Re: [Gimp-user] Faking "Miniature" environments in GIMP from existing photographs?

I've seen various mentions of it, but I cant find it in the docs: I just scanned the PS tutorial - but not too much different in GIMP. Here are the keys to get you going (I hope): Select-All of the image (CTRL-A) Click on the Quick-Mask box in the lower left corner of the image (or Ctrl-Q ??) You will now have a mask layer - it will be the ACTIVE layer (your main image is no longer active). You can go to the "Channel" dialog to confirm. Now just as in the tutorial you want to fill the mask with a gradient - use the gradient fill tool also known as "Blend" tool. (Tools->Paint Tools->Blend in gimp 2.3, can't get to the current version of gimp at the moment - sorry). If you use the default gradient of black to white you should be able to get a gradient similar to the tutorial. Hope this helps - if not let us know and I'll add more details. -- Tim Jedlicka, Network Entomologist [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.galifree.com ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Hi, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2006-12-24 at 1519.59 +): > Hi, Saw this on Digg last night: > http://forums.livingwithstyle.com/showthread.php?t=342065 Heh, scale kit makers trying to avoid the scale look and people converting photos to it. That tutorial is rather direct to GIMP. Quick mask, blend (gradient) tool, hue/saturation, all already there, only thing you have to get is the lens defocus filter or use gaussian blur as poor substitute. http://sudakyo.hp.infoseek.co.jp/gimp/fblur/focusblur_e.html GSR ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Instead of Photoshop "Lens Blur" I use: 1) Filter -> Blur -> Motion Blur : Zoom 2) Filter -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur Regards, Dalai 2006/12/24, Dalai Felinto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Try the quick mask, and gradient tool. happy holidays, Dalai 2006/12/24, Jon Grant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hi, Saw this on Digg last night: > http://forums.livingwithstyle.com/showthread.php?t=342065 > > Anyone know how to do a gradient selection in GIMP?
