Re: [Gimp-user] Extracting all pixels of a certain colour

2004-11-30 Thread Andreas Waechter
I want to extract all pixels of a specific colour (to be more precise 
look a certain colour).  I am finding that  there is some variation in 
the colour. so if I try select by color. I only get a subset of the 
pixels.
Is there a way of selecting all pixels close to the colour I want (where 
close can be determined by experimentation!)
Select by color allows to set a threshold - if you set it to 
 0, only the exact color is selected, the higher you set it 
the less similar a pixel must be to get selected.

Secondly can I move all these pixies into another layer/channel or 
image.  
Copy, Paste, then in the layer dialog click on new layer == 
the selection is now a layer.

2004-11-30 Thread David Neary
Hi all,

After a false start, the GIMP Splash Contest is now officially
open!

The contest runs until next Sunday, Midnight. Splash screens
should be the same size as jimmac's logo and have a pale band
across the bottom roughly the same size. Otherwise, knock
yourselves out!

Competition entries should be attached to the live.gnome.org wiki
page at http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArt_2fGimpSplashContest - you
will need to create a wiki account. We will definitely have some
kind of (small) prize sponsored, details will follow during the
week (but the real reason you are doing it is the glory, right?)

Good luck to everyone! And don't forget, spread the news!

Cheers,
Dave Neary.

[Gimp-user] Re: Reducing pixels per inch

2004-11-30 Thread GSR - FR
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (2004-11-29 at 1021.34 -0500):
 I have a large photograph that I cropped and then reduced in size. But when I 
 do that the pixels per inch goes up. How do I reduce an image in size yet 
 keep the pixels per inch at e.g., 90? I scanned at 50 PPI (the lowest Xsane 
 will do.) But when I reduce it to roughly half size by resizing the image 
 
 image-scale image 
 
 the PPI shoots up to 164. If I reset the resolution to 90 then the dimensions 
 go up. 

I started with a 10*10 inch image and 90 DPI (so it will use 900
pixels in each dimension). It is big and 90 DPI, and want it to be
half size, 5 inches but still 90 DPI.

Then in that dialog:

1. Set the units in the top most drop down menu to in(ches), so two
   top most labels will show 10.000, and the two entry boxes below it
   will show 10.000. This step is optional, but shows how things
   change.

2. Input 0.5 in the Ratio X, and as the link button is on, Y will
   change to 0.5000 as soon as you hit Tab. New Width and Height above
   it will change to 5.000 automatically. The boxes in Print Size 
   Display Unit frame will too. But Resolution boxes stay at 90.

3. Accept that settings and wait for Gimp to do the maths.

Finally check in View/Image Info that each axis is 5 inches at 90 DPI,
and logically using 450 for that.

Playing with Print Size and Display Units makes one go up when you
lower the other, and viceversa, they are interrelated and they are
merely the way to access the fields some file formats have to record
suggestions for printing. To really modify the pixel data, you have to
use the top frame controls, Pixel Dimensions.

Instead of Ratio, you can also use New Width and Height in Pixel
Dimensions ones. You _have_ to do step 1 so Gimp know you are going to
input inches, and then you can type 5 in one of the top boxes, Ratio
will be the ones that change to 0.500.

As it has been said already, all this interrelations can sound
complex, but are useful *, provided you know what will move when you
pull from a thread. This could get a video, or some graphical
representation of the relations at least:

Easy:
Top frame sizes  Top frame ratios

 Bottom frame sizes  Bottom frame resolutions

Complex:
  Top frame   Bottom frame sizes

Bottom frame size boxes   Top frame sizes if set to physical units

* Image from a 3D app or a screen capture or whatever, the point is
that nothing matches, it says 1000 pixels, 72DPI and 13.889 inches,
but you need 2 inches and 300 DPI. So you set 300 in DPI box (PSDU's
W and H will say 3.333), then change top drop down menu to inches and
type 2 in PD's Width (PSDU's W and H will go to 2, and PD's Scale
will go to 0.600).

Re: [Gimp-user] registry.gimp.org 500 server error

2004-11-30 Thread Andreas Waechter
I'd be interested in working on a new plugin registry if the old one is 
not going to be resurrected (or it if will remain unmaintained even if 
it comes back up).
it now says (in German) that there was a hardware crash,
hopefully everything will be online again in a few days (it
says Tuesday but not which Tuesday ;-) ...).

Wait a bit. Unfortunately this story ended up on slashdot and perhaps
it wasn't such a good idea to use a Wiki for this since it obviously
can't handle the load. My apologies for suggesting the Wiki in the
first place. Either the Wiki will come back to live in a day or two or
we will establish other means of submission.
