I downloaded and installed your plugin. Nice addition to the GIMP's functionality. -- 73, AC7ZZ http://counter.li.org/ Linux User #246504 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

This seems like a very versatile and basic tool and should be made more generally available to GIMP users. -- 73, AC7ZZ http://counter.li.org/ Linux User #246504 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Yes, Gimp is a good tool for this, and no, you don't need to write a script - there is a Gimp plugin that lets you do it all using a graphical interface.

If you are already using a *nix system, you probably already have it. If not, you can get it at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php and you can use it with cmd.exe if you must. -- 73, AC7ZZ http://counter.li.org/ Linux User #246504 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] batch script for record covers
I'm in the process of digitizing some hundreds record covers (either from old vinyl and/or from cd) by rigging my camera and flash on a tripod and shooting all the images one after the other. The tough task, though, is prepare them for my site: 1 - opening each image 2 - crop it as a square (thus eliminating the white background and just keeping the record cover) 3 - Resize the image to a certain size (say 400x400) 4 - slightly sharpen it 5 - save the image adding some prefix (say b_ just to tell it from the original) 6 - Resize the image to a middle size (say 200x200) 7 - slightly sharpen it 8 - save the image adding some prefix (say m_ just to tell it from the others) 9 - Resize the image to a small size (say 75x75) 10 - slightly sharpen it 11 - save the image adding some prefix (say s_ just to tell it from the others) I guess that such a job could most probably be performed over hundreds of images by running a single batch script at the command line. Am I wrong? Is Gimp the right tool at all, or other tools would better fit? Where could I start to build such a thing? Is there anything the like already made?
