I have had a file sent to me, but I am having problems opening it on Gimp. It was originally a PSD file, which I put through a PSD convertor and I saved it as a PNG file. But when I open it, all I get is the front picture, there are no individual files in it? Is there a way around this, or does Gimp have problems reading this sort of file? Thanks.

Hey everyone, new here to the forum but have been using Gimp for 17 years (since I was 13)


I hope this is the right place to pose this question.

I had recently stumbled across a Photoshop tutorial (I know, taboo and heretical) but it displays how to create a square image and turn it into a specific style of a circle.

Normally that would be pretty easy, but it's the way the end product looks that I'm having trouble achieving in Gimp even with G'MIC. And it's been driving me crazy.

This is the video, the content I'm speaking on begins at 1:02 and ends at roughly 2:30

I'll attach an image to the sort of final result. It began as a square picture of some clouds that turned into an inward circle and I've been wracking my brain as to how I can achieve that effect in The Gimp.


Can anyone help me with this? Suggestions? Tips? Tutorials? Anything? (Again I'm new so I'm unsure if this is, in fact, the right place to be asking questions regarding tips and techniques inside of The Gimp but it seems to be from the other threads I noticed)

Thank you all so much for your time and help! I have some wild ideas I'd love to try if I can get this circular portal looking shape down.

Warm Regards,
AU:01

Is there a way to reduce the "physical" size of an image to bring the margins in so that's it the minimum size to show everything?  I am converting stamps and signatures (separately) from CAD to jpeg.  The sheet size i'm using Letter (8.5x11).  I used GIMP's Bimp plugin to to a batch image manipulation on the stamps to bring them all down to approx. 2"x2", but i have 30 or so signatures which all differ in height and length.  I'd like to reduce each signature image from Letter down to as small as possible, getting rid of all the empty white space.

I'm new to GIMP and am using v2.10.18

Greetings folks--
When I cut out something from a picture, say a person, I want to feather the edges so it looks a little more natural.  Does anyone have any idea how to do that?  Currently I am using a path to do the cut, although I would be open to other suggestions.
Thanks in advance for you help.

as you can see my quick mask can't select parts of the image properly. Any ideas?

I use GIMP 2.10.18.
I want to export an .xcf file project (for a brochure) so that the content in each layer group is combined onto a single PDF page. That way the entire project will become a multi-page PDF document ready for download and printing from a commercial website.

Using the current functionalities I can only export to a PDF with only the topmost layer-group shown on it.
On GIMP I can hide the topmost layer-group content and then I see the page underneath shown on the main GIMP window. But whenever I try exporting that single page to PDF, all I get is a PDF with the topmost page alone in it.

How should I configure things so that I can get each layer-group to become a single page in a PDF file ?

A quick jigsaw animation I did with some existing scripts

1. Create a jigsaw pattern apth with ofn-jigsaw
   
2. Edit>Stroke path on a transparent layer (4px width minimum)
   
3. Layer>Transparency>Alpha to selection then discard the layer
   
4. Move to the image layer, and [Delete] t make the jigsaw transparent
   
5. Extract the pieces to layers with ofn-extract-objects
   
6. Add a background, export to animated GIF (all layers to Combine) and serve hot
   

   

Hi 
I am very new to GIMP. I have followed a tutorial to create a jigsaw in GIMP. I have completed the jigsaw and now would like to export it into Articulate 360. 

My goal is that as the learners complete sections they uncover puzzle pieces and at the end of the course they get to complete the puzzle. Please can you advise how I export my jigsaw out of GIMP. Is there a particuar format I need to use?

Thank you 

Kerry
