[Gimp-user] Rough metallic surface
I wanted to make a rough metallic surface and I ended up with this by fiddling around with a back-to-white gradient and emboss it. I finally got a clean 200x200 image that alings seamlessy and can be used as a pattern: http://www.staldal.nu/gimp/patterns/metallic.pat (You can make it golden by colorify with yellow.) Are there any other strateiges for making a rough metallic surface? (Feel free to use this pattern if you like it.) You might use a bump map. Open a suitable image, plenty if you search google images, in your case perhaps part of a larger image as a base. Then in your new image it is filters - map - bumpmap and point at the 'rusted' image. You get an effect like this. http://i.imgur.com/73HYK.jpg Since you are aiming at a small image for a tilable pattern, then its filters - map - make tilable. -- rich (via gimpusers.com) ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I do not know what to do about that or if the answer to my post will be sent to my email box. RR I assume you sent your message through www.gimpusers.com? This is the _mailing-list_ gimp-user, which is not run by www.gimpusers.com. A lot of people get confused by that since www.gimpusers.com call it a forum: Our forums are connected to the official mailing lists. The interface provides a way to read and answer mailing list messages in a forum-like style. So if you want to give feedback on the www.gimpusers.com interfaces/website, get in touch with them instead (perhaps via http://twitter.com/gimpusers, I can't see that they have an official feedback button). I prefer to read the mailing list through this interface instead: http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.gimp.user There's a link Post a message on the left hand side (under Options) to post new threads, or you can press Reply under individual messages. You don't have to log in anywhere, but the first time you send a message you'll get an email that you just have to send back (to prove that your email exists). -Kevin ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Suggestions for GIMP layout
Von: John Culleton j...@wexfordpress.com On my machine /usr/local/ is writable by my own user name. In fact my own user name owns /usr/local and all its subordinates. So rights are not the problem. I just have to go through more clicks than is reasonable just to get back to where I started. So the default path of the export dialog as described in the Save Export specification for 2.8 should fulfill your needs: http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/Save_%2B_export_specification#exporting_files Regards, Michael -- NEU: FreePhone - 0ct/min Handyspartarif mit Geld-zurück-Garantie!
