In case of a script-fu, you can virtually place it anywhere you like and add 
the path to the script in the settings dialog for scripts.

Or you use your favourite file manager and move the file into the script 
directory of the gimp installation or the script directory that already is in 
your home directory.

Whenever you start Gimp, the plug.in and script directories are scanned for 
new or changed plug-ins or scripts that are to be registered. So after you 
have copied the script to the correct location and started Gimp, you will be 
able to use it.

Cool, that is something I have been in need of for a while. Just filled

I have a friend who is currently Gimping on a Mac and would love to have 
something like this. Has anyone compiled this for Mac?

UFRaw is a very good RAW converter, and it exists for Window$ too, which is a 
good alternative to the very expensive Nikon Camera Raw or Fuji HyperUtility. 
You can also use KIM, which is an integrated UI to ImageMagick, but available 
from Konqueror (Richt click>Actions>evey action available from ImageMagick). 
Image Magick is a command-line image manipulation program. I use it to resize 
and save photos, add a copyright, simply with a script. KIM allows you to do 
it with your mouse : you can rotate, resize, convert, save a compressed jpeg, 
etc.
PTLens is a very cheap - but excellent - plug-in or standalone program to 
correct deformations and chromatic aberrations on a photo. The database 
includes a lot of cameras and lenses. For 15 $, you can download every next 
release. I use it as a batch program to perform the corrections in a folder. 
Works under Window$.

Have fun !

Gimp version seems be have been untouched for a year, but the core

in greyc, you can test the command line denoiser for speed changes.

Re: [Gimp-user] plugins for photographers

[Alexander Rabtchevich]

I usually use noise reduction with a grain of salt. As I understand, 
GREYCstoration differs in its approach from most of other filters: it 
tries to predict some edges in initial picture, not to simply blur it.
http://www.haypocalc.com/wiki/GREYCstoration_en
I usually decrease the amount of noise reduction the plug-in provides 
as default. Also if only some important details suffer from visible 
noise they can be selected and GREYCstoration then applies to the 
selection only. It takes much less time and memory.
Concerning its development it seems it does not take place now :(. The 
latest version I ever seen is greycstoration-0.2.4-a.tgz . I do not 
remember where I've got it from.

Another plug-in to do combined adjustments of whitebalance, levels and
saturation can be found at
http://pippin.gimp.org/plug-ins/color_correct/ I haven't touched the
code of the plug-in in a long time, and the user interface have a few
rough edges, but it provides live preview in the image, as well as the
ability to do an initial automatic whitebalance / white balance based
on a picked neutral grey, as well as adjusting the blackpoint.

Re: [Gimp-user] plugins for photographers

[Alexander Rabtchevich]

Hello, Luka

I wasn't able to find this mode, sorry :(. I set foreground color to 
the current color of some part of an image, the background color to the 
desired color, set the mode "from foreground color" but it did not help 
- the color to be changed appeared grey, not background color.
I'll try to express the idea. We have some object of the scene of the 
known color. It is not grey, but it has known color. So I want to adjust 
the WB to match the actual color of the object with its known color 
(make them equal).
The practical example follows. My father's room is lighted with halogen 
lamps, and the light is rather strong. So if I take photos in this room, 
the resulting light is a combination of flash and external light. And 
the ratio between these lights differs from shot to shot, so there are 
no permanent WB settings. And it's really impossible to add grey card to 
each shot :) at the party. But if the correct color can be once found of 
some cloths or wall these data may be used when processing further images.

Yesterday I have tried this one and dcam noise 2. Well, GREYCstoration 
seems rather slow to me, it takes really long time to complete and at 
the end I didn't see any improvement to the image (maybe the parameters 
where not set the right way). The second is much faster though in the 
first tries the result contained very blurred areas where the noise is 
particularly strong. Anyway playing with the parameters I could obtain 
still good details containing the noise and the result is very similar 
to what I obtained applying the gaussian blur.

Being slower I assume GREYCstoration performs much more complex

Re: [Gimp-user] plugins for photographers

[Luca de Alfaro]

They are scripts.
I am actually glad that the days of coding in C are past me :-)  I looked at
the code for some plug-ins, and I decided I'd rather not do that!  Also,
actually, I prefer scripts, as I can move them from machine to machine
without a need to recompile (not on all my machines I have a build
environment). They seem preferable - to install them, you just drop them
into place!

I actually think that the combination of a number-crunching core written in
C, and control scripts written in interpreted, high-level, languages, and
consequently easy to install/modify by users, is a very good paradigm.  As a
user, I am much more likely to tinker with simple, self-contained scheme
scripts, than with .c stuff that needs a whole build environment to compile.

Re: [Gimp-user] plugins for photographers

Ok, I made two plugins (available from the repository):

- colortemp: converts the color temperature of an image.  You can specify
the source temperature in K, or as the temperatue at which a black-body
color best matches the selected foreground color.

- whitebalance: converts the foreground color to either neutral gray, or to
a specified background color.  This is similar to grey-point, the difference
being that the color transformation can be performed in the linear, rather
than in the gamma-corrected, color space, and so may work better for
removing color casts.

I hope these can be useful to others!  I was certainly very much in need for
them, and I wonder why I was so lazy to learn script-fu only now (lack of
documentation? nah, cannot be it ;-).

Re: [Gimp-user] plugins for photographers

[Alexander Rabtchevich]

Hi, Fabrizio

I use mainly the next plug-ins on everyday basis:
1. UFRaw to import RAW files with my digital camera. I've created a 
profile with LProf for my G500 and enjoy natural pleasant colors.
2. fblur - focus blur plug-in to imitate blurriness in out-of-focus 
areas (boke).
3. refocus (do not mix with refocus-it) plugin to add natural sharpness 
to images (it uses other technique than sharpening).
4. GREYCstoration - for noise reduction.
5. my script to remove red eye.

As for tools, the main ones are:
Clone and Heal,
new Crop with fixed ratio, dimmed non-selected areas and possible 
thirds guidelines
levels and curves (if the source is jpg, not RAW).

What I really miss for in-camera jpegs is advanced WB correction tool. I 
would like to see gray color picker in WB correction tool, not only in 
Levels tool. Also I would like the plug-in to be able to take some color 
from the picture as given color (select a pixel|group of pixels with 
eye-dropper and enter its desired "correct" color manually (RGB or HSV)) 
to recalculate the whole picture. The only difference with gray point 
selector is the sample is not gray, but has known color.

Yes. You should take a look at the 'gimptool' command - try the '--help'

Indira,

chmod +x linoleum.pl

Also, this particular plug-in requires PDL, so you
must have PDL and the gimp module compiled with PDL
support.

If you start gimp from the commandline and see errors,
those would indicate why its not registering past the
executable bit not being set.

Since its a perl-fu script, you can start the Perl
Server (Xtns->Perl Server) and then run it from the
commandline as well.  

Best of luck!
