Re: [Gimp-developer] Possibility of a stand in Siggraph
Just throwing it out there... It might be cool to have a stand split between the main LGM projects (GIMP, Blender, Inkscape, Scribus, Xara).On 5/10/06, Dave Neary <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:There's a decent possibility of having a stand very cheap (proper island stand, partially sponsored, in the main conference area) which we would share withBlender and some other projects (Ton from Blender's co-ordinating). I wouldlove to have the GIMP represented at a top flight conference like this, and think it's worth the money - the GIMP's part of the pie would be between $1Kand $2K, depending on the levels of sponsorship, whether we bed in with theGNOME guys, etc. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

[Gimp-developer] Color Paletes for Gimp, Inkscape and Krita (also Scribus compatible one)
Hello: I only wanted notify you that i've made a collection of color palettes i think can be interesting to your project. I've used some palettes included in Gimp, Krita and Inkscape and i've added some interesting others: Scribus color palette, Pantano - a Pantone Coated color palette copy (a propos of this: ¿Can I have legal problems about this ?) and some others. I've have made a simple script to install and configure all of these palettes simultaneously in Krita, Gimp and Inkscape, and I consider that it will be interesting create a separated package with palettes that all design applications could use. By the moment, each application uses ours palettes and this is not so god to work between them. I hope you find this idea and project interesting. Thanks and excuse my poor english. http://jesusda1.f2o.org/projects/colorpalettes/index.htm http://sol.blogia.com/2006/050803-colores-.php -- jEsuSdA 8) --- Hola Sólo quería nofificaros que he creado una colección de paletas de color que creo que pueden resultar interesantes para vuestros proyectos.

I'd qualify that complaint a little further. The GIMP uses CSDI, a controlled Single Document Interface, where the Toolbox is the control window[1] unlike the SDI used in Inkscape and various Gnome applications. This makes the GIMP quite unusual and unfamiliarity is enough to put off many users (but then there are other issues besides that). The biggest supporters of this scheme are users with dual head setups or a complex window manager (ie not Metacity or Windows). I would not mention the "instead of MDI" (Window in Window like Photoshp for Microsoft platforms) because that presumes too much about the best alternative. The menus not reading like photoshop increases the learning curve allowign users to leverage existing knowledge and makes it more difficult to reuse all those photoshop tutorials out there. The point I regularly make is that I'd be a lot happier if things were _the same or better than photoshop_ i.e. unless there was a specific reason to do things differently they would be the same. However the default position remains to only copy photoshop when there is a distinct benefit to doing so. I don't think this is a particularly significant problem in the grand scheme of things but it is a realtively easy complaint for users to identify and put the blame here for other difficulties they might be having trying to learn the software. -- Alan H. [1] The old version of Mathematica I had on windows used the menubar as a control window. I think Delphi did too. Macintosh applications use the menubar as the control window which is slightly different. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
Re: [Gimp-developer] about lanczos
Hi, Roberto Winter wrote: I guess the whole point is that Lanczos is not really the 'best' algorithm for reducing images (as suggested in the scalings dialogs whe selecting the algorithm). Now, isn't there a problem?... Yes, there is - and the problem isn't just that Lanczos is not the "best" algorithm for reducing images, *interpolation* of any kind is inapproprite when reducing images. Interpolation allows us to estimate pixel values that "fall in the cracks" between sample points in the original image - which is a great help when enlarging; however, when reducing, the "correct" approach is to perform a weighted average of all source pixels that are "covered" by the destination pixel. Cubic interpolation gives a tolerable approximation of the "correct" method; Lanczos Sinc, it would appear, doesn't. Another point worth considering is that, while for band-limited photographic images Lanczos performs very well, for artifically sharp images it can result in almost JPEG-like ringing artifacts. So while it produces the "best" results for many images - and is certainly the method that causes the least amount of blurring when rotating an image by a few degrees, it's not *always* the best choice.
