  Change the skin/hair/eyes color of a character
Posted by: Nico - 07-25-2021, 10:34 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hello it's me ! (again)

I would like to change the skin/hair/eyes color of characters. I have an exemple with the skin color, white to blue and the eyes color, yellow to blue.
I tried with Hue-Saturation and the result is pretty good BUT I don't know how to erase the blue on the hair. I tried to cut out the hair but it's hard because of the several thin hair on the face. I tried to use Layer Mask but I can't because of the same reason.
In a general way, it's hard for me to change the skin/hair/eyes color on a character so if you have a solution, I'm listening !

The original :

Thank you in advance !

  How to add grayscale value to alpha channel
Posted by: Skinny - 07-25-2021, 10:14 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

The grayscale value of the alpha channel in my DDS file determines the extent to which the body of the car, in my racing game, reflects the sun.
How can I assign a grayscale value, varying from white to black, to the alpha channel in Gimp?

  Panorama with gimp
Posted by: denzjos - 07-25-2021, 09:49 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (4)

Panorama software, lots of it are available. But can it be done with gimp? Yes there are some plugins, but let's try it with gimp in combination with Ottia Tuota tools. In this example 2 photos made handhold are used. The photos should overlap a lot like the ones here. Place them in a canvas that is big enough to place the two photos side by side. Make two paths (4 points) referring to the same information on both photos. 
   
Use the Filters / Distorts / Perspective transform / Perspective transform - 4 points to 4 points plugin from Ottia Tuota. Et voilà, the photos are nicely stitched.
     
Now use the gimp Colours / Exposure tool to match the color exposure and use the erase tool with a soft brush to blend the two layers. Flatten the image and use the 3D transform tool and the crop tool to adjust the result.

  How to Move an Item without Moving the Whole Layer
Posted by: bozo - 07-25-2021, 01:07 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I come across this issue frequently but am too freaking stupid to work out how to word the question.
I want to move a single element on the canvas.
I duplicate the layer so I can move around a second rectangle:


Then I attempt to reposition the second layer that contains the second rectangle...

But when I do that the ENTIRE layer (element + background) is moved.

Please dispel this simple yet chronic blindspot of mine.
And thank you.

  Removing flash/lights and glare spots
Posted by: richiie - 07-24-2021, 03:54 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hey gimp fam!

I was able to take some bike pics with a good friend of mine however the flash on my camera and the streetlights in the background left some glare spots and distracting points. 

Anyone know how to remove them in gimp and what tool to use?

Thanks Smile

  python-fu: Exiting properly in batche mod with Gimp 2.99
Posted by: mrbookman - 07-23-2021, 08:47 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (3)

Greetings.

I should first mention that this problem has to do with the new API.
Due to certain constraints, I have to use python 3, and so I've been using Gimp 2.99.

https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-What-i...-batch-job

I've tried to adapt the method shown in the thread above for python3, adding a Gimp.quit() at the end of the do_it function.

This is the command I'm using.

Code:
gimp-console-2.99  -idf --batch-interpreter python-fu-eval -b "import sys;sys.path=['.']+sys.path;import backrem;backrem.do_it()"

This is the message I get.


Code:
plug-in 'python-eval.py' aborted before sending its procedure return values
batch command experienced a calling error:
Procedure 'python-fu-eval' returned no return values

Other information:
  1. If I remove 'Gimp.quit()' from the actual script and add '-b "Gimp.quit()"' to the command, I still get an error.
  2. If I remove it from both the script and the command, the process does not terminate.

(I'm aware that this isn't code, but I couldn't find the appropriate BBCode tags)

  gimp vs imag-r
Posted by: lt72884 - 07-22-2021, 11:07 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

Hello all. I use the following website for processing images for my ortu laser master 20 watt desktop laser machine.

ImagR - Prepare Photos for Laser Engraving - 5 Steps (imag-r.com)

the one thing i really like about this website is the fact that it has an auto adjust feature.

when you first load the image into the website, it auto converts to greyscale, then you crop it, resize it to the dims you want along with a DPI of 254. Once it has been resized, you can either adjust brightness, contrast, sharpen, etc manually, or hit the auto button. 

does gimp2.10 have a simular feature so i can process my images in gimp for laser engraving? 

I mainly use imag-r because it is super fast and has all the stuff built into it and its FREE!!!

thanks

  Print dialog box too large
Posted by: OzSco - 07-22-2021, 03:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

hi all,

HELP  Huh  please..

When i go to print an image the print dialog box is too large (and mostly empty) and i cannot see the options at the bottom, presumably print and cancel. The Dialog box is too big and i cannot click and drag it enough to see these options. How can i change the size of the box?

cheers

Oz
