View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to make a wall with some relief.. I dont want it to look flat or anything, but with some depth between the bricks. Its from a 3d view so it would not look nice if it were flat. I dont know how to get this effect though..and moreso..I have some graffiti brushes for the wall that need the same kinda brick relief effect (cause its sprayed on the bricks of course.. is there any way to create this as a style, brush, pattern or whatever...?
ive tried some wall brushes, but they dont give that feeling of depth..
Need some tips on achieving an effect like this: [URL]
I want to replace the Native American's head/image with my own (creating my own currency for my store's rewards program).
Ive imported a CATIA part and I'm trying to redraw it in Inventor. I have the main panels and bend rads in but I cannot for the life of me work out how to model the bend reliefs so they are similar to the ones on CATIA. The purpose of all of this is too reduce the bend reliefs that CATIA has produced even further.
Ive added both the original dumb solid from catia and the new inventor model to an assembly and contrained them in line so hopefully you see what I mean.
I am working on a 3D object (a bus) and want to add a deep metal color on it! I don't know how to make a texture so I get that nice metal color! I am going to paint the bus red and some other color but I get lost in all effects etc!I How I continue after adding a red color on the texture so I get it to look like a nice deep metal color!
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I start the Open Image process in the Windows version of GIMP and move to a directory and select an image file, I get the message "Creating Preview", which briefly changes to "Preview is out of date". This takes a long tim and may never end, depending on the directory and file I choose. What is going on? Is GIMP creating a preview image of every graphic file in the directory? If so, can I set a low resolution somewhere in the program to reduce the time spent doing this. In some cases I can't see the image after I open the file, but that may be a different problem (feature?) of the program.
View 2 Replies View RelatedStage 1: I wish to mark up an existing image with transparent, highlighter-like markings. I've come close with paths, stroking with brush, and applying a gradient map (with alpha adjustment), but I would like to get the density of the coloring to vary and I haven't been able to find a combination of brush and gradient adjustment that will accomplish this in a visible way. Specifically, I would like the center of the broad line more transparent and the edges less so.
Am I using the best approach?
Stage 2: Carrying Stage 1 a bit further, I would like the edges of the broad line to be discontinuously more intense than the center, so that they appear as edges. This seems like a gradient map function on the line left by the brush (standard fuzzy, (19)(21x21)) but again, I haven't found a gradient that will do it. I've tried splitting the map, etc, but I may just lack the experience. Or this might be the wrong approach altogether.
I've been trying to create text logos to be used as water marks for videos. Making the the text images is quite easy and the options under "create logo" are great. The problem is I don't know how to isolate just the text. Is there an easy way to do this? I was told to save files as "GIFS" to place on videos.

Desat by Lumin
Motion Blur -> Linear
Length 10
Then I think I need to color by apparent depth.. which I am not sure how to do?
I add text to an image using the text tool, after which the "active selection" (is that the right name?) is a rectangle around the text so that any edit I make will only be applied to this text.
That's fine, but what I can't seem to do is to get the "active selection" back to the whole image. If I use the rectangle selection tool, the selection appears but the selection around the text is still there and moreover, any edit I make will still only be made to the small box around the text.
I end up saving the image, closing, and reopening to continue working.
I am trying to create a runded border to make signs like the 'Give Way' sign but I don't know where to start with it, I want to make a four sided sign and not three, which I guess will make it a lot easier, how to make a three sided one.

I don't even have any single experience in editing images but I can do simple image manipulation like cropping.So what should I do to learn Gimp quickly?
And I am in an urge to create an animated .gif image like the one in the attachment. I have to post to my blog to illustrate a process. So how to create an image like that?
How do you make your text 3D? As in, instead of flat it has a 3D cube look or round or something like that? I looked at the text portion of the user manual and didn't see anything about that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a brush of a bubble. The end result I want is a colored bubble with a white shine like in this tutorial [URL]...... I am trying to make it into a brush so that I can replicate it easily and add an overlay to make the color.
I am having difficulty getting color in the middle and white as the edge/shine. I keep getting color as the shine and white in the middle. I suppose I am doing something wrong with the choice of white, black, gray, and alpha while making the brush.

