Yes, Gimp is free open-source software, with no strings attached. You
can do whatever you want with it, including resell it.

Re: [Gimp-user] How to highlight regions of an image

[Guy Stalnaker via gimp-user-list]

David,

The technique appears to rely on GIMP's Layers. That's where the the mode
in question will be. So, where is that? Here is an image of the main GIMP
screen (Windows install) with arrows pointing to the Layers "dock" -
usually by default on the right side of the GIMP layout - and the Mode
selection dropdown menu:

[image: image.png]

A mode does nothing on a single layer. They require a minimum of two. The
selected mode performs (yes, really) a mathematical calculation pixel by
pixel between the two layers with the result of the calculation what you
see. Here's a screen shot with a new white layer added, and the Mode menu
activated with arrows showing where Multiply is:

[image: image.png]

Modes are very useful. And frankly knowing the calculation performed is
less useful than simply playing with them to see what happens when various
modes are selected. Here are links for some web pages that explain modes
you may find useful (don't worry if the website talks about Photoshop, etc.
because blending modes are somewhat uniform across applications):

And how do I do that?  I notice that when I click on the highlighted
region, the decorations I see on the region alternate every other click.
Otherwise, I see no indication how I can select particular layers.

[Guy Stalnaker via gimp-user-list]

P.S. One potential issue -- make sure in the Layers Dock that you have 
the correct layer selected! Think the first layer is the "base" layer, 
and the one with the selection your second layer. The Multiply mode must 
be done to the second layer.

It's the 14th entry in the layer mode.

Open the Layers dialogue:

At the very top of the dialogue is "ModeMormal"

Click anywhere on that whole Mode  Normal control and you'll see a list

David,

The image did not post (at least I do not see it here or on the 
archives. If you'll resent to me personally, I'll take a look for you. 
My post with the images I attached made it to you, but also did not make 
it to the archive (the images are too large I suppose).


Also, what is the URL for the "other page?"

Thanks.

[Gimp-user] How to highlight regions of an image

[David Karr via gimp-user-list]

(Hopefully this isn't a duplicate.  I tried to post this a few minutes ago
a different way, and I think it failed.)

I am a gimp newbie. I don't use it often enough. I'm trying to do something
that I'm certain many people have asked about in the past, but I can't find
this described in a current FAQ.

I found the current page: https://gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php?t=49 , but it
doesn't appear to be up to date with the latest gimp version (which I
installed a few minutes ago).  For instance, after copying the foreground
color onto the selection, it talks about setting a "Multiply" layers mode.
I don't see anything like that in the current interface.

What is the current guidance for doing something simple like this?

[Gimp-user] How to tell if OpenCL is active and how to disable it?

[Nafspa via gimp-user-list]

Hi.

I now had my notebook two times freezing already when editing images in 
GIMP. The UI of the whole OS got unresponsive all of a sudden and only 
turning off and on the machine made it work again. I am not sure if this 
is in fact an issue with GIMP or it only happened by coincidence.


My notebook is a T495 with a Ryzen 3500U with integrated graphics card 
and Ubuntu 21.04. GIMP is installed in version 2.10.22 (installed from 
the Ubuntu software repository).

Doing some research on the web I found that there is supposed to be an 
option to enable/disable OpenCL in the preferences. But in my version I 
cannot find this under Preferences>System Resources.


So how can I tell if OpenCL is used and if so, how can I disable it, so 
that I can check whether this issue happening is really related to GIMP?


Thank you in advance

Creating your own theme is possible.

Here's an example of the mid-grey theme I created for myself: 
https://imgur.com/a/Zs3m8uZ
you're welcome to a copy of it.

I've modified one of the supplied themes, mostly separating out the colour 
definitions to make it easier to modify, although several of the UI elements 
are defined by images which need to be mangled manually.

There are lots of ways. The easiest first step is to use the
Hue-Saturation dialog (or Hue-Chroma, if you prefer) and drag the
sliders around, especially the Hue slider.

If that doesn't do what you want, another way is:

- make a new layer on top of your image

- fill that layer with a solid color (now you'll only see the color,
   but your pattern is still there underneath)

- In the Mode menu in the Layers dialog, go through the whole list
   one by one, setting the mode on the solid-color layer and seeing
   the effect on the image. (Hint: once you've clicked on the Mode
   menu once, it has focus and you can cycle rapidly through the
   modes by pressing the down- arrow key).

