Quoting John Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


BTW, I stumbled across a problem on how to dial down the speed of an
animated GIF.  How do you do this using Gimp (Windows)?


In order to change the speed of a GIF, you must change the delays that  
are specified in the GIF's layernames. I have written a short script  
which will do this for you.


http://flashingtwelve.brickfilms.com/GIMP/Scripts/anim-settings.scm

The script allows you to change the delay and mode settings for  
multilayer animations (usually GIFs). It works by renaming the layers  
with the appropriate values: for example, "Layer 1 (100 ms) (replace)".


It only changes the names of layers that are not hidden so that you  
can choose which layers you want set.


You can choose to set the Mode to "(combine)", "(replace)", keep the  
previous value, or clear the Mode part of the layername.


By the same token, you can specify the Delay (using a positive number  
of milliseconds), keep the existing Delay part (set the Delay to "0"),  
or clear the Delay part of the layername (set the Delay to "-1").


The command will appear in the menus as "Filters->Animation->Settings..."

That depends on whether you are using GAP or manually adjusting 
the timing. If you are using GAP, open the VCR Navigator and use 
the Framerate spin box to change the speed. If you are making 
manual adjustments, use the layers dialog and modify the layer 
comment to add or modify the timing information, e.g. "layer 1 
(125ms)".

When you optimize your animation for GIF, if there are several 
identical frames, they will be combined into one frame and their 
timing information will be added together, so that when you play 
back the animation, there will be a pause at the frame where 
several were combined.

GIMP works the same way in this regard whether you are using it 
on Windows or any other system.

Re: [Gimp-user] Probably simple, need to know right approach

2006-08-01 Thread saulgoode

Quoting Simon Roberts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I'm trying to put a bunch of photographs together as a collage. As I do
so, I want to be able to resize and reposition each one repeatedly
until I'm happy with the overall layout. So far what I'm doing is
pasting each image into a new layer, however, this isn't very
satisfactory because the layers are all the full size of the image, so
when I resize them, I can't really see what the effect will be on the
image itself.


It sounds as though you are creating a New Layer *then* pasting your  
photograph into it. If so, this is counter-productive. If the  
photographs are files on your harddrive, just create a New Image from  
the Toolbox File menu and from the Image's File menu do an "Open As  
Layer" to open the rest of the photographs 'all-at-once' (hold down  
the CTRL key as you click on each of the files in the Open Dialog).  
The photographs will be added to the image, each on a separate layer.  
You will most likely wish to perform an "Image->Fit canvas to layers"  
afterwards so that no layers extend beyond the image boundaries.


If I understand you correctly what you desire to do is not much  
different from what I did when I created the following iTunes spoof.


http://www.postbrickfilms.com/saulgoode/Images/ForumPosts/iGallery.jpg

Each of the images was on a separate layer (as well as the text; I had  
over 80 layers) and had to be resized and cropped to fitted the page  
in the proper location. The GIMP made this process very easy (it only  
took me about an hour). Since most of the images came from the  
Internet, I just used drag-n-drop to put them on new layers in the  
image.

Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP Batch Mode: nothing happens!

2006-08-01 Thread saulgoode
The 'gimp-image-convert-indexed' command does not take the run mode as  
an argument. Try deleting the RUN-NONINTERACTIVE from the call.


I would also recommend that you perform a 'gimp-image-flatten' before  
converting to INDEXED mode; this will help to eliminate aliasing  
artifacts.

[Gimp-user] Fiddling while Gimp burns.

2006-08-01 Thread John R. Culleton
Tried the latest development gimp, 2.3.9. Had a problem with
Xsane. It reecognized Xsane, and when I selected it gave me the
"accept" page. I said yes and then Xsane blew up.
(In the process of getting a runnable 2.3.9 I had to delete som3
glibs and insatll newer ones.)
So I downloaded 2.2.12 into its own directory, and compiled it.

It gives me the inital splash sreen but then errors, such as the following:

(gimp:12480): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 
`GimpConfigInterface'

(gimp:12480): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_interface_add_prerequisite:

Segmentation fault

So back to the drawing board. I can of course wipe out everything
and start all over. But I am stilll curious about the Xsane
thing. What would cause it to start and then abend? It hasn't
been changed.

I would do this nice and simple.  Make sure that you have the areas you want
to be greyscale selected (either select them or select the color bits and
invert the selection), then go to Colors->Desaturate

[Gimp-user] GIMP Batch Mode: nothing happens!

2006-08-01 Thread Gregory Yetman

Hi,

I'm trying to use the batch mode to process a large set of TIFF files. 
I've modified the script at:


http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Basic_Batch/

to convert the images from RGB to indexed (modified script below). 
However, when I try and run it nothing happens. I included the GIMP 
install in my path (running on Windows XP) and used the command:


gimp-2.2.exe -i -b '(convert-rgb-indexed "*.tif")' '(gimp-quit 0)'

The processor spikes momentarily and the process (gimp-2.2.exe) shows up 
in the list of processes, but nothing actually happens. I'm not getting 
any error messages, and the files are not being changed.


Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Greg


Code:

  (define (convert-rgb-indexed pattern)
  (let* ((filelist (cadr (file-glob pattern 1
(while filelist
   (let* ((filename (car filelist))
  (image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
  filename filename)))
  (drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image
 (gimp-image-convert-indexed RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
   image 0 0 255 0 0 "")
 (set! drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))
 (gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
 image drawable filename filename)
 (gimp-image-delete image))
   (set! filelist (cdr filelist)

[Gimp-user] Giant Art Tutorials Link List

2006-08-01 Thread Jürgen Hubert
In the last few weeks, I've collected a huge number of online art tutorial 
links. And now I've finally found a wiki where I could dump all those links - a 
gaming wiki, of all things.

The tutorials are mostly biased to the tools I am using - a Wacom tablet and 
GIMP - but also cover other subjects, and I think there will be something of 
interest to most people interested in digital art. So if you want to see all 
those tutorials, go to this page and view the appropriate sub-pages:

http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/RESOURCES:_Art

And if you know of any new tutorials - especially ones covering topics not 
found on the lists - please, by all means, add them to it.
