[Gimp-user] image sizes and printing from gimp
Hi, trying to revamp my website without photoshop on my imac. I'm trying to figure out why mac's Preview and gimp show images and image sizes differently. I changed the image size in gimp to 360pixels wide which should be 5 but when I print from Safari on a new web page I created for it, it was much smaller. I was also trying to test print a few images only to discover that print isn't available in gimp. I thought CMYK should only be an issue on higher-end printers or for film separations. If others are printing from the Gimp, please tell me how. Sandy ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

There is a chance your imac had a dpi setting of 95 dpi (or there abouts) and your gimp setting was 72 dpi (or there abouts) so it would have come out 72/95 smaller owen ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] gimpgallery 0.8 ...now's the time
I'm proud to present the last gimpgallery release, 0.8. You find it at http://test.gimpgallery.net As you may already know gimpgallery is a project of a gimp website especially meant to host and show images and to share xcf sources too. It is the first attempt to create a community of gimp artists, giving them a suitable space for their works, projects and ideas. Gimpgallery is made with drupal, the well known opensource cms and we started developing it from inkscapegallery (http://inkscapegallery.net). It was already a good social network software, with most of the features you're getting used to but we worked a lot to make it even better. This new release presents many improvements since the last announce and a better cross browsing. We're supporting firefox 2, opera 9x, ie7 and ie6 (there are a couple of disclaimer for ie users). There's an issue with konqueror, instead, due to a javascript not supporting it. We fixed a lot of issues with internet explorer, as you may see on the random gallery at http://test.gimpgallery.net/slideshow If you're a gimp user try it out, every gimp artist now has its own profile, gallery and slideshow We made a new home page (http://test.gimpgallery/home) and we are trying to make things work like we wish to. gimpgallery is an image gallery website, it doesn't produce news or tutorials, so we took some rss feeds from the best internet resources about gimp and we placed in the home page, giving infos and links. Indeed, we're trying to build a network of gimp websites, everyone with its own attitude, so we will link gimptutorials.net for didactics, gimp.org and gimpusers.com for the news and we would like them to link us when a user will look for images. In the home page you see an arrangement for a new feature, an interview with a gimp artist that we might change every week or something like that, it is called a few words with... There's a fully customized submission and registration skin, that is quite new in the drupal world. We must test it so we hope you to help us registering and posting many contents. We have the forum where to inform us about bugs or software's bad behaviors . I don't want to annoy you with a long description (even because there would be too much to say :-) i just ask you to spend ten minutes of your time to browse it and i ask you to do this deeply, because there's a lot to see. Don't mind the images actually, 'cause we have only a few images really coming from gimp artists, some others come from inkscapegallery and they stand only for test. I hope you to like it as it is, but we still have the chance to make some changes it the layout, we focused on features actually and we hope them to really meet the requirements. As soon as we have enough images we will bring it online at its own address: http://gimpgallery.net and i think it will be funny :-) Greetings, Da. http://test.gimpgallery.net http://inkscapegallery.net ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Remember last used directory
Hi! I'm using Windows XP and GIMP 2.4.6. Is there any possibility for GIMP to remember last used directory when restarting it? It's not a big problem, it just make me annoyed a bit - I usuallly don't leave GIMP running in background when I finish retouching and everytime I restart it , I have to chdir to some directory once again.

Re: [Gimp-user] Saving individual layers
You could make each layer the only visible layer then save the file out and only one layer will be saved out to a file. On Sat, Jun 7, 2008 at 2:37 PM, scott s. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've been using the Microsoft Office scanning software. It has the capability of saving scans in tiff format. There must be some provision in tiff that allows multiple images (pages) to be saved in a single tiff format file. Gimp 2.4 (Win XP) tiff reader understands this format, opens the file and asks if it should open each page as image or as layers. Opening as layers allows single operations to apply on all pages, making work easier. The problem is there doesn't seem to be any way to print without flattening (all you get is the top layer of course) or to save the result, keeping the layers, in some format that another program can read. What I would like is something that could convert layers to images at least. scott s. . ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user -- Nathan Lane Home, http://www.nathandelane.com Blog, http://nathandelane.blogspot.com ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
