I am trying to make an image from using words- I have an image and I want to make it using just words.....so it's an image of an object but made with words (think of a photo mosaic, but with words.) I am not sure how to do this. I searched online, but all I was able to find were tutes on adding text to an image. What I want is the image to be made out of text.

Or am I using the incorrect tool.

I try to add text to an image. So I click in the text-tool. As soon as I double- click in the image in order to start typing my text, Gimp reports: X11 quit unexpectedly. Click reopen to open the application again.
When I click on reopen, a window appears with the text: "bash-3.2$"
I was wondering, how was the text created in this image?
I really like the streaks/lines that go accross it but am not sure how it was done?
I have a gif image of Text that I'm pretty sure I created with GIMP a long time ago (See Attachment). I want to inrease the box to create another line of Text. How can I find out what font the original is and how do I add height to the image to add an additional line of text.
The attachment is a PNG but doesn't seem to be showing up correctly. I'll try to both attach it and insert it..
I've got a script for processing a bunch of files which starts by bringing up ufraw. I would like to have ufraw save the list of modifications made before returning to gimp. (.ufraw file)
However, when gimp starts ufraw, it passes some option to ufraw whichcauses ufraw to not display the save tab which allows setting what to save.
Is there a way to tell gimp to bring up ufraw differently, or is the problem in ufraw?
I have successfully assembled three images into a workable form. Now I want to add a text line to the image. GIMP's text system seems to be very cryptic, what with pathing and other terms that don't seem to have a definition as far as I have found. All I want is a single line of common text characters. Nothing fancy, no text jumping out of a cornucopia or being carried by a dirigible, no clowns or frogs. Just plain text.

View 3 Replies View RelatedDon't know much about photo shopping or manipulating images, but hope to learn more, since I already have one Etsy shop (selling beauty products) and am planning on opening another (selling miniatures).
For my first Etsy shop I used a Free Etsy Banner provided by a blogger I follow. I did not include text or my shop name in my Banner.
I have downloaded another banner from this same blogger, this one has the option to include text (your shop name) and I would like to include my shop name for the miniatures Etsy shop I plan to open within about six month.
I asked her how to enter text and she said to just open it in Picture, or whichever photo shop type program I use. I have a Mac, am fairly broke, Gimp was recommended to me by another small business owner.
I managed to figure out how to enter text, use the text editor, and place it in the blank field. The only problem is I can't see the text, despite playing around with the colour of the text.
I'm just getting into Gimp now. I've used Corel Draw a bit, but I'm not too familiar with Gimp.
I'm trying to make a layer that will make a semi-circular text that fits within the belt of the attached image. I'd like to have it on a layer that I could easily select and change text/font as I'm still playing around with what I want inside of it.
How to use any photo editing software so my knowledge and skillset are limited. that being said, i'm slowly starting to get the hang of a few effects, and am working on making my own desk top. i blended the images that i wanted together, so the only thing left to do is to add flaming text to it.
I know how to make flaming text on a black background, unfortunately i don't know how to add said text to my image (if it is at all possible). i tried adding a seperate layer with a black background, then i figured i would delete that layer, but you have to merge the text down to the black background in order to be able to use the smudge effect, so that idea was a bust. i can't really think of anything else.
I have an image. I want to add a solid color strip near the bottom . On top of the strip I want to add text .
Question: what's the best way I can get this strip?
In Photoshop, I would probably just create a new image of the length of the strip and then fill with the color I need and then copy and paste onto the image .
I'm working with banners and I've made the banner I want. When I put the text on there and add an animation to the text, it always goes to a different screen and won't show with the original background. Is there anyway to get the animated text to work on a still background?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have gimp 2.8 and am taking a class on gimp. I need to use an image to make text and it doesn't work.
I have followed steps from Google searched tutorials and I can do all the steps but the end result is I still paste a black font. (I tried opening gimp tutorials and it took me to a page to link to the tuts but wouldn't open? So i went to Google.
I have followed a variety of step lessons - some that are easy and some that go on forever. None work. The easiest steps were .. open an image / select tool font / click on image / type text / resize to how I want it to look / move it to where i want text to be over image / click on text layer / right click / drop menu choose "alpha to selection" = text letters become selected (at this stage I can fill with a pattern etc and that works so I know I have a selection) Edit/ copy / open new file / edit / paste / and the text should be written with the image as the letters BUT I just get the text in black.
What am i doing wrong or does this feature not work in 2.8.
Is there a way to make text 3d and fold it round to make it look like each letter is a stone in stonhenge. I'm not worried about the colour or rendering but about how to do the control of the text either as text or converted to paths and then folding it into a circle so that letters at the front are facing into the circle?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two images open, one is a .png with a transparent background, but when I paste it onto a colored background image, it loses the text color from the original. I probably need to be doing this with layers but I can't even figure out how to get both images on the same layers dialog.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy problem might be a little more complicated than most problems considered 'beginner', but for all I know about GIMP (which is very little), it could be very simple.
I wish to superimpose text on an image so that the text's color us what color it was superimposed upon. To better explain what I want, take this rainbow image:
[URL]
Say somebody type a large lowercase g near the top left corner of the image. The top circle of the g would be red whereas the bottom circle (or hook depending on the font) would be purple since it dips that far down.
After I finish typing the text, I could save that layer, or cut/copy that text as a new image and save it then.
I'm trying to add text to an image with a background. An example of what I am trying to do is shown in the example photo attached.
