Fog

2000-10-03 Thread Jim Clark

I made some pretty good fog on a picture by making a transparent layer,
creating circles, filling them with white, doing a major Gaussian blur,
and then reducing the transparency on that layer until they were just
barely visible.
Simple but worked very well to create different intensities and
different blotchiness.
Cheers!

Its a filter.

Each layer has an adjustment for its transparency.

Experiment!  Try all kinds of stuff and see what happens.  Things will
begin to feel more natural with time.

IIRC Tigert (http://tigert.gimp.org/) had a tutorial where he created
clouds, fog or something like that. I think it was a tutorial for a
meeting, expo or whatever the name. I remember it had mountains and
stars, too.

i tried this, but:  what is plasma?  in generell, how do i do "special"
colors like "transparent", "opaque" or whatever.  only thing i can handle
up to now is select and make a layer, but i have no intuitive feeling as to
how they are operated.  could someone please bring us intuition?

One idea that comes to mind would be to add a layer and then fill it with
plasma, desaturate, and then adjust the transparency to a fog-like effect.

Bonus points for erasing some of it to get a more natural looking effect.

Fog?

2000-09-29 Thread Joachim Ansorg

Hi all!

I have an image and I want to add fog to it.

What's the best method to add a fog-like effect?

I thought about channels but I don't know how to get fogs with it.

I'm unexperienced.

Thank you!
