 I've wanted that too. You can do it the old way (the way we used
 before the red-eye filter was added in GIMP 2.4): select the pupil,
 perhaps with the ellipse selection tool, then use something like
 the Hue-Saturation tool to desaturate and darken.
 
 But it doesn't work as well on animal eyes as on human, because
 animal pupils are often much larger and is very light, and it's
 hard to make it turn black. Sometimes I have to paint in some black.
 Also, the animal pupil colors tend to be a lot less saturated than
 human redeye, so it might be harder to write a tool to select it
 in an automated way.
 
 Anybody have a reliable way to deal with animal greeneye?

You could also use the following:

(a) The Colour-Match plug-in (select eye region, select colour to
substitute within the region and the colour you want it to change into)

(b) The User-Filter plug-in (you can adopt the formula for the red-eye
reduction for other colours - especially green should be fairly easy).
The formula is not as accurate as the native red-eye reduction since
User-Filter does not use floating point values, but it still works
pretty well - in fact, I think it is an old formula of the native plug-in.
I don't have a working example of green-eye reduction (lacking some
proper animal pictures) but you can still play around with the formula
for red-eyes (ctl(0) being the slider which controls the sensitivity for
colour removal):
R=(r/5=g-ctl(0))(r/5=b/2-ctl(0))?g+b/2:r
G=g
B=b
A=a

[Gimp-user] Removal of yellow and green eyes

2010-11-03 Thread Per Tunedal
Hi,
what about variants of the remove red eyes filter?

I take pictures of animals and they get other unwanted colours like 
green or yellow in their eyes.

I suppose it would be feasible to introduce the opportunity to 
remove other colours but red.

The remove red eyes filter is found under filter - enhance.

I would be happy if there was two more filters:

remove green eyes and remove yellow eyes.

Or maybe a filter with an option to chose which colour to remove.


Yours,
Per Tunedal
