Re: [Gimp-user] Interesting opinions
Since this is all about GIMP vs. PS, I just would like to say that these softwares may be basically the same, the end result depends more on the user. Both softwares have the same tools on their tool bars, or tools menu, and they also they function as good as the other. This is not a factor to some people, those who are not fund of using filters (for PS) or script-fu (for GIMP). However we cannot deny that most graphic artists or layout editors choose PS over GIMP, for the reason that they are not used to it yet, or that they have faith in PS more. So, with regards to this, I would like to point out that you can always customize GIMP shortcuts to match or to mimic those of PS. This will be much easier for new user. ( I'm sorry I can't find the url where I found the shortcut equivalents, but I'm sure it's out there somewhere). In my own preference, both softwares are good, but as for this moment, I use PS more than gimp because of this feature which enables you to folder your layers. It runs well under wine, and performs OK. Need a quick answer? Get one in minutes from people who know.

Re: [Gimp-user] how to break down a photo into printing colors and newsprint shading
I don't think this is possible. JPEG are already cooked, and flattened picture. I don't think you will be able to break it down, and turn it back to xcf (gimp format). I guess you shouldn't have deleted the original file of the image.ROCK n ROLL REBEL- Original Message From: rob [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDUSent: Monday, November 6, 2006 4:25:48 PMSubject: [Gimp-user] how to break down a photo into printing colors and newsprint shadingIs there a way in GIMP to take any JPG image and have GIMP output4 color seperatedimages as individual CYGK or RGB or choosable colors?I want to make a silk screen with a real complicated color image and I thought it could be possible tobreak down the photo into the silk screen inks and then make 4 different ink screens withemulsifiers by each color of the photo.I find pallettes and tools and such but can not make any sense of how to actually accomplish the task.Also... what about shading.Does gimp do shading...like newprint shading with dot densities?Is there a technical name for this kind of shading where a black and white image can appearas shading by dot saturations and not actually by having shades of grey?I'm real new at this so any information woul dbe greatly appreciated.Rob___Gimp-user mailing listGimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDUhttps://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Who's running gimp on amd64 ???
I'm running GIMP on a SUSE 10 64 bit, with a processor of AMD 64 3000+ , and it works pretty well with my system. I have 512 DDR ram, and GIMP still runs fast and stable even with some applications running with it. Usually I run gimp together with amarok, firefox,frostwire and xchat. -- REGISTERED LINUX USER # 393260there are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Re: Folders on layers
Thanks for these links.. I'll check 'em out as soon as I can. Foldering of layers really would help me organize the layers more, thus making the job easier.-- REGISTERED LINUX USER # 393260there are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
