GIMP :: 2.8 Always Goes Through Startup Process?
Jul 19, 2013Is this Querying all the plugins each time, normal? It takes quite a while to boot as a result. Great program otherwise.

It's probably something to do with the brushes 'cause when the folder (for the brushes) was still empty; Gimp started without any problems. And now, when the brushes are there, Gimp keeps on crashing. I'm 100% sure that this never happened to me when I was using the 2.6 version. URL....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've had Gimp 2.8.6 for awhile now but suddenly within the past week it has begun to freeze during the startup process. It will get to 'loading fonts' and then it will stop. I don't have any extra fonts, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, and I've also tried installing previous versions and then updating them but nothing seems to be working.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just installed the Gimp 2.4.7 Mac Tiger PPC (with the Help Files) on an iMac G4/800, 768 ram, Nvidia GeForce2 MX (32mb). I was using 2.6.8 but this is obviously the right version for my computer specs. Just a couple of Gimp startup questions. How can I start the Gimp without the Splash Screen? Also, when the Gimp starts, there are 2 long, rectangular boxes. How can I get the "Layers, Channels, Paths" etc. box not to be part of the Gimp startup? Then, in the Main Menu box, I only want it to open only as far as the Paintbrush Configuration area. So when I start the Gimp, I just want the small Main Menu box to open.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLast month, I've been trying GIMP. It works fine, 2.8 one. But, yesterday, I just wanted to open it, actually the startup loads well, but somehow, stopped while attempt to loading fonts, so, I force to close it with task manager. And opening it again. My gimp startup doesn't load earlier, and suddenly loading fonts once the startup opened up. A little moment, my Gimp was not responding, and make the whole WINDOWS NOT RESPONDING. The only way I can, is just shutting it down, forced it, by plugging off the power source
little note, I'm running Gimp 2.8 inside of 32 bit windows 7.
i run Gimp 2.8 on Windows 7 and when i try to open Gimp the startup loads halfway and then stops responding when it gets to 'fonts'.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a new (cheap) Lenovo Notebook that came preconfigured with Windows 8.
With some effort, I have configured it to have an administrator account and a normal user account.
Today I downloaded the latest GIMP and installed it on the administrator account. The program starts fine (albeit painfully slowly) and seems to run normally on the administrator account. However, in the normal user account, Gimp gets part way through loading and crashes as shown in this image:
what the error message: "The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an usual way" might mean?
I installed Gimp 2.8 for Windows tonight on an XP SP3 system and it hangs for more than 30min when starting (never completes initializing). Gimp 2.8 takes 50% CPU and 184Mb RAM and sits "Gathering Data" with no further progress. I end up killing the process.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled into a fresh directory with no change. I gave up and tried to reinstall 2.6 and get almost the same issue except RAM usage goes up to 550Mb and it sits at the startup screen.
I experienced this issue with Gimp 2.6 whenever I had a lot of brushes in the brush folder. The only way I found to avoid the problem was to have less brushes in it. As a result, I never got to really use all of them like I had intended to.
The current version I'm using is 2.8. I updated Gimp because I saw the tagging system. I figured it'd be easier to locate the brushes I want to use. The program worked fine up until I added more folders to the brush folder to take advantage of the tagging system. Now the start-up freezes and crashes when it's updating the tagging cache.
In general, Gimp seems to get mad at me when I add a crap ton more than it's comfortable with.
When I start up my GIMP in windows, it indexes the fonts every first time that I start after a reboot.I am using windows 7, is there anyway to tell gimp not to index the fonts ?

