GIMP :: How To Make Abstract Art
Jul 19, 2008
How to make abstract art on GIMP! They will all look very different, here is a possible outcome:
1. First, open a canvas of any size. I suggest 120x480 for a sig.
2. Now set all of your gradient options to:
Mode: Difference
Gradient Abstract 1
Shape: Linear
3. Now put a gradient across the canvas.
4. Keep on putting these all over.
5. Now change the shape to Radical.
6. Put these gradients over a few times, as before.
7. Now change the mode to Hue, and the shape to Linear.
8. Put these gradients over it again. Keep on doing this until you find a style you like.
You can now add any effects you want to.. these also make great backgrounds for sigs..

Here's a few images from the game Step Mania. They are backgrounds for different songs. A few of them really stuck out as spectacular to me.

I'm trying to recreate either one of the backgrounds in the 2 images below. I have a fairly good knowledge around Photoshop. I've tried rendering and filtering and just couldn't reach a relatively similar background to either one of these backgrounds.

So I have a nice abstract background that is in tones of green. However I want it to be in tones of maroon. I have tried various filters etc etc to change the colour, however it seems to change the colour but some areas just go dark. What is the best way to achieve this affect and how do I do it?

I followed a tutorial on how to make abstract images using abstract brushes. One of the attachments is from the tutorial. The other is my result.(you will know which is whose; I used the same brush)
There must be some brush settings I need to adjust, but the tutorial doesn't say anything about them. What am I doing wrong here?(messing with shape dynamics and scattering produced a better result, but it was too bright and still looked terrible.)

How do I make a 4 x 6 picture? I went to resize and converted to inches. i then put in 4 x 6, but it kept popping back to 4 x 4.
I have never used this program before, and I thought it looked easy, but I am evidently not doing something right.
The picture itself looks like a rectangular picture before I pulled it up in Gimp.

When I change the opacity on my text layer, the text does not fade. It disolves instead. The resolution was terrible, became worse and then the text suddenly dissapered.
I don't think it was the disolve type either when it is set in that mode. However,I tried changing the mode anyway
I changed the mode to normal, divide,. overlay, burn, soft light, subtract. Whatever I tried it made no difference.

I have recently discovered that there is more to gradients in GIMP than I had previously thought: the different varieties of pre-sets, as well as the"off-set" tool. How to make a new gradient of your own? Any other cool stuff? (Being able to manipulate gradients would be cool.)

How can I make 1 image out of 2 images?
I have made- 1 image with a black line on white background saved as xcf- 1 image with a black letter "A" on white background saved as xcfBoth images are rectangulars. I scaled the height of both images to the same value.
Output should be 1 image - with white background:
- one rectangular consisting of the old 2 rectangulars- area is the sum of the area of the 2 old rectangulars- on left side the "line" image
- on right side the "A" image
- new image can be saved as xcf
Looking for answer in simply consecutive row of commands like:
GIMP > file > open file: image with line > right click on image > image > scale image > ...GIMP > file > open file: image with letter > ...

Is there any way to make a template? Say I have a made to order pair of shorts and want to be able to edit on different types of fabric, is there any way to edit the area on the shorts where I want to put the fabric, so I can do it with various types of fabric without having to spend a great deal of time?
On the same pair of shorts for instance, where the area would be the exact same of editing space I would need from the fabric pattern to edit on, is there any way to make a template of sorts of that space on the shorts to use?

The image in the middle is my .gif, and it is playing on the football field/players/text background. However, when I save the .gif, the background is the 1st frame, and then disappears from the 2nd frame onward as the .gif plays. How can I make the .gif play on the background?

In gimp I have imported an image. I then duplicate the image four times (I am trying to make four different crops of the same image). But every time I crop one corner of the image, it automatically crops ALL OF THE OTHER DUPLICATES TOO!!!! I have tried just importing the same image four times as individual layers, but that doesn't work either! Why does one layer affect all of them?!

I am using the newest version of Gimp. Everything is great, it runs smooth and not many crashes..But! I cant make brushes or Patterns. in the older versions all you had to do was select what you wanted as a brush/pattern name it, and it would appear
Now, I get this
Error: (<unknown> : 18850791) Procedure execution of file-gbr-save failed: Could not open 'C:Documents and SettingsNorseman.gimp-2.8/brushes/mybrush14.gbr' for writing: No such file or directory
Am I missing something? Do I need to reinstall Gimp?I havent loaded any new patterns or brushes, so I dont know why its not working?

So whenever I open up Gimp and then a new image, the layer for the background don't show up. > [URL]..
I've this window with all the tabs for the brushes, patterns etc and when I want to make the layers visible, I've to drag the layers window to the tabs and then drag it back to where it first was.. (it's quite hard to explain )
[URL]....
so basically, the layers don't show unless i do something what can i do about this?

I started out in Gimp, did some font work. Second, exported file out, to use Microsoft publisher for something. Is it possible to make file adaptable to Gimp again, cause I realize I need to manipulate the font, and put something else in. But I'm guessing once (if I even can) put the file back in Gimp..I'm guessing I won't be able manipulate the font..

image editing in general, so I'm not sure what how to really say what mean because I don't know the correct terms (If there are any).
The most I can do to clarify what I mean is offer two examples. The first is a picture I found:
[URL]
The sunlight hits her head at the very top right of the image and transitions from white (direct sunlight) to brown (indirect sunlight) to black (almost no sunlight). Also, the light directly touches her hands and legs (white) and then transitions to indirect (pink).
The second example I can offer is on this very forum. On the header, if you look at the larger GIMP dog balloon (I think they're dogs, anyway...) you can see the white oval on top of the purple-ish nose. If you look at the top of the nose, right before it transitions to the black outline, you see an almost reflection-like effect.
Is there a function in GIMP to do this? Or, at least, some sort of work-around?
