Lyle, 1) batch renaming 2) batch file-type conversion 3) batch rotations (righting vertical photos) 4) batch resizing David's Batch Processor is a Gimp plugin which does most of these: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~hodsond/dbp.html Give it a try, and let me know if you have any suggestions. Also, are there any viewing options that allow for jumping from photo to photo by using Page Up Page Down?

Hi, Lyle (Hiroshi) Saxon [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: 1) batch renaming 2) batch file-type conversion 3) batch rotations (righting vertical photos) 4) batch resizing I posted a script to do batch processing here about a week ago. It showed how to apply unsharp-mask on a bunch of pictures. You should be able to dapt it to your needs. After looking at your needs I would however say that ImageMagick is probably a better choice than GIMP. You also might want to look into jpegtran or exiftran which are utilities for lossless rotation of JPEG images (optionally using the EXIF orientation tag).

Hi, Alan Horkan [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I have to ask why reject such patches? Because IMO the name is important. If we allow the name to be changed easily, our users will not any longer know what software they are using. Contributors will be lost because they will look for the Foo project instead of the GIMP project. (Sven I know you understand what I'm saying but other do not seem to get exactly what I'm asking) To make myself as clear as I possibly can I'm not asking for the project to change its name but to accept patches that allow others to rebrand the gimp if they want. It would also make it way too easy for anyone who wants to make some quick money out of The GIMP. This has happened already, people already package and sell the gimp and their failure to provide adequate support has hurt the gimp brand. If it was easier for them to rebrand it would be reasonable to expect them to do so and make it clear that their product is not officially endorsed by the gimp project. (I'm referring to this widely reported incident of a Mac user who paid for the gimp and got no service from the vendors and as a result was excessively critical. http://www.wpdfd.com/editorial/wpd0504review.htm ) We must not allow people to change the name by means of a simple configure option and let them benefit from our hard work. First of all thank you for providing a clear explanation. If the issue comes up again users wont be left in any doubt of how things stand and I can direct them to your comments. I will add this to the wiki, as I think it has been asked enough to be considered a Frequently Asked Question. Free Software already allows them to do exactly the kinds of changes you would rather not allow people to make. Despite the fact that it it might happen anyway I can understand that you dont want to make it easy. You are in the lead developer in charge and can do anything you want and I certainly wouldn't expect you to make the changes but I'd feel a lot better if you gave a good reason to reject patches that would make it easier to get more people to use Free Software? I seriously doubt that the name is effectively keeping GIMP from being used. I am all happy to ignore the very few people who are so narrow-minded as to having a problem with the name. I'd rather see more people use Free Software. I'm disappointed that people here do not seem to understand or accept that some people (and it seems only to be a small minority of native English speakers in particular) have issue with the name and that their concersns are being dismissed as as some sort of narrow minded political correctness. I dont believe the complaints will go away but as you are happy to ignore the complaints I'll accept that and when I've responded to the messages in this thread I will try not to bring the issue up again. If a project as big as Mozilla Firefox allows it name to be changed, why would it be an issue for the gimp? For Firefox having the name configurable is part of the business plan. I can't find any such note in the GIMP's business plan. Heck, I can't even find the plan. I think it is a shame there is not a clear plan for the gimp and I think it would be a very good thing if there was a plan and efforts made to commericalise the gimp to allow developers like yourself (or others) to get better rewarded for the work you do improving the gimp. Why require people to fork or maintain their own patchsets for the sake of a little extra configurability. So that it becomes harder for them to do this. And if they really think it's worth all the hassle, well, then they can do it. I suppose it is reasonable to draw the line somewhere. Thanks again for making a clear decision and explaining it.

In the US (perhaps elsewhere) gimp implies hobbled or broken: His gimp leg kept him from running the race or Her gimp hand prevented her from reaching the jar on the top shelf. See this definition: http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/cgi-bin/webwn?stage=1word=gimp It doesn't have to imply a guy strapped in leather just because of a movie. The word itself is inappropriate for software if you're trying to feed it to the unwashed masses. I said this when GIMP was chosen as a name back when it moved from Motif to GTK (though I'd be hard pressed to find the mailing list entry that proves this). But no one listened, or at least they didn't agree, then. And that's okay. It really isn't that big a deal. It probably isn't keeping that many people from using it. But it is a silly name. And I have wished for years that it would be changed to something more inviting. I couldn't agree more (and that movie you're referring to I haven't even seen), but if the masses don't want it changed (which is the impression I got from the last thread asking the opinion of a name change) then don't change it. It's that simple. And if we won't change it then don't let anyone change it, because I've come to realize that giving [dump] people choices will hurt them. Even if it was up the the user to call the GIMP something else (say ImageBlah), would you actually tell your friend I'm using ImageBlah ...? I certainly would not, because they go to google and imageblah doesn't exist !!! So that's why I think the decision has to be collective.

Greetings from Tokyo!
I've been using Linux for all of my text-based tasks for about nine
months now, but have kept an off-line W-box running with ACD-See and
PS-7 for my photo work. ACD-See (Ver.-4.0) handles most of what I need
to do with photos - mainly batch renaming, batch file type conversions,
batch rotations, and batch resizing. More than I used to, but still
only fairly rarely do I spend much time with a single photo changing
colors, and when I do, it's usually to correct the color balance of
non-flash available-light photos with wildly incorrect colors or to
slightly rotate (via free transform) photos taken slightly at an angle.
Although I've been reading things posted at this gimp user group on and
off, I'm ashamed to admit that I've only actually used gimp for the
first time this past week. From what I can see, it's able to do what I
have been doing with PS-7 for the most part, but I wasn't able to find a
function for resizing or the other things I generally do with ACD-See.
So, I want to ask if the following things can be done with gimp - help
me to finally escape from the sinister W-world! I can't keep my old
W-box running forever.
1) batch renaming
You can do this with any number of scripting languages including perl,
python and shell. I generally do it with a shell script:
You would need to offer an example of your specific needs. If I had a
bunch of files named *.JPG and wanted them changed to *.jpg, I would do:
for fn in *.JPG; do
mv $fn ${fn%JPG}jpg
done
2) batch file-type conversion
Imagemagick, specifically the 'convert' command:
convert foo.gif foo.jpg
3) batch rotations (righting vertical photos)
A combination of shell and imagemagick:
for fn in *.jpg; do
convert -rotate 90 $fn $fn
done
4) batch resizing
imagemagick:
for fn in *.jpg; do
convert -resize 50% $fn $fn
done
Also, are there any viewing options that allow for jumping from photo to
photo by using Page Up Page Down? (I'm able to do that with GQview,
so it's not important, but if the feature exists, I'd like to try it
with gimp.)
There are various tools out there available to preview images on Linux,
you'd be best to do a bit of googling.
