[Gimp-user] Create a spiral
I have recently been using the tutorial recommended here at http://www.gimpguru.org/Tutorials/ReplaceForeground/ and I am amazingly impressed. I wish to venture further into the gimp and create my own background. I was hoping to create a spiral of the sort here... http://www.iamts.org/images/spiral.gif Is there a tutorial or something about this? Kind regards Kevin - Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.

Hmm..that spiral is a particular curve, which is not implemented in the GIMP. You can do other type of spirals with the blend tool (select spiral gradient), or with the Gfig filter (in filters-render). If you want this kind of spiral, I'd suggest that you work on the image you just showed us, instead of creating a new (identical?) one. You can enlarge it without quality loss using scale image, followed buy a gaussian blur filter, and sharppening contrast back. If you need this particular curve, but with other parameters like width variation, number of turns, etc, you wll have to do it programatically, either using gimp scripts, or as a standalone program.
