May 22, 2013How I choose a color for any new objects I want to create. I've opened the toolbox with ctrl-b, which appears on the left side of the window. If I want to , for example, draw a red rectangle, I use the rectangular selection tool, then the bucket fill, and I don't see how to change the foreground color to red.
I've read elsewhere in the forum that there should be two rectangles somewhere on the screen that show foreground and background color, but I don't see them anywhere.
GIMP :: Isolate Background Using Color?
Mar 23, 2012Earlier this week I mentioned on Google+ that I discovered something about gimp that was pretty huge, something that would change how I edit photos forever.
Since then, I've been determined to figre out how to boil this small bit of information, and show you just how much this can work for layer masking and isolating backgrounds, especially in the studio scene and landscape photography. I finally decided to simply do what I do best - record a gimp video tutorial using the method that I discovered, and share it with everyone.

Oct 25, 2012I have an image with an transparent background. I want to change all pixels that are not the background to one color. How do I do this? I can't select the pixels, they as arbitrariliy distibuted. I've played with threshold, but that's not working either. I tried Image-->Mode -> Indexed and then Use black and white palette, but that doesn't work either. I thought i would convert all non-transparent values to black, but instead its picking some threshold and making some black and others transparent. Example file attached.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Add Border In Background Color Around A Layer
Jul 23, 2013A while ago, I wanted to add a border in the background color around a layer. So, I increase Layer Boundary Size using the corresponding tool. So far so good. I even wrote into a script, combined with adding drop shadow, see [URL].......
Then, I bought a new computer. I knew it. Never update or upgrade.
Now, when I increase the layer boundary size, it does increase the size of the layer, but the "border" is now transparent. I know, I know, I can fill it up using the bucket fill tool, but first of all this is annoying, and second of all, I am really wondering: what happened? Why did it work before, and doesn't it work now anymore? I am baffled. I see three possibilities:
- The GIMP installation on my new computer has some global setting differently which I am missing
- GIMP was updated and this has changed
- this is a bug, or at least a quirk, having something to do with old computer running on Win7 and new computer running on Win8
GIMP :: Cutting Out Background - Color Mapping Method
May 25, 2013I have attached two images of a young girl. One image (the original) is the one with the busy background. The second image is the one that I have cut out. Now with the pattern I have inserted behind her, the image seems quite acceptable, but if it as a plain white background, there is still some areas around the hair strands that contain the bluish background. Also to get to the stage of my image, I had to delete some of the whispy hair strands to make it look acceptable.
My question is, do you think it is possible to cut this out any better. This was done using the Color mapping method, but I have tried a number of other methods, but cannot seem to keep the hair strands visible and still end up with some color contamination around them. Do you think you could try this image and see if it could be done better.
GIMP :: Gradient Isn't Smooth Enough Transition To Background Color

GIMP :: Image Takes On Blue Color Of Background
Sep 16, 2011When adding a foreground image to a "flaming" blue background, I find that the image I add takes on the blue colors of the background, rather than keeping its original colors.
The linework and highlights (indeed, most of the detail) remain - they just all turn blue, heh. Like it's trying to camouflage itself. How do I keep the foreground image from "masking" itself to the colors of the background?
Both background and foreground image layers are in .xcf format. Could this be the problem? Do I need to change one or both to something like .jpg or .gif?
GIMP :: Blending Photo Into Solid Color Background

GIMP :: Changing Background Of JPG Image Using Color To Alpha
Sep 21, 2013First time using GIMP. Following the directions here: [URL] ......
Using, "Color to Alpha," I tried to select the background of my .jpg image. The background is white, the picture (logo) portion is silver. Because of the closeness in color, when I select white, the software selects the entire image to become alpha (transparent).
When I select the color of the picture, silver, I am able to select just the logo portion. How can I take the logo portion, which is now converted to transparent, and give it a black or transparent background, and then return the logo back to its former color silver. The logo is perfect, it is just that I recently switched my site from a white header to a black header and the image has a white background, so that does not look good.
GIMP :: Mask Layer On Top Of Another (Black Outline / Color Background)
Jun 19, 2013I have 2 layers and I want to mask one through the other. I've attached a png showing what I want. I tried to attach an .xcf file, but it won't do it, which seems strange for a gimp forum. Anyway, one layer is the text (black outline) and one layer is a colorful background. In the xcf, the background layer is entirely filled with the colorful stuff, but I want it to only show through the interior of the letters (as shown in the png).

Jun 5, 2013I did put a real photo in the background of my website to fit entire page. So the text of my webpage is black, and sometimes other colors. So what happen is that some times the text is hard to read when it come on top of dark places of the photo (for example hear of people). So i want to adapt the photo to make it more unicolor, more whiten (increase whiteness) so the black text will appear even better.
What tools and filters in gimp that give me this ability to do that ?

GIMP :: Cut Out Background From Logo To Get Transparent Background
Sep 16, 2011I was asked to cut out the background from a logo to make it transparent so the logo would look nice on a variety of backgrounds. I've been given a good quality jpeg file.
What I did was I selected (by colour) the background (white), inverted the selection, copied it and pasted as a new image.
It's all fine (the logo itself doesn't have any other elements) but there's still some whiteish/greyish outline around certain elements of the logo.
If I were to do it manually, it'd probably take ages. What would be the best way to accomplish it?

View 5 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Install 2.8 Alongside 2.6 In Windows?
May 16, 2012it isn't possible to install 2.8 alongside 2.6 in Windows (7 x64 in my case) at least using the pre-built windows installer?
The installer for GIMP 2.8.0 will uninstall older versions first, but youcan simply reinstall GIMP 2.6.12 afterwards.
Reason for asking is that there are a number of 2.6 plug-ins I need, and looking at the GIMP plug-in repository few indicate 2.8 compatibility. So I would need to test them myself but if they don't work I would go back to 2.6, at least for some tasks.
Old plugins should keep working - if you find any that don't, report thatas a bug (this includes 32bit plugins running on 64bit GIMP).
GIMP :: RESYNTHESIZER - How To Download And Install
Sep 1, 2012Rich2005 - still can't make it work.
It seems I got all the results I expected all the way and all seems right as far as I can tell.I uninstalled Gimp (and lost the User Manual Guide in the process and can't find it again), reinstalled Gimp2.8, followed all the steps described and ended up with:
Gimp2.8 in "All Programmes". It opens but Resynthesizer is not there.I go to New User/Downloads/.gimp2.8/plugins and the three files I downloaded as instructed are there - Heal Selection.py, a python file, resynthesizer and resynthesizer-gui, both executable files. (Other instructions say to put one of those files in the "scripts" folder and to change one file to another updated one but...) Happy that they're where they're meant to be I close all and reopen Gimp.
From all I've gleaned in my search for a good Editor Gimp seems to be at the top of the list. I know others have managed to do this so I don't understand why I can't.