Of course, the top layer doesn't have to be a solid color. You can
paint different colors on it corresponding to different parts of
your base image, so the same layer mode will turn different parts
of the image different colors. You can get all kinds of surprising
and interesting effects depending on how the top color combines with
the bottom color in different layer modes.

Akkana;

Thanks for the quick response! That first method sounds like 
exactly what I want to do. The second one sounds interesting 
also. I think I'll try that for some other things I am 
considering!


Many Thanks!

Escape generally aborts, Return/Enter commits.

Fuzzy select is a bit special here (probably not for a good reason), for
other tools you really need to use return to apply the current state.

hello again, i have another question with (i hope) an easy answer.
i cannot find a keyboard method for ending a tool application. here is the
detail:

when i use fuzzy select, and then use brightness/contrast tool, when i'm
zoomed in and the image fills the screen, i have to re-select the fuzzy
tool and zoom back out to click on the part of the screen with no image in
order to end the fuzzy tool application. is there a keyboard shortcut to
end a tool application?

We got it and heard you.  The easist way to do it is the use linux.

There might be someone who compiles on WIndows, but MS removed all the
compilers from its commericial OS and explaining how to install an
entire compiler and make environment on a stripped down commerical
windows box is a long and drawn out discussion.

i knew the process had to be simple, but i simply could not find anything in the

especially the tip about 'fit canvas to layers'.

The Hugin suggestion is a bit of overkill. All sorts of ways with Gimp and the
resize canvas is one way.

Even easier:

Open the two images as layers - It is better if the largest is opened first but
not necessary.

Click and drag either one of the layers into position. Outside the canvas it
shows as an outline, do not be fooled by that, it is ok.

Use Image menu -> Fit canvas to layers

Re: [Gimp-user] how to combine 2 images

[Robin Simmons]

The easiest way is to install Hugin where you can use the panorama creation 
utility to detect the common points and stitch automatically.  Note that 
stitching two scans is somewhat different from rotating a camera for panoramic 
shots, so best to read the tutorial.

Hi.

I'm trying to do some internalization / localization of a plugin of mine,

Right now, I have the following tree :
 ── plug-ins
    ├── my_plugin.pot
    ├── my_plugin.py
    └── locales
    └── fr-FR
    └── LC_MESSAGES
    └── dctrad-import_text_on_path.po

And I marked the strings I want to translate with _() in my .py file

Questions :
Do I need .mo files ?
In my .py file, what do I do after import gettext ??

Thank you all

I tried the script as follows.
I could get the selection's position and size!
Thanks again.
But the Python script only runs on GIMP 2.10.12 but GIMP.2.10.12
So I use it with downgraded GIMP because the script is very useful for me.

I will try it when new GIMP comes out
Thank you

Re: [Gimp-user] How to get the positions(x, y) (width, depth) of selected rectangle or selected ellipse

[Ofnuts]

If you register your script properly, the Image will be in the function
arguments when the script is called from the menu,
no need to read it out from the title bar.

Also, you can avoid a lot of back-slashing by either:

- Using "raw" notation for string literals:

    file_name = r'c:\Users\YourName\Documents\Temp\SampleXcfCsv.txt'

- Using triple quoting:

file_name='''c:\Users\YourName\Documents\Temp\SampleXcfCsv.txt'''

- Using forward slashes, that work just as well (the Windows API
understands both types, it's just the command-prompt parser
that insists on backslashes):

file_name="c:/Users/YourName/Documents/Temp/SampleXcfCsv.txt"

[Gimp-user] How to get the positions(x, y) (width, depth) of selected rectangle or selected ellipse

[tamasakai]

Shiro Yuki -san, 
Thanks a lot.
As you mentioned, I am a Japanese.
I asked the same question on Yahoo! Chie-bukuro but there was no good answer.
Then  I signed up here.
I will learn Python more to achieve my job according to your advice.
Thank you very much.

I am jast a biginner of GIMP.
So please tell me step by step with patience.

Then, I wrote a script, made a image named "sample.xcf" and made a rectangle
selection on it.
The script on Python Consol made errors.

Correct. But you can approach them one ata time - rectangle select is

Uh? You can write to a file from the script, using the regular I/O
functions.

For more structured data you can also use the built-in CSV module to
write CSV files, and it is also possible to add excel support to the
python runtime.

See, 'gimp-selection-bounds' at Procedure Browser.
But, handning values to external App is not so easy.
If you add external library 'pyperclip' you can write to clipboard.
But it is one value only... Yes, maybe, not suit for you.
One solution is that create text layer about that.
Then you can copy manually.

