Yeah but RGB white should probably be preserved.  Try saving it as
.xcf first, and possibly changing the image mode to 'indexed' before
saving the GIF - maybe you can fine-tune the indexing.

PNG is a good replacemnt for GIF, btw - it will also be more accurate.

PS - if you want to send me the PSD off-list I will take a look.

Probably not.  GIF recognizes only 256 colors in total.  Some change
is to be expected.

[Gimp-user] Inaccurate Font Color After Export (psd -> gif)

2007-03-13 Thread ehchn1

Hi,

I have a psd image button created with GIMP.
It has blue background and white font (R=255, G=255, B=255)

However, I need it in GIF.
After doing an export to GIF, the font color is a bit different from the
original.
It's now (R=247, G=253, B=255).

Is there anyway that I can preserve the original font color?
Please advise.


Thanks.

[Gimp-user] express keys and touch strip on Intuos 3 tablet: do they work?

2007-03-13 Thread Hendrik Tews
Hi,

are the express keys and the touch strip of an Intuos 3 tablet
supposed to work in gimp?

I can see the keys and the touch strip delivering events with
both "xidump pad" and "xinput test pad". In the gimp stylus and
eraser work fine. In the "configure extended input devices"
dialog I set all 32 keys to Shift+Ctrl+r both for device pad and
stylus. When I press one of the express buttons the cursor in the
device status dialog jumps to pad, but nothing else happens. 

I use linux 2.6.18-4 from debian etch together with the wacom
modules that are in etch, probably version 0.7.4.1-5.

I observe the same with gimp 2.2.13 and 2.3.14.

Bye,

Hendrik
