I have scanned an old recordcover with my DIN-A4 scanner.
The cover is bigger than the scanner so i had to scan it in two parts.

Now i try to make a composite of it, but the images are not exactly the same colour/value.
I tried eyeing it with the Curves or Levels Tool but i cant get it right.

Is it just a matter of value, or do i need to adjust all the RGB channels ?
My guess is, the differences come form the scanners light, so that seems to tell me its just the value that needs tweaking.


I also tried the method with sample points, but i can never get it right....

Any advice, or is there a way to automate this ?

Hi,

I uploaded a small personal avatar image (PNG, 1 kb) from my computer, received the message "successful" and "This is your avatar". However, nothing to see

How can I upload an avatar, please?

Thanks,

Hi,

I am using Gimp 2.8.18 on Debian 9 64-bit Gnome 3.22.2.

I use Pencil (and Paintbrush) and Eraser fairly often, and I find it inconvenient to set each tool differently (e.g., the size) each time I use them. Would it be possible to set, say, the size of the Pencil to 2 and the size of the Eraser to 20 permanently, I mean for the ongoing session?

This would eliminate the need to set the sizes anew each time I use a different tool.

Thanks

Hi,

I am using Gimp 2.8.18 on Debian 9 64-bit Gnome 3.22.2.

My problem: I load a JPG image, add a new layer (fill type: white), paint on the layer, but when I erase some paintstrokes I always erase also the white layer background getting regions of checkerboard pattern.

How can I add a layer I can erase on without damaging the background?

Thanks,

A picture is worth a thousand words:



I'm not objecting to how the strands of hair keep changing; that’s unavoidable, because I hand-drew them in each frame based on his head position, which is constantly shifting.

The problem, as you have probably already guessed, is the haze of orange dots that are like shadows of hair strands from previous frames. What are they, and how do I get rid of them? Much gratitude to anyone who can help me!

Can someone tell me how I blend out to white?

Problem: I've learned how to adjust colour levels and make the background become white.
This is perfect... except most of the time, around the edges... there are bits of grey. These show when the placed on a pure white background.

Is there some way of making sure the edges of the background is pure white?
I was thinking of a gradient blend somehow?

ELSE... am I doing something wrong in the first place...?

Thanks.

Hi:

I am designing a line of t-shirts. I already added text to the image and now want to add some artwork.  Doing it myself would take too long so I have decided to just use clip art.  But when I try to add clip art by following a tutorial on YouTube, I can't move the clip art.  I followed the YouTube tutorial to the letter and re-watched it several times.  They suggest going to google images and looking for an image there.  Then it is a matter of doing control alt then print screen.  Next they state that you must past this image onto windows paint and then cut out the stuff from the image you don't want and then paste what you do want onto gimp. I clicked on edit and then paste and then "as an image".  I did this and it does upload the clip art but when I try to move the clip art it does not move.  Also the image is now a lot smaller than what it was before. It needs to be bigger so that it looks proportional to the text that I created. Can somebody please help me???

Hi guys

so i need to resize a the piece of a image i need, so i measure the image (20,5 x 16,72 Cm)  and create a new file with that size so i can paste and resize later, i proceed and the image end with (4,7 x 6 Cm) which is what i need it.
Now i try to paste my new resize image to the other file and the boody thing now measure 13,58 Cm.
So any idea why the image resize when pasting ?

Pretty much what it says. I was trying to make a pixellated image of a 2000x3000 photo yesterday, using a video tutorial. It requires duplicating the original image 3 times, then using the shear-tool, set the top layer X magnitude to 1223 then pixelleating and setting it to -1223 and adjusting opacity before moving to the middle layer and  doing similar things.

After the pixellation part on the first layer, the shear-tool just stopped doing anything when I hand-type the number. I've shut it down, restarted computer, uninstalled and reinstalled and it just doesn't do anything. I've tried it on a different image and still nothing. If I use the arrows, it works for now, but hand-inserting numbers just makes it appear it's calculating something, but in reality, it doesn't do anything.

I'm running GIMP on a Samsung-laptop (SF311) and a WIN10. Still using GIMP 2.8
Should I just keep my fingers crossed that nothing else gets broken or is there a way to fix this?

When I run GIMP-bin at /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS, I get lots of error messages.

Eg.