On Python console, this is what you want.
non_empty, x1, y1, x2, y2 = pdb.gimp_selection_bounds(image)
See, 'gimp-selection-bounds' at Procedure Browser.
But, handning values to external App is not so easy.
If you add external library 'pyperclip' you can write to clipboard.
But it is one value only... Yes, maybe, not suit for you.
One solution is that create text layer about that.

Lamb Design.

This is standard behavior. There is no "object selector" tool, object
selection is a side effect of the Move tool, that will pick the topmost
non-transparent layer where you click. But since there are many cases
where one of the topmost layers covers the whole canvas and is at least
partially opaque, this method is not always usable. You can always
select objects by clicking on them in the Layers list.

[Gimp-user] How to shrink selection while deforming rest of image?

[sprotz]

How do I scale down or shrink a selection in Gimp 2.10 while stretching or
deforming the rest of the image to fill the gap where selection used to be? When
I just use the scale selection tool, the selection is cut from the image and a
background filled hole remains where the selection was. That's not what I want.
I want to deform and warp the areas surrounding the selection as I scale it
down. I need something similar to warp transform tool but using a selection
instead of a brush.

OK, I figured one thing out how to re-add the dotted line...
1. I selected the rectangle select tool.  
2. I drew a rectangle around a section of the dotted line that remained.
3. I did a Copy.
4. I drew another rectangle around an area where I wanted the dotted rectangle,
again using the rectangle select tool.
5. I did a Paste. 
6. I adjusted the placement slightly.

This seemed to work.  Although I'm not sure this is the "best practice."

and use it to overwrite another area of the image.  But I just can't remember
what term or vocabulary or terminology to use to search for that feature.

Ah, thank you, Michael.  By "several" I mean about 6 or 7 files... no big deal. 
In most of the files there is only 1 red rectangle.

One thing I forgot to ask... In another image I have (I attached a screen grab
of part of the PDF), there is a dashed or dotted line in the original JPEG.  I
would like to "recover" the dashed line upon removal of the red rectangle that
was drawn "above" it; that is, upon removing the red rectangle I would like the
result to show the dashed line as if the red rectangle was never added.

How would I do this?  I'm not sure how I would use the technique you suggested
for this case.

Finally, what format do you suggest using other than JPEG?

Trying a very non-complex approach:

Use the color picker tool to pick up the background color, then use the
paint brush with an appropriately sized brush to paint over the rectangle.

For that image, the method above is quite fast, except for the area
around the h in Cheers.

The text in the screenshots shows some sub-pixel hinting artifacts, for
better screenshots it might be wise to turn subpixel hinting off before
taking them, or make sure this is done by grayscale pixels only.

You should specify how many images your "several are", and how many
annotations your are going to remove from each on average.

Also, avoid JPEG for anything but the final exports - using this format
introduces artifacts around every edge, and will complicate your task
needlessly.

[Gimp-user] How to replace foreground with background pixels

[rhimbo]

Hello all,

I've tried watching some YouTube tutorials to figure out my problem, and I've
also done some searching but can't quite figure out how to accomplish my goal. 
I'm a novice still and part of my problem is that I'm not well-versed in
graphics concepts, so I think I'm not comprehending some of the explanations.

I have several images which are just screen grabs or PDFs.  For example, the one
attached is from a PDF which contains annotations (red rectangle).  I can import
the PDF as a JPEG, that's no problem.

I'm trying to remove the red rectangle and in its place just have the
"background" that was there before the red rectangle was added.

If someone could just point me in the right direction... a tutorial, part of the
user's guide, whatever, I'm happy to go dive in.

Some of the YouTube tutorials showed adding layers, turning the image to gray
scale or black-and-white, reversing foreground and background, etc.  My head was
spinning.  They went kinda fast for a novie.

One of these days I'm going to start from the very beginning and learn this
great tool from the perspective of concepts and formal immersion into the
graphics world.

Many thanks in advance...

Your image will only have about 1 million pixels, so that might be a bit
hard to achieve.

Use "File>Open as layers" to load the image over the grey background
image. This will likely be faster (and the image will be aligned to the
left).

Or when you have loaded your square image, use "Image>Canvas size", and
increase the width (you can just add "*7/5" at the end of the width,
Gimp will compute the value). Then you add a background layer.

"View>Snap to canvas edges" is also useful to align layers with the
image sides.

