Hi everyone,

I've been working on an open source plugin that brings ML powered background removal directly into GIMP 3.
Everything runs locally on your own machine. The plugin talks to a local withoutBG server (Docker or the macOS app), so your images never leave your computer.

Features
  • Works with GIMP 3
  • Fully open source (The model running on your computer is with open weights)
  • Runs locally
  • Creates a non destructive layer mask instead of permanently deleting the background
  • Supports macOS and Linux today (Windows should also work with a local Docker backend)

The workflow is:
  1. Open an image.
  2. Go to Tools > WithoutBG > Remove Background…
  3. The plugin generates a matte and applies it as a layer mask, so you can continue refining it using normal GIMP tools.

Documentation: Source code: I'd appreciate any feedback on:
  • Installation experience
  • UI/UX
  • Performance
  • Feature requests
  • Bugs or compatibility issues

I'm actively developing it and would be happy to improve it based on feedback from GIMP users.

If you find the plugin useful, I'd also appreciate a ⭐ on GitHub. It helps other GIMP users discover the project and motivates continued development.]]>

I need to use the GIMP software to lengthen his torso, and shorten his legs without changing his overall head-to-toe height and without touching his head and face.
I asked artificial intelligence (Google Gemini) about this and it suggested the use of the Cage Transform tool:
https://i.ibb.co/ynwDCLv5/zz-GIMP02-02.jpg

However, when I do this, it creates some crack lines or fault lines (or whatever you may call them):
https://i.ibb.co/pB5Zxch6/zz-GIMP02-03.jpg

How can I avoid this problem?

And first of all, is the cage Transform tool even the right tool to use for this?
How can I correct the disproportionate body image of this man?
What tool to use and how?

Please advise.
Thanks.

one question - can we use such a image - on a website - and do add some links from certain points. 
is  this doable - can we do something like this?
 
  hmmm - i will try to do that by creating an imagemap.
 

https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_images_imagemap.asp

see the image: 


.png   ####_the_Dots__1123.png (Size: 64.82 KB / Downloads: 147)

 Note: i only need links  from - let us say 10 points - that lead to other webpages. Is this possible?! 

what is aimed: i want to use the map in a wordpress page - and certain points should have a link to other pages.
can we do that!?



ps. Since i want to do such thinks in WordPress - i guess the following plugins may be of great help:

Draw Attention    Very popular and user-friendly. You can draw hotspots directly onto the image.    Focuses on ease of use; perfect for infographics and floor plans.

ImageLinks    Allows you to link areas of an image to links, videos, or other content.    Offers a drag-and-drop interface and extensive customization options.

so i hope this may be useful - also for others who are heading into the same  direction

ps. keep up this great forum -it rocks [img]data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7[/img]  [img]data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7[/img]

I ported some scripts that I had gotten off the registry in times gone past and which are part
of my workflow. I don't know if they are still being maintained and I contacted the authors
to see if I can send them the changes or if they moved on from them.

In the meantime, if you are using them or want to try them out, you can get them from this
github repo [1].

You can check them out on github. 
  • silicosaur (Baráth Gábor) film effect filters (only works on 3.2 due to bug in 3.0 re spline-curves)
    • silicosaur-photofx-velvia (Fujifilm Velvia 50)
    • silicosaur-photofx-provia (Fujichrome Provia chrome)
    • silicosaur-photofx-portra (Kodak Portra)
    • silicosaur-photofx-crossprocess (Cross process (x-pro) effect)
  •  Ryan Burnside filters for adding different kinds of guidelines (percent, golden-rule, centered,...)
    •  divide-thirds
The first commit I had made was the 2.10 version so you could see the changes to port them to 3.x. and use that as an example in porting other legacy scripts. Alas,  as I'm writing this, I realize that is lost in all but one plug-in because I squashed the branch commits for the other ones.

This was an interesting experience, learning scheme and GIMP plug-in's API.

Enjoy!

Here's what happened:
'While being tested internally in an enclosed sandbox, the model gained internet access – effectively an escape route – by locating a vulnerability that had not been discovered before.
The agent then hacked Hugging Face, which is a database of AI models, to locate technology that would help it pass the hacking evaluation'.

When I read this I asked myself 'how predictable was this escape and why were they testing it's hacking abilities at all'? Is this just the beginning of 'rogue AI' because it could get very expensive to repair the damage it can potentially do.

My grandmother had a 1920s photo album that she gave to my uncle before she passed. My uncle let me borrow the album to digitize photos for posterity and to share with the "clan." The album's pictures are so old and fragile that I could not remove them from their pages without destroying them. I wound up using a flatbed, full color scanner and scanning whole pages at 300 DPI. I would have scanned them at 600 DPI, but scanning 75 two-sided pages with two-to-three pictures per page would have taken twice the time and twice the digital footprint. Even at 300 DPI it still took me a few hours to carefully scan the album. Plus, you cannot improve image quality that did not exist in the first place.

I have already rotated pages 180° for the ones I scanned upside down to prevent damage to the album, and rough-cropped individual images down to their far borders. Now I need to straighten them out before I crop them further or use GIMP to remove the old-fashioned picture "corners." Most of the corners are (were) black, some brown, and quite a few were red after late 1928/early 1929. Pictures should be straightened out before cropping further or removing picture corners to help reduce anomalies. Not all, but most pictures need to be straightened by less than a couple degrees of rotation.

Does GIMP have a built-in tool, or can I download a plugin for v3.0 that will allow me to straighten pictures, so they truly are perpendicular?

I am new to using GIMP, but I am no stranger to photo, video, or audio editing. Thanks in advance for any helpful information.]]>

I am having issues trying to print to a Custom Paper size. I am trying to print to 8.5" x 17" paper. I am getting really frustrated after days of trying to figure this out.

I am using Gimp 3.2.4
Windows 11 Home
Canon TS7720 DeskJet Printer
64 Bit

Here are the steps I have done thus far:

1) in the printers settings I created a new paper size that is custom and set to 8.5" x 17"
2) in Gimp I have my canvas at 8.5" x 17"
3) in gimp I selected the custom 8.5 x 17 paper size, printer paper size is set to "same as page size"
4) In Gimp Print-Image Settings I checked "Ignore Page Margins"
5) In gimp Print-Image Settings I try to change the Size to 8.5"x17" but it will not go above 5.5"x11"

Something I have noticed and not sure if they are relevant to the problem. Every time I go into printer preferences inside of gimp it does not keep the page size I had set even though I checked always print with current settings. It reverts back to Letter 8.5" x 11". The box I had checked for Always print with current settings is no longer checked. I am wondering if this could be the problem. If so how do I fix it.

Thank you in advance!

Something I have noticed and not sure if they are relevant to the problem. Every time I go into printer preferences inside of gimp it does not keep the page size I had set even though I checked always print with current settings. It reverts back to Letter 8.5" x 11". The box I had checked for Always print with current settings is no longer checked. I am wondering if this could be the problem. If so how do I fix it.

Thank you in advance!
