While this is a major draw back with gimp I understand the need is recognised and will hopefully be remedied in the near future. When that happens gimp will be laying the foundation for an entry into the professional arena. Though I haven't followed this thread from the start and don't know who said what on which issue but I do want to suggest you to try Cinepaint (16-bit Gimp) for 16-bit - it's here: http://www.cinepaint.org/ -- HTH, Asif IMO it is already a professional level product for web images. But it still lags other free products with repect to color model, color profiles and conformance to printing standards like X3. So it is not a fully satisfactory replacement to commercial products for publishers. Work is proceeding in this area but the color model problem is a difficult nut to crack apparently. -- John Culleton ATTN Publishers/authors: If you don't read you don't succeed.

Re: [Gimp-user] cant open psd files
Hi, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2007-07-21 at 2026.55 -0600): Every time and on each machine i get Error: Can't convert PSD mode to GIMP base imagetype any brilliant insights? (im sure there are many, how about insights this error :D ) I would check the image is RGB, Greyscale or Indexed type.

Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP and tilt sensitivity
Hi, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2007-07-19 at 1856.54 -0400): I have personally tried to create such a brush, but the results are inconclusive. I use an Intuos 3 tablet and have created (just for test) a 3 x 3 matrix containing 9 images and 2 ranks, first for x-tilt and second for y-tilt. As far as I understood, this would have created one image for: [...] I did a demo for some doubts in IRC, over two years ago, and I barely remember it so excuse the fuzzyness of the description (currently I do not have access to the tablet, so no way to test it again): 3*3 items per layer were for tilt, using each axis as indexer, and the layers were another indexer or two (2 groups of 2 layers), thus giving 3D or 4D image. I think it worked at the time, allowing people to see the effects of the 3 or 4 tablet variables. http://www.infernal-iceberg.com/gimp/tmp/pipe-brush-angle-and-tilts.gih http://www.infernal-iceberg.com/gimp/tmp/pipe-brush-angle-and-tilts.xcf.bz2 http://www.infernal-iceberg.com/gimp/tmp/pipe-brush-pressure-angle-and-tilts.gih http://www.infernal-iceberg.com/gimp/tmp/pipe-brush-pressure-angle-and-tilts.xcf.bz2 GSR ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP and tilt sensitivity
Hi GSR, Thank you very much for your examples, they also helped me understand a bit more the Save as GIH dialogue. One of the things that strikes me as illogical was that you start the ranks from the bottom and go to the top as you add more ranks?... It seemed more logical to me to have the first governing rank on top, while the second is underneath it, etc. If you don't mind explaining the logic, it would be great and might teach me a thing or two about GIMP and this concept. So, taking your brush pipe-brush-pressure-angle-and-tilts.gih, I read the first rank for x-tilt, composed of 3 cells. Next rank, y-tilt, created from 3 cells as well - so far, that's a 9 cell matrix with the numbers 1 through 9, printed according to the X/Y tilt. Then you have an angular brush with two ranks (the black and red colored numbers governing the angle of your stroke, somehow the black only appears from degree 0 (upwards) to 90 (right), from 90 to 359 the red takes over? Shouldn't it be black from degrees 0 to 179 and red from 180 to 359?) and the last rank, pressure, uses black and red colors for a light pressure and green and blue for harder pressure, alternating colors as per the angle of your brush. P.S. I'm explaining these things back to you just to make sure I understood things right, please don't feel offended if I state the obvious :) But your example is much appreciated, it proved the options work as expected (except that weird angular decision) and also gave me an insight the manual was not able to provide.
