  Editing a letter
Posted by: X3nion - 09-04-2019, 05:34 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

Dear community!

I'm using GIMP 2.10 and I've got a question.
Therefore, I uploaded a picture below.
My plan is to make the shown letter "O" more bold than it is to a custom thickness.
How can I do this, so that it gets regularly bolder?

For an angled letter like "E" this was very easy, but how can I do this with a round letter?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you and would be very thankful for every hint!

Kind regards,

Question Windows ported GIMP 2.10.12 jpg EXIF preservation
Posted by: Turn2Linux - 09-04-2019, 01:27 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

First installed the GIMP 2.10.12 and preserved EXIF through post-production.
Now suddenly it scrubs the EXIF.


I don't remember chaging any setup on camera or in software.

Any help in trying to rectify the situation will be appreciated.

Checked - It happens between opening a jpg and exporting it (without doing anything to the image).

  Recreating an image
Posted by: Viceroy07 - 09-04-2019, 12:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to imitate this image. So far I have created this but I am still not satisfied with the results. I have cloud brushes installed but I feel like this requires more tools to be used. I do not know what other tools or in what order to use them. So far I have been using brush and smudge and adjusting opacity, hardness, size and toughness. I also want to have this ''misty/foggy'' background behind clouds.

How can I achieve best results like in the first image? What steps do I need to follow?

  Can't open a file from a symbolic-linked folder
Posted by: mcpent - 09-04-2019, 10:02 AM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (2)

Hi everybody,
I use GIMP since very early versions and I love it.

I have an issue between Gimp and the Linux File System (ext4).

In my home I have a folder symbolic-linked to an other folder outside the home. I have set the privilege as rw:rw:r and I'm the owner. When I open a file form that directory Gimp says that can't open it because it can't read it. If I open it with an other software like inkscape or gThumb for instance, it works just fine.

Anyone as any idea?

Thank you anyhow Smile

Photo Getting lighting effects around an arch
Posted by: Darth_Sceptaurus - 09-03-2019, 05:25 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi all,

I am trying to get some highlights/shadows going on around this arch on my doorway, similar to what I have on the trim you see above.  I am not finding any simple way to do it, and in fact with every way I have tried I've ended up running into roadblocks.  Can anyone recommend the best, easiest, or most straightforward way to do this?

  text on curve
Posted by: Guillaume - 09-02-2019, 08:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Perhap someone more adept at GIMP can shed some light on a little problem.  I am doing the "text along a curve" thing, but soon get stopped in my track (or curve?)  When I click on  "text along path", the text gets obliterated  by a bunch of  "air bubbles" as you can see in the attachment.  Why do I get this and how can I prevent it happening?

  Gimp, resizing and quality loss
Posted by: rebislori - 09-02-2019, 09:20 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hi to everyone, i'm new to this forum and relatively new to the world of graphic manipulation.

I know this subject has been treated many times (in fact, i think i read all of the post about this very same problem), but still i can't make it work for me. And yes, i know also that probably i read the solution many times, but at this point i'm not able to understand it.

I'm aware that when i resize a rasterized image i get some degradation but:

1)Since i switched to V2.10 this got more and more noticeable. I mean, A LOT.

2)I have to create some banners and facebook image with my logo (wich i don't have anymore as vectors). I rebuild it from scratch with inkscape, but for whatever reason, in any format i try to import it into my gimp project, as soon as i scale it down, it becomes a tornado of pixels.

Thanks to everyone for your patience, end excuse my english.

  Gradients between paths
Posted by: christianrpg - 09-01-2019, 11:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I have GIMP 2.10.10 on Windows.

Is there a way to apply a gradient from one (closed) path that terminates around another (closed) path. I am attempting to show elevation on a map and I can assign a certain color to specific distances above/below sea level. But I cannot see how to use gradients to blend these colors so that the terrain looks more "natural". The gradient would need to follow both the contours of the outer path (perhaps as the background color) and use the contours of the inner path (the foreground color) as its limit. Or is there an alternative way to do this? Thank you!
