I'm doing a lot of old B/W photo restoring and some colouring. Using GIMP 3.2.4. To make selections in an image I use a mouse, but I'm finding I'm just not dextrous enough to draw intricate outlines/selections in photos with fine detail, like trees and leaves etc..

So I thought about a Wacom pen tablet, and they're going cheap near me. But I need to know if that tablet is good for that kind of work. Will I get good control and be able to track the pen around every nook and cranny to make a selection?

I'm not concerned about a lot of other functions, as long as it's useful for that fine detail.

Anybody have any advice or comments? Thanks.

I have installed and reinstalled GIMP 2.10.8, but the panels/toolbars are not visible. I have tried pressing Tab, but that did not show the panels/toolbars either. 

Creating a new file opens a new window for some reason, but the new window does not have panels or toolbars either.

Not often I look at reddit. I find most of the posts trivial. However occasionally something worthwhile.

A remake of Ofnuts plugin for Gimp 3.  Looks very familiar.

   

Better than struggling with Inkscape.

Some smartphone cameras allow you to capture a full panorama of a scene. However, the start and end points of the panorama rarely align seamlessly. To achieve a reasonably seamless result, you can try the following:
- split the panorama at a point where the image is not complex
- swap the positions of the two sections (2 layers)
- shift the 2 layers and use the 'Handle Transform Tool' to optimize the join
Ensure that the two ends of the panorama where it was split are not distorted.
Next, use the crop tool to cut away the unimportant part of the canvas, but be careful not to cut off any parts of the left or right side.
Use the FSPViewer to look at such a panorama.
   

Hi:

Crazy question: Does anyone still have the resynthesizer plugin, version 1.0?

Thank you very much.

I am just finding my way around v3.1.2, and ran in to an issue,
 Namely:
Now, everytime I open an image file, .JPG etc, as a layer.
Instead of seeing it shown in the right hand panel as the layer i get three layers  there named RED, GREEN, BLUE, and cannot seem to get rid of them and go back to the layers list I am used to?
I even re-installed gimp, to no avail !?

I have a problem with the fill bucket tool.

I scanned in a pencil drawing, removed the white background with color to alpha, and now I'm coloring it in.

The first bucket fill works like a charm, see screenshot.     

However WHATEVER I do next, (could be creating a new layer, or using another tool, or select something....anything.) the image gets distorted afterwards. The distortions also stay when saving/restarting gimp. (see screenshot 2)     

What am I missing here... or is this a bug?

Is there a way in GIMP to take an existing image and simulate the effect of placing a sheet of glass on top of the image (viz., a photo in a picture frame)?
