[Gimp-user] GIMP for Mac OS X
No. See 'OS X' section: http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ Chris Hi Chris, thank you so much for your reply! I did manage to successfully download and install the Gimp for Mac OS X; (the torrent download didn't work, so i did follow this link.) however, the help manual did not install. I then searched a few different links/sites for it, including: GIMP help files are available at http://download.gimp.org/pub/gimp/help/. which only led me to this big weird list which i did not understand. (A lot of this stuff was way over my head, like what tarballsare and all that… If they are only online, I hope not because I usually cannot access internet— I really hope for a manual I can download!) For the manual download I did a google search too; I also tried http://download.cnet.com/GIMP, and I also tried http://gimp.lisanet.de, and from there I finally found a download manual! — however, after installling it and getting the installation successful confirmation, it still did not work. L An error notified me that it was not installed, when I tried to open Help in Gimp. I tried re-installing it three times, with no success! Do you have any suggestions for me on what I can try to get the Gimp help manual downloaded to my iMac? I'd be super grateful!

[Gimp-user] Multiple Resizing, Oval Cropping and Watermarking
Hello everyone :-) I am a very new user to Gimp for Linux. I do understand computers but I have not extensive knowledge of photo editing. So this is what I would like help with. I have a bunch of photos that I would like to resize and Watermark. 1. Is there a way I could resize all photos in a folder, or the ones I choose to a certain width, height etc.? 2. I am trying to Watermark with text and a photo these photos. I have used two scripts which work pretty well. I have found these scripts here : http://www.skipser.com/p/2/p/how-to-watermark-photos-using-gimp.html I have managed to make them watermark just fine. If someone knows of a way to watermark multiple photos that would be great. I have found this software http://www.daanav.com/watermark-software-for-linux/ but it does not do the job I need. 3. I have a problem with cropping in an oval shape the photo I want. I took a photo and used the oval selection tool. Then cropped to selection but it does not select only the oval shape, but the whole rectangle. Then I choose Image - Grayscale and I export. The problems I have are two: When I watermark with that picture, I see the rectangle and not the oval shape, and most importantly I see the selection saved with the photo. What you see in the picture is what I get after I watermark. It is the photo which is cropped in an oval shape, but it seems that when I saved it, it saved the rectangle selection as well. Also if the background is not white, then I can see the white rectangle as well... Could someone please help me?

Re: [Gimp-user] Multiple Resizing, Oval Cropping and Watermarking
Your distribution probably has imagemagick. Use imagemagick to batch convert and watermark. Take a look at this: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/annotating/ HTH, Partha On Sun, Sep 28, 2014 at 2:34 PM, ermns for...@gimpusers.com wrote: Hello everyone :-) I am a very new user to Gimp for Linux.

This is a frequently used option for non-rectangular image content that will be displayed on websites. To add or remove the alpha channel from your image or layer, right click on the thumbnail in the Layers dialog and select Add alpha channel or Remove alpha channel. To preserve a transparent background in your finished image, export the finished image in PNG format. Saving as JPG (for instance) will turn the transparent areas into the background color that is set at the time, as JPG does not support transparency. :o) Steve -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJUKHAXAAoJEDZ0Gg87KR0LcU8QAOjNHfiBZZn3gan/GruobDtu NfXMJZNdfgjkPEGgUk4q+c1wxW04qO2eFTKdXmiEcEhZDdlLEjf9cz3CXHtd5lMz mCJC0XMcOAZ32iBedxjPST8okMpEX2kCpvmMtXYvWoqyzbehaN+zCtctuZsey704 44+BohzAHVSLH9bhu5iB2v9ku1e2/zNHz7ld8+nT2791rPGNGh0MDFn58lxlA5Gz cRUDPMqSQ1vQ2KLbW21n6d0egrbGlJiDcIApyTJDX9GQ2NvEDhojidZeBZnIqqED Dn+DbLMdxtiVND0L7EfqWulj+mK0uP+WTvM0Xw85Dmcqpu9f5XkTvPHVKqpxCn6k E6RZG7NBZTYkqCb8GT3YQbOGPnRPPLFh6KfHEpr9GGJYW+8Jt2HTRoPeAt2GXSHw 0wrySRDcynhwRbkAAMtbjfjowcUM6Whhh89eK9D9bH+8w4Jm4OLkW0ekJsmKLP3l dbkaxIZt6APqRQZdKgvV0xpmWmgcjpmFeKhuUosxSTjRoXvRg6NV0AU/w3gGIDc+ hMEKgIIPH45kZEB7PM9AYdilLvRGjatzkRv3azi74zI1ApUr/+yWovDx/NED5GK6 9pTifYnOv9kMdMjF6uMkWfruCX8OMy/rNqNcU0TzVkmpOx6oIJkYWg5EJjBQGVuq tP5c0mX9iH/4aRYzFmvh =lrRu -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] Multiple Resizing, Oval Cropping and Watermarking
And if you really only want to use Gimp, then look at dbp (Dave's batch processing) or BIMP.