What I do:

1. Open image in GIMP
2. Select Image/Canvas Size
3. Enter something like width 700 and height 500 in the size boxes, and then 
click the link icon to lock the aspect ratio. Then enter the true height of 
your image in the Height box.
4. Use Offset settings or Center button to align your image on the canvas as 
required.
5. Choose Resize Layers, All layers. Choose Fill With, Background Colour (or 
whatever).
6. Click Resize.

If you want to align a layer with the edges of your canvas, or centre it on the 
canvas horizontally or vertically, take a look at the Alignment tool (it’s in 
the default toolbox, at least on my OS/X download).

[Gimp-user] How to optimize this workflow

[Scott Jacobs via gimp-user-list]

When I go to the drugstore to their self-print stations, I know
that their paper sizes are not the same ratio as my image sizes.
If I don't create special versions of my images, I know that they will
have their ends cut off.  This displeases me.

Before I go, I create special versions of the images, that have the same
aspect ratio as the print size.  I pad the smaller dimension with white
(the paper color), and center the image, since I am not
planning to cut off the padding after printing the image.  (If I were planning
to cut the print down to image size, I would make sure the image was all
the way to the left or right, so I would only need to make one cut).

How do I do this?

First, open the image, and change the zoom factor to make it a smaller 
percentage,
so there's lots of padding around the image.
Invoke Rectangle Select, click on Fixed, and enter the aspect ratio of the 
print size
as width  height (example: for 5x7 paper, enter "7:5")  If later, you 
find that
you had it backwards, just click on one of the two buttons at the right of that 
line,
and the ratio will reverse itself, without need of re-typing.
Now, click and drag anywhere to make a rectangle, of any size. Size and position
doesn't matter (other than allowing you to see if you got the ratio in the 
right order).

Now, enter the smaller of the image's width/height in the right box after 
"Size".  
(LEFT box, if image is in portrait mode).
The dimension in the other box will change to a larger amount.
(If you enter 0 in both Position boxes, you will see the rectangle bounding box 
is
the same size as your image, except in one direction, where it is larger.)
You will need this new dimension in the next step, so "copy" it to the 
clipboard.

Now, invoke Image->Canvas Size from the main menu.
Paste the new dimension into the Width box (HEIGHT box, if image is in portrait 
mode),
and press .  The preview box will enlarge in one direction.
At this point, you can either click on Center to center the image in the 
preview box,
or you can click and drag the image all the way to one end or the other of the 
preview box.
Change Resize Layers from None to All Layers (may not be necessary).
Change Fill With to any of the options you want, and then click on "Resize".

Export the image under a different name (probably something that indicates the 
print ratio.)

Done!

[Gimp-user] How to optimize this workflow

[Helmut Jarausch via gimp-user-list]

I have a dumb photo lab (which offers very good prints with a new Canon  
printer).

They offer prints of size 7in x 5in.
I have several images which are quadratic in size. Now I have to "fill"  
my image with a (say) grey area left to it.


Currently I do

I create a new image (filled with grey 868686) with the same height but  
a  width of height x 7 / 5
I copy paste my image into this new image, move the floating selection  
exactly to the left (which is quite tedious to do exactly)


Additionally I'd like to select the remaining grey area at the right to  
eventually fill it by inpainting (GMIC).

(Select by color doesn't always work)

Many thanks for some hints,
Helmut

Probably i'd select most of it, feather the selection slightly, float
it, move it upwards, then use a combination of patches and clone tool
with a large brush (or inpainting with the synthesizer plugin) to fill
in the gap. Pay attention to lightness and to shadows, and watch for
the tree in the front. Depends on teh exact effect you want.

There's no OneDrive integration in GIMP, however if you have OneDrive
installed and linked to your account, the files should appear in
C:\Users\\OneDrive (you can just click your username in the Open
dialog to go there directly), where GIMP will be able to open them.

[Gimp-user] How to apply Filters -> Generic -> Erode to a layer?

[Thomas Nyberg via gimp-user-list]

Hello,

It's a bit easier to understand my question with an example. If you open 
a new image and add in some paint tool "squiggles" (i.e. just draw some 
random stuff with the mouse), then you can "thicken" these lines after 
they are already in place by using Filters -> Generic -> Erode. If you 
click that a few times the lines themselves will spread out a little. 
This does as I expect.


