP users: https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-tutorial-quickies.html Lots of tutorials and general inspiration, issue 1 has a very excellent list of online resources for GIMP students: http://gimpmagazine.org/category/magazines/ My own tutorial, which presents some basic information and shows the configuration tweaks I use to set up the GIMP for daily use: http://pilobilus.net/gimp_tutorial.html You already found the tech support department - that's us kids on the GIMP User list.

Re: [Gimp-user] Hello
As a long time Photoshop user, I have to agree. One thing you'll discover fairly quickly, I think, is the way GIMP handles brushes. I've been using GIMP for over a year, and the brushes palette still causes occasional consternation. But it's absolutely worth it. I liked PS, thought it a good program, but I wouldn't have it back if it was free. I also recommend The Book of Gimp by Lecarme and Delvare. Saved me a lot of pulled hair—and I'm bald. =^D Ross On Feb 13, 2016, at 3:55 AM, Steve Kinney wrote: > On 02/12/2016 09:32 PM, Robin Reed wrote: > >> I joined this list because my Mac wouldn't open Gimp because it wasn't from >> the Apple Store.

Hello all! I'm fairly new to GIMP and even after reading the user manual, it stills seems to be written for someone with a Ph.D. What I'm trying to do is to take a scanned hand drawn picture and trace over it to make a brand new image that's cleaner and delete the scanned image from the whole thing so that only the new, GIMP drawing is there. Remember, I need this to be in layman's terms, please. I'm doing a google search to find some tutorials that are easier to follow than the manual while I wait for a reply. Thanks!

Boudi ___ The actual 'drawing' part is not quite as easy as it looks from a glance, but the general steps are: 1 - Open your scanned image in GIMP. 2 - Select Add New Layer from the Layers menu. The New Layer dialog pops up, the only thing to check here is that the layer is initialized to Transparent. 3 - If you aren't already, ensure that the new layer is the one selected in the Layers dialog. 4 - Draw away! 5 - There are two ways to 'remove' the old layer when you're done: First, you can simply hide it (click the eye icon in the layers dialog), which keeps it as part of the open image (in case you need it later) or you can right-click its entry in the layers list and select Delete layer. 6 - Save and/or export the result as desired.

Try righting on the image Select Colors Then select Threshold and see if you can adjust out the clutter. Alternatively try Image-Colors-Curves and see if adjustment there will clean it up for you Lastly, try converting the image to indexed, Image-mode-Indexed and set the number of colors to 2 You can keep your scanned image, once you clean it out, save it as an xcf so you can do more work on it, then if you want a png or jpg, just export it, File-Export to that format/file type -- Owen ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
