Hello Everyone,

I am Rajesh from India. I am a beginner in the field of image editing. I was searching the internet for cool GIMP effects and I came across this one (image attached).

Can anybody please tell me how this effect (image attached) is achieved. It will be of a great help if a link to the detailed tutorial on this one is given.

Please help.

Thanking you all in advance.

Hi Rajesh,
I commented on your post you made on pixels.us. Here is how this is done it with Roller (3.20). Developing Roller is a hobby of mine.

1. A Table model is used to place the images. The cell table has 5 rows and 5 columns. It might not be a Table model, but a Stack model because the offsets appear to be progressive.
2. A single image is 'sliced' into 5 rows and 5 columns.
3. The sliced offsets are a produced by modifying the Shift settings for the image.
4. The shadows are a drop shadow, which Roller can apply under a Tri-Shadow image-effect.
5. The light effect over the sliced images and background can be done by configuring the Gradient Light settings.

1) Open image and add guides as required.

2) Use the plug-in ofn-guillotine-layer.py to guillotine the image into individual layers.
Layers > Guillotine

3) Use the plug-in jiggle-visible-layers.py to jiggle the layers.

4) Create drop shadows as required
Filters > Light and Shadow > Drop Shadow
or Drop Shadow (legacy)

Not really the same but this is what I tried with a black and white photo :
G'Mic-Qt / Arrays&Tiles / Tiled Rotation
G'Mic-Qt / Deformations / Distort Lens
Add a blurred B&W layer as background

(or G'Mic-QT / Deformations / Quadrangle)

Indeed Filters ➤ G'Mic-Qt ➤ Arrays&Tiles ➤ Tiled Rotation is, IMHO, the easiest and straight forward way to do it (huge fan of G'MIC here   )
I did a different play just after the G'MIC's tiled rotation, just to give one more option  Filters ➤ Distorts ➤ Lens distortions
BTW @denzjos, I got a lot of fun with the G'MIC's distort lens (I did forget this filter) and its ability to move the white dot, thanks @denzjos big thumb up