Not exactly like those, but somewhat like them. I don't know how to do it .
How do I get started creating semi-transparent text? What I am looking for is text which you can "see through" the reduced color (not text which is bordered and otherwise entirely "see through".
I have got as far as creating some text in a document.
I looked on Google and it pointed me at the Layers menu and then "opacity" which I don't have on 2.8, so I guessed "transparency". It won't let me "Add alpha channel" (which I thought I had to do) so I made the text colored (which I want in the end anyway) and tried "Color to Alpha" but no matter what I do I can't change it in any way with the dialog boxes that open. Which Means I may be chasing the wrong dialog box anyway, but although the labels are very good, the terminology means nothing to me.
In the end I want to be able to create a series of short phrases and have them overlapping in a text design, being able to "see through" the overlap to some degree.
Have a question regarding the preparation of a TIFF image for printing. I would like to take the image and use it as the background for a printed flyer I want to mass-produce.
Currently the properties of the image are:
pixel dimensions: 1600 × 790 pixels
print size: 564.44 × 278.69 millimetres
resolution: 72 x 72 ppi
colour space: RGB Colour
file size: 3.8MB
file type: TIFF
size in memory: 13.2 MB
number of pixels: 1264000
number of layers: 1
I have been told I need to provide an image at least 300 x 300 dpi in order for it to be printed at a decent resolution.
My flyer is going to be around 100mm x 200mm and will be printed on both sides. I will be placing text over the image too. I have the text ready so I just need to work out how to get the background image ready.
My question is, how do I get the image into a format which is acceptable for printing?
How to make textures look great around the edges and blend nicely with the background.
Here's a sample of my problem, here's how the texture starts to look:
Here's it is rendered against a smoky light colored backdrop:

I can add shading in the .png file but then I can't render it properly as the shaded geometry messes up when I created the transparent background.
I'm trying to create a test font where the font changes to an opposite color than the stripe running 'through' it. Problem is I don't know if there is a specific name for this style, so all my searches have failed. I have attached a sample image and will explain.
The image has a phone cover with alternating red/blue stripes. There is a white cursive script font running vertical but the script is white. What I would like to try and do is make the script red where the stripe is blue and blue where the stripe is red. In effect, the font become a negative of the color it touches.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been working on a project in which I need to curve text. I know how to curve the text via creating a path, path to text, etc. This issue that I am having is that the bottom of the text is distorted. By distorted, I mean the bottom of the text becomes thin and it looks bad.
Here is an example of the issue that I am dealing with (if it shows up).

How can I define or adjust the pencil tool so it draws at the one pixel size in a new ".gif" work area. (That would be one pixel in the image to one pixel on the screen.) I found how to define the work area in pixels for a ".gif". The predefined pencil tool sizes (chosen by assorted dots) "went away" several versions of Gimp back as far as I know.
The object of this effort is to produce "TrainGifs" for use in other applications. Should you be interested just Google "TrainGifs" and you will be able to check out multiple site for this hobby.

In this case it is a like a stamp. Replacing the blacks with red and down toward blue as on the grey scale.
I've had trouble creating a certain type of motion blur effect. Typically, motion blur radiates outward from one single point. However, What I would like is for a whole section of an image to be clear (for instance, a character's torso) and then have the image GRADUALLY get blurrier from there.
I cannot figure a way to do this (apart from a very long process of creating many duplicate layers and doing an independent motion blur for each one).
Attached is an example of what my attempts look like right now: an obvious line around the region that I'm trying to showcase, rather than a smooth, gradual transition into the motion blur.

I need to create an outline map for another application. The world is demarcated into areas, separated by black lines. The map must only have black & white pixels.
Some questions about using GIMP for this.
1. Is there a tool I can use to make every non-white pixel black?
2. Is there a tool I can use to eliminate isolated pixels of the wrong color (that is for me a black pixel with all neighbors white or vice versa)?
3. Is there a tool I can use to make the black lines thinner? It is desirable in my application to have the lines be only 1 pixel wide
How I can set GIMP to allow for larger brush sizes?... or create larger brush sizes.
