Hi!

 I would like doing something like this :
 http://axel584.free.fr/table6.gif
 Whith Ph0t0sh0p, I do a blur on the shape (or the text) and I put
 the image/mode to bitmap (with corrects arguments)
 But I didn't found this on the gimp.
 Who can help me ?

Try out the 'Newsprint' plug-in included in Gimp 1.1.x. It should give
the desired output. If you've got Gimp 1.0.x then you have to download
the plug-in at http://registry.gimp.org.

CU, Michael

That was my initial thought but I tried the plugin and it was no workie!
Now I've seen samples of that effect generated by that plugin but the
default settings do nothing and fifteen minutes of messing with it did not
help.

Suggestion to plugin maintainer:  Please have default settings that
actually demonstrate what the plugin is supposed to do. (most gimp plugins
are pretty good about this)

Thanks!

Maybe 15 minutes are not enough. ;-)

Draw your shape (b/w), blur it really good and then apply the newsprint
plug-in with about 80 LPI and 10 pixel cell size. All angles (red,
green, blue) should be set to the same value (!!! - 35 degrees look
good).

Now fill a new layer with the desired color. Add a layer mask. Paste the
newsprinted stuff into it. That's all...

Have a look at a tutorial of mine describing making 'techno text' using
this technic at the Gimp User Group [http://gug.sunsite.dk].
