Something is probably missing in the Golden Text tutorial,in the www.gimp.org website.The best I can get is flat,uninteresting golden text following the steps in the tutorial,and trying with several parameters.The beautiful,rich,surface lighting(the complexity of the golden light effects on the text surface) presented seems so distant to reach. I used the same environment map image of the tutorial, and I did not do the gaussian blur on the bumpmap image (grayscale) the filter was not available. I used gimp-2.6.4 and the lighting effects plugin (standard in 2.6.4). It seems the "story" was not completely told and some kind of "secret" remains uncovered. Anybody have tried to do the same with success?