Now what I want is for this to work with a layer which I'll explain with 
another example. If you create a new image as before, but you also first 
select Layer -> New Layer and then use the paint tool to add some little 
squiggles. But in this case if you do Filters -> Generic -> Erode, 
nothing happens to the lines at all. If I select Layer -> Merge Down and 
then run Filters -> Generic -> Erode again, it thickens as expected.


My question is how do I thicken the layer before merging it down? Is 
this expected behavior or a bug? Thanks for any help. Yell at me if my 
question is confusing.


Cheers,
Thomas

P.S. I'm running GIMP 2.10.8 installed directly from the debian repos 
for buster (i.e. debian 10).

Try the following:

  it took before the selection got to the other colour.
- Shrink or grow the selection half the number of steps

It may not be the fastest method but it should work.

Assuming you are using Windows, Why do you expect Gimp to set the functions
provided by the **Windows printer driver** that comes with your printer. Various
printers have various settings, get to know them.

Portrait / Landscape and scaling-to-fit should be provided by whatever printer
make you use. Some examples in screenshots.

However you need to do a little research on printing quality. One of the most
common moans is "my" US Letter size 8.5" x 11" (@ 72 ppi) in Gimp size = 600 x
800 pix and the print quality is terrible.

Because it should be 8.5 x 11" (@ 300 ppi) 2550 x 3300 pix. Gimp is a raster
(bitmap) editor and works in pixels, does not care about inches or millimetres
or...

Say you have that 8.5 x 11 @ 300 ppi image. Want to print to 11" x 17" ? - first
the aspect ratio is different **but** the resolution now becomes 200 ppi. Might
look ok / might not - depends on the image. This for simple advice:

http://blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/articles/a-handy-guide-to-image-resolutions-in-print-design

No good taking that small 600 x 800 pix image and scaling up, it will still look
rubbish. You need to start with the correct image size in **pixels** for
printing.

Want part of an Image: Make a selection -> Selection to new image. Print it, but
be aware of the above, good chance it now too small and will be crap.

To be truthful, the Gimp Windows printer plugin lacks an update. Needs a
maintainer (if anyone out there wants to contribute.)

Often better to use some other application to print your images.

I've researched this under join two images, etc.,  all that kind of thing, and
found many answers and noted there's many people asking the same thing.

But none of the answers work for me.

I finish up with different things different times.  sometimes no evidence of the
pasted image at all.  sometimes it hangs there as a 'crawling lines'  outline.
sometimes the whole 'base image' starts moving around as I try to position the
added image (which I've not had yet in clear form).

And so on.

Can someone please help with a definitive clear explanation?

The signature, of course,  is a little rectange mainly erased just the writing
existing.  The base image is a document.  A4.

There isn't really much you can do to the picture to make it look better on
the screen. Increasing saturation might help a bit, but the only real way
is to get a better screen for your computer.

Clipping Path? A nasty PS thing for jpegs? No good trying to apply PS concepts
to Gimp. If you have not already seen this worth a look.

In pictures: https://i.imgur.com/ayyAcDw.jpg

Ctrl-Shift-click (Command-Shift maybe for Mac) deletes a control point or a
segment between control points

Control points not in the correct place, add as required with Ctrl-click

Gimp is built around plugins and paths are no exception. 

Lots here http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-path-tools/files/scripts/  all
python plug-ins

and about 5 down ofn-path-edits.py Comes with documentation on use, although for
joining control points they have to overlap closely.

Still using Gimp 2.8? Time to upgrade to Gimp 2.10 (unless of course unlucky to
have a Mac)

[Gimp-user] How to cut or combine paths in GIMP

[Kjotvi]

I am trying to do a simple clipping math in GIMP, and I need to combine a
circular path with a bump out to show part of the image that extends beyond the
circular path. In my experience I would either cut the circle or delete a short
section of the circle, then link the end points of the "bump-out" to the new end
points fo the circular path. Alternatively I could have the "bump-out" overlap
the circle, and merge the two.

I can find no "delete path section", "cut path section", or "merge paths"
language (or anything similar) anywhere in the GIMP manual. How would I go about
accomplishing this?

[Gimp-user] How to cut or combine paths in GIMP

[rich404]

Additional to the previous:

To add a mask in Gimp Layer -> Mask -> Add Layer Mask

see: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-layer-mask-add.html

A few ways but say, using Black (full transparency) then Path-to-selection, fill
the selection with white.

