already done in several variants for both golden rule and rule of third.

There is already not just one but several similar scripts around of various 
authors same even in obvious places (gimp FxFoundry,the gimp plugin registry...)

The Crop tool supports this feature already, just like the rectangle select.  
(At least as of GIMP 2.6 ... you didn't say which version.)

It would probably not be too difficult to write a script-fu to add guides to 
the current image/layer for these divisions as well.

Both the rectangle selection tool and the group tool support these "guides":

Guides
With this menu you can select the type of guides that is shown
within the selection to make the creation of a selection easier,
respecting Photo composition rules.

No Guides
No guides are shown at all.
Center lines
Only center lines are shown as guides within the selected area.
Rule of thirds
Guides are shown along the rule of thirds while creating the selection.
Golden sections
With this option, guides show up to mark the golden sections.

[Gimp-user] Rule of thirds or golden ratio tool (suggestion)

2011-03-04 Thread Enrique Gómez
hello

I'd suggest a tool for photographic composition that has as options the rule
 of thirds or the golden ratio. So you can do photo composition on the fly and
crop the image based on it.

Could be use as base Cutting tool, only the grid would be added with the R
ule of Thirds and/or Golden Ratio and with an proportionally
adjustable rectangle
(3/4, 4/3).

I enclose a mockup with the idea of what could it be.

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_ObneB_vK1iE/TXELJpPuIOI/BB8/2AYGGNlb6NU/s912/Compose_foto.png

Circulates a script that generates a grid of thirds rule, but this is done
based on a final picture, so there is no way to make composition

Sure, I'm not a programmer
