I can barely read the black text with a gray background that my Gimp is using.

How can I change that?

Thanks.

I can not figure how to attach an image?

Hello everyone, simply I'm able to make lines as shown in the first photo but I want them like second photo. Is there any way to do them by using gimp features? I just want to create an image like in the second photo. How can I make that? is there any source/video that I can use? thanks in advance.

Hi there, I'm trying to save a relatively large image in Gimp as a JPG and the size of the JPG is super big. For comparison, please see attached images showing file size for the Gimp JPG vs another JPG (not from Gimp) of the same dimensions, but about 32 MB smaller in size. Any ideas as to why the Gimp JPG version is so large and what can be done to decrease it? Thanks!

A few old photo restoration libraries on GitHub. Maybe someone will make it work

Not sure how to use them without making the photos leave the computer

I read that Linked layers are just like Smart Objects in Photoshop. And it is supposed to be available in 3.0.

Does 2.99.12 have this feature? I am not sure where to find it or use it. Thanks.

Hello All,

I'm having the following difficulty:

I have several layers, they are all the same height but differ in width;
All are now aligned vertically;

I want to align them horizontally so that they are juxtaposed; as close together as possible without overlapping.

Ideally, the top layer should be on the left of all layers, followed by the layer below it on its right, and so on until the last layer is positioned at the other end of the horizontal (on the right).

With Inkscape there is the option:
"Move objects as little as possible so that their boundings boxes do not overlap."

I tried it with the Alignment Tool, but I never really understood this tool, and I didn't get that kind of alignment.

I thought the "Distribute targets evenly in the horizontal " option would do the job, but not even close.

How could I achieve this alignment optimally?

Thx!

Hi there,
We have a piece of art we're trying to edit and then save and print- We would like it to be a certain size but, as is, there is a gap between the size of the artwork and the 'background'. We would like to change the background color to match the border of the artwork, however, are unsure if the background color will actually save and print since it's not the same layer (or maybe not a layer at all?). Does anyone know if the background color will in fact save as displayed and print that way? Please see attached image for reference-

Thanks!

I recently downloaded resynthesizer for Gimp and I encountered a problem with the transition from the resynthesizer folder to the plug-ins folder. 
Every file goes into the plug-ins folder except for the resynthesizer.exe file, the system gives me this messagge: "you need to give administrator permissions to move to the folder" and if I click continue it says "authorization is required to perform the operation" try again or cancel.
When I try to open the file it gives me three errors that saying it can't find three "dll" files that I installed.



Can you please help me?
Thanks

Hi all - hope someone can help!

After I import 3 monochrome .tif files as separate layers and go to the Colours->Components>Compose i only see the top layer to select for each channel not the other 2 layers. Tried opening as layers; openeing separately and copying as layers, etc but no luck. This process works on other laptop with GIMP. This is a fresh install of GIMP. Is there a setting I am missing or ...? thx