Saving as a Gimp .xcf keeps masks, paths, active selections. For an export, png
keeps transparency, You can try exporting as a psd, but as-far-as-I-know while
you get transparency & a layer mask, that is all. No paths transferred.

[Gimp-user] How do I get my photo to look like it does on the Galaxy 8 cell phone?

[cingib via gimp-user-list]

I have a Galaxy 8 (samsung) that uses an Amoled screen, which makes my
photos really pop (extremely sharp and color is amazing). Unfortunately,
when I try to pull them up on my computer screen, they look flat and fuzzy.
I've been trying to use different photo editing programs (including Gimp),
but they really just don't capture it. Is there a way to EASILY transform
these photos to look at least a little bit as good as they do on the phone?

First a caveat, I would not recognise a comet at 100 metres.

Always many ways with Gimp but try: (with screenshots)

1. I would promote the image to 16 bit, might be that already, I see your jpg
has a quality setting of 55 to get a smaller file size. Use your best image.
https://i.imgur.com/BqFWbsG.jpg

2. Duplicate the layer "Layer -> Duplicate layer" and apply a large gaussian
blur to the new layer. "Filters -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur". The value will go
above 100, do not be fooled by the sliders. Round about 200
https://i.imgur.com/llKHYQy.jpg

3. Put that blurred layer into "Difference" mode. That will even out the
background. https://i.imgur.com/J3lfW0R.jpg

4. Rather than destroying your work combine those layers "Layer -> New From
Visible". Apply "Colors-> Levels" to this layer. Use the White point picker and
choose one of those larger white-ish stars. https://i.imgur.com/RRFP2iN.jpg

5. Get rid of the smaller stars/junk "Filters -> Generic -> Erode". If you feel
it needs it, repeat. https://i.imgur.com/dcNks8Y.jpg

Attached a result, again lower quality setting to get the file size down.
Might/might not be what you require.

[Gimp-user] How to fix vignettting, smooth out digital noise and reduce sky glow in astro-photo

[1stSolo]

Hi, all.

I have a picture of comet 46P/Wirtanen from a few nights ago.

I'm new to GIMP and it's like a space shuttle control panel to me.

Can you please provide step-by-step instructions to
1. reduce vignetting in the corners
2. smooth out the background noise
3. keep stars (the brightest ones are already over-saturated) and comet and
approximately the same brightness but make the background sky darker

I tried playing with levels picking various black/white/mid points but wasn't
happy with the results.

I also tried gaussian blur but could not figure out how to apply it to the photo
without bluring the stars. Perhaps some mask needs to be created to isolate
stars and comet so that the gauss filter can be applied to the rest of the
pixels and allow to keep the comet and stars sharp?

Thanks!

My advice, ask the question on one of those other forums where it is easier to
give comprehensive advice than using this mailing list format.

However, This using a Ubuntu 18.10 (VM) Gimp 2.10.8 from ppa and gmic_gimp_qt
from www.gmic.eu Can't be a million miles from your Mint installation.

[img]https://i.imgur.com/Rt4JraK.jpg[/img]

Not working? It might just be some missing QT dependencies?

or

Using maybe a flatpak Gimp 2.10? No QT support in this. I can get an old GTK
version of gmic working but only because I am keen.

An alternative for linux is an appimage. The latest come with gmic installed.
You are dependent on what the appimage maintainer gives you.

[Gimp-user] How many people use g'mic?

[bolete2]

>Would like to hear opinions about g'mic.

I feel that GMIC completes GIMP. Actually, it was a  user on these forums who
very kindly took time to make a video addressing my last question, who
recommended GMIC to me. I really love the spirit of their project and find the
tools to be invaluable to anything I'm doing. I would also recommend the
"download all data" option from within the filter if you really love camera
presets. It's pretty amazing. I can't really stress how cool GMIC is.

I came to the forum today because I use Linux Mint and cannot seem to get GMIC
working with 2.10, so I'm stuck on  2.8. That's how much I love the GMIC. :)

I use it on occasion and *L*O*V*E* it!  I just wish I had time to
experiment more with it and see what neat effects I can get with the
various filters.  A number don't work, for some reason, but most do so
overall, I'm completely happy with it.

Peace...

G'MIC rules, there is none higher, they can have my G'MIC when they pry
it out of my cold, dead computer.  All Hail the Mighty G'MIC!

But seriously, I do use some of its 'repair' filters quite often.  A lot
of the others seem more like toys to me, but I'm sure that users with
other needs regard some functions I only play with as entirely practical
tools.
