I have a simple image. Layer 1 is a background, layer 2 is some text
that is black. How can I easily change the color of this text once it's
been committed to the layer?
I prefer using the Curves dialogue. This way you get to keep your
antialiasing, and you don't need to worry about masks ans
;save as bitmap"
(I know mathematica has such a menu). Good luck.

This is a little complicated, but bear with me:
1: Desaturate the image (make greyscale while staying in RGB space)
2: Invert the image
3: Copy the image
4: Bring up layers dialogue
5: Add a layer and fill it with red
6: Add a mask to this layer
7: Paste into the mask
8: Apply the mask
That
Try it with the gimp. It works last time I tried.
(IE and mozilla support it fine), but it is the only way that
I know of to do it. Conversly, you could flatten the image and delete just
the background (leaving a light hue around the text), but then why even use
a transparent gif?
-James Smaby
olors but everything prints out perfect and
displays right in Windows.
So my recomendation is to bite the bullet and learn how how to
typeset. It really isn't that bad, and your results will be so
much more beautiful than anything that Distiller puts out. Hope
this email wasn't too long...

Make sure your image is in RGB format before scaling it. If you are doing the
scaling with an indexed image, antialiasing can't happen. You can also scecify
cubic interpolation in your gimp preferences.
Are you converting to indexed before or after merging all layers? The less
colors you give it the better job it can do, so flatten out the colors from
non-visable layers.
...but I bloody don't want to download it.
There are those sitting on a t3...
Even on a T3, I still don't want to download (well, accept) SPAM
just on principle. BTW, I don't like egroups.com for a simpler
reason than advertisments. I just prefer .org and .edu domains
and think orginizations
It says in the gimp manual. In the layers dialogue, save the layer
name as foo(200ms) and layer foo will display for 200 miliseconds.
Rather simple really.
Have you messed with gnuplot? After reading the help (which is quite
extensive) you can figure out how to modify your sin curve as you see
fit. When you get something you like, just output to a .gif file and
play with it in gimp. Certainly easier than coding in pascal ;)
Sure, see http://virgo.umeche.maine.edu/gimp
-o panorama'.
Try it out and see if this does the job.

Hope that helped.

make a better picture (no, I do
not want to see them in a bikini (although that might make for
a funny tutorial), I mean a closeup of thier face). According
to a slashdot observation, apache is the http server of choice
of the porn industry; is the gimp the image editor of choice?

Go to Image - Colors - Curves
Change [Value] to the different color channels, and move the ends
of the curve around until you get what you want.
./configure --host=i386-unknown-linux
or
./configure --host=i386-unknown-linux-gnu
I need to specify this for quite a few things on my alpha (well,
with the obvious change). Do a "./configure --help" if you want
to see all the options.
Boy, you're sure having a tough time. It seems your compiler
is configured wrong (do you never compile things?). I've had
similar problems on my SGI (I've actually given up on it). I
suggest reinstalling the compiler if it doesn't work for other
source as well (if it normall works, I don't
Well, you're original gtk was the mdk version, right? If this
is the case, then your `upgrade' using the redhat binary didnt
uninstall the mandrake version first. I suggest doing this by
hand, then installing the redhat rpm. I thought both of these
distributions put gtk in /usr, but you may
Uninstall the other programs first, or do
rpm -ivh foo-bar.rpm --force
The gif format does not support a full alpha (transparency) channel, so
if you want antialiasing, you need to know the color of your background
first, merge it with your text, color-select the background color, then
delete it. You should be left with the text surrounded by a little bit
of the
24bit = RGB
flatten an alpha that might be there.
Just save in tga format.
TeX Computer Modern font...
I don't like some of the design characteristics of
cm. The ff ligature is a little ghastly, and at a
normal pointsize (cmr10) the font is a too `light'
for my taste. I prefer the good old venitian font
families (notice Google uses one of these in thier
logo). It
without the letter
`e' in it...

Gamma correction?
when I use some color for background of the image and the same
color for the background of the HTML page and then I try to display the page
in MSIE or Mozilla there is a slight difference in the background color
Is it just me, or do interlaced png's take alot longer to load
up that non-interlaced? I'm on a T3, so rendering is normally
where the bottleneck is. I use Netscape 4.73 on linux, and it
annoys me to the point where I don't do any interlacing at all
on my web page graphics. Is this just a
since I lost text-version ability
Who says lynx doesn't support png's? Lynx actually does a much better
rendering of png's than any `graphical' browser so far! Of course, it
doesn't really do the rendering itself, but forks the displaying of it
to xv or whatever the person installing lynx sets
Have you tried playing with 'levels'?
Check out the plug-in at
Image-Colors-Colormap Rotation...
I just discovered this today, and think
it would be a good tool for getting rid
of redeye (just select the eyes first).
-James Smaby
You could, of course, do it manually:
copy the image into a second layer,
flip this horizontally,
add a layer mask,
give the layer mask a linear gradiant.
I beleive the make seamless plugin works in a similar way, only
more complicated because it needs to tile in two dimentions.
-James Smaby
plugins. If I bring up the gimp, and
pick the first plugin I come to (sethspin), I get a seg fault (but typing E at
the console gimp is running on kills the plugin without crashing the gimp too)
-James Smaby
think that make
seamless is what I should be using (it works much faster), but this sometimes
makes odd-looking tiles, and so resynthesizer is a good alternative (just let
it run over night :)
-James Smaby
I downloaded, read the README, and installed Resynth is nowhere to
be found?!
Should turn up in image/filters/map/resynthesize
