Re: [Gimp-user] Digital Watercolor effect in GIMP?

This sounded pretty fascinating, and I was wondering if anyone has attempted to create the same effect with GIMP. Or would it require too radical a rewrite of the code? After all, currently GIMP assumes that it doesn't matter _when_ you make a certain stroke with the virtual pen; it doesn't matter if you do a certain stroke two seconds or two minutes after the previous one - the result will be the same. But to implement such an effect, some kind of time-sensitive mechanism would have to be included - or at least, that's my impression from reading about it... Not specifically GIMP, but take a look at those projects: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~mrenold/mypaint/ http://www.goghproject.com/ http://www.koffice.org/krita/ All are free software and like Painter. -- -- Renan Renan_S2 Birck| Everyone knows that Linux http://renanbirck.deviantart.com | does not exist.

You may want to take a look at Wetdream by Raph Levien: http://www.levien.com/gimp/wetdream.html As far as I know, it's still not in GIMP, but the author explains quickly some of the integration problems, because of the difference in the way pixels are stored. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Hmmm. That page is dated to September 4th 2001, which isn't encouraging.