I currently use UFRaw so: What advantages does Darktable have over UFRaw?
I need to find out what process is employed to separate an image from its background. An image from one of the image services for example. I need for the actual image to be shed of the often white background in order to better work with an existing background on the graphic. It seems straight forward enough, I just have limited computer graphic chops.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a folder of 50 images. The images are all different sizes and dimensions (ranging from about 400x600 to 1600x900).
Separately, I have a little design on a canvas in HD dimensions (1920x1080).
The end goal is just to be able to lay out all the photos on the center of the canvas as 50 new individual images (with the HD dimensions of the background canvas).
Obviously, to load in 50 unique images and then export each of them would take a long time. So I was hoping that there is a way to both (a) automatically combine multiple unique images to a common background, and then (b) export them all.
Is there a way to do batch process of converting .jpg or .tif images from RGB to CMYK?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI love to draw, I would like to use my drawings on some iPhone game. I am wondering how I can process the drawings I scanned into a high definition image? I do my drawings in old fashion paper and pencil way, once The drawings were scanned, the resulting images look very rough, for example, the lines are showing the pencil marks, a straight line has a few bumps in the middle, and circles seem a bit off, is there a way in Gimp to do some fine tuning on the images?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a series of images with alpha channels what I want to separate out from the images and save as a new file with a filename suffix.
For example I have a series of folders containing thousands of images:
These files are filename.dds files (I already have the .dds plugin to read them but you could use .png for example).
I load the image, goto Colours - > Components - > Decompose :
In the dialogue I enter color model : Alpha, tick decompose to layers - > OK
I then export the file as filename_a.jpg
Is there a way to batch this process for the 1000's of images I have?
Is there any way of setting up an automated process/es? What I want to try to achieve is to move a layer incrementally along an axis,by say a few pixels at a time,whilst saving the frame generated,up to say 20 frames or more ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow the PMS color palettes "simulate" on screen how the color will print on different substrates (glossy vs matte vs uncoated paper). That's great for comps, but if you convert it to CMYK to print it, and the values are representing a "simulated" color it won't look correct (by that I mean come close to matching the spot color). For example, the uncoated palette simulates the color by making them appear a bit washed out on screen - pretty good visual simulation. But it might do so by adding black and cyan to orange for example, etc. - effectively dulling the original color.
So if I convert that to CMYK within the new Pantone + color palette, and then send it to the printer - it won't appear as it did on screen, it will dull the end color even more because it's converted the color to the dull simulated version - what a disaster! It's only doing half the job - showing us what it should look like on screen. In order to be truly efficient for design professionals the CMYK conversion might remove black and cyan completely to effectively brighten the color in the final output on uncoated paper. I would prefer it just stick to the standard conversion, which Pantone did have as a standard palette option (PMS to process), and then I can adjust if I think it's necessary.
Any corporate branding system will likely start with a PMS spot color palette for the identity. Then it will build into many different adaptations - full color brochures, large format banners and trade show graphics, website, advertising. So any corporate branding system will need to have PMS, CMYK and RGB versions of their main corporate color palette. There was a standard for these translations that was automatically consistent in the Adobe software and that is now all over the place, so it relies on individuals manually adapting the color mixes for final use - what a great way to screw things up.
I have a few thousand files that I need to process into colour swatches for a web site. The process entails locating a suitable area of each image, cropping that area to 25 pixels square, and saving the result. Obviously, I need to be able to do this as quickly as possible; ideally with just a single click for each image, and so I'd like to set up a script in order to batch-process the images. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that a suitable position on one image is going to be at all suitable for another, so a limited amount of interactivity is required.
Is it possible to set up an interactive batch task, or would some other approach be required?

The Adobe Photoshop CC 14.1.1 (14.1.1.415) crashes immediately on startup under OS X 10.8.5 unless I am running logged into the root account. This happens when I try to run Adobe Creative Cloud.app as a standard user or as a user with admin privileges.
In other words, the only way I am able to run the Adobe Photoshop CC application is if I take the dangerious option of enablign the root account, logging into it and then directly running the application.
how I can run Adobe Photoshop CC without having to both enable and login to the root account.

I've just applied the latest update, but am experiencing very slow image loading times between LR 4.1 and CS6 Extended edition. I am using an iMac 27 2.8Ghz with 8Gig of System Ram, over 300Gig of HDD free space.
Upon selecting edit-in CS6 with an image in LR 4.1, CS6 starts up with a long splash screen, loads, then I get a spinning grey circle, then CS6 loads on the desktop, then I get a colored spinning circle, before my image finally appears.
I have performance set to an external scratch disk witih 624G of free space, 5644 MB of memory usage at 74%, HS at 30 CL at 7 CTS at 1028K
I have CS5 still installed and it's load times are about twice as fast as CS 6
Know it's old, but have been using Photoshop CS 8.0 on office Mac Pro and home iMac for years with no problems. OSX is 10.5.8 Leopard. Still works fine on Mac Pro, but has just started crashing at startup on iMac for no apparent reason. Graphic layout comes up and then shuts down. Reinstalled the application with same result.
