Hi there,

I'm going to describe the problem specifically.

I'm making T-shirt designs using two layers.

Layer 1: a template with different colours and designs for various T-shirt types.
Layer 2: a generic layer with creases and other details to make Layer 1 look like a real T-shirt.

Sometimes the design on Layer 1 is a bit jaggy. So what would I like to do?
I'd like to create a new layer (Layer 3) that I does some anti-aliasing (most likely by burring certain areas) on Layer 1.

So my Layers panel would look like this:

Layer 3 (transparent layer with blur effect)
Layer 2 (the template which makes the T-shirts look like real - 30% semi transparent in multiplying mode)
Layer 1 (T-shirts in various colours and designs)


I've been loving GIMP for 15 years now, and Googled a lot for an answer, but I still have no idea if this is possible.
I could do the anti-aliasing on each T-shirts on Layer 1, but it would be time consuming and not standardized at all.

Hi,

I tried various avatars. 64x64, 128x128 etc. None of them gets displayed. I am on the default theme. Not that it matters, but thought of reporting.

I have several gif images that I want to combine them into one single image while
the 'product' is still a gif. The dimensions of the different single gif files are similar.
How can I do this??

I use the export option for making GIF. Sadly, the quality of GIF images is low. There are burrs in GIF indicating low quality. I export from Inkscape with decent quality and I would like the GIF to be of the same quality. Is there any way out  ? Thanks.

In simple words, I want GIF frames to keep the same quality as imported into GIMP.

Hello everyone,

I've been playing around with the maze generator inside gimp 2.10 creating mazes for FPS game im working on. what i was wondering is there a simple way to have gimp auto generate the mazes as in saying i want 10 mazes with the only thing changing be the random seed. then have them save them selfs as has png to a folder.   

Thanks for any help on this subject.

   
After initial MAC startup, all type in modules are gibberish with tiny reference numbers etc. Whaz up!

I've started having problems when using the pen tool. I usually click and drag to get smoother arcs when using the tool. I've done it this way for 25 years with both photoshop and Gimp. Now, most of the time I'm working, the anchor comes off the line, or the handles come off of the anchor at angles making a mess of my path. I then have to remake the path with just clicks and get a unsmooth path as a result. Any ideas?

I used the rectangle tool to make a selection like you would the path tool, I figured this was easier, but the border doesn't go away even when I click select>none and have a different tool pressed. Should I just not have used the rectangle tool then? Is the border impossible to get rid of?

Hello

This is my first post here, I'm a complete newbie to Gimp. I use it sometimes to "posterize" pictures I have taken with my digital camera. That's all  I do.

I was looking at a youtube video last week, the guy is restoring old machinery, and used GIMP to clean up a image he had scan. I would like to know HOW to do the same, can someone help me. I'm more of a garage guy than an artist

You can find his technic at 10:05.  of this video :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWikGne44F0
thank you

I was trying to make beautify which is a plugin for gimp 2.10.16 I got the error: package lcms2 was not found in the pkg-config search path

I then did a search of lcms2 and got:

Code:

I found something called "liblcms2.so.2" which may be what I need or do I have to install lcms2?  If what I have is what I need then am I going to have to add something to pkg-config search path?  I, obviously, am clueless so but figured I had better get some advise instead of charging ahead.

Thank you........................
