Thanks to both you, Simon, and Rick Strong for your comments.  I opted
to "roll the bones" with the RGB PNG I created, using the VistaPrint
template, and the site seemed happy with the resolution of the image.
The previews on the site looked good so I'm keeping my fingers crossed
that the image prints well.

Thanks again!

Tom

[Gimp-user] help with background blur

2016-11-19 Thread ronz91
Hey guys 

The podcast app I use, puts a podcasts thumbnail image in blur on the 
background when its playing (see image). How can I achieve this effect with
gimp? I like the darj colour as well.

I have also uploaded a possible image to try it on (GTR car pic)

Thanks

[Gimp-user] Replace Gold Splotches

Not the easiest to either color-select or create a mask, due to the 'pattern'
effect in the gold.

A quick way

Covert the image to indexed mode with a reduced palette - say 16 colours.

Edit the colormap to remove the gold-ish colors. There is about  6 of them.

Put the mode back to RGB.

There is still a scattering of light colored pixels in the background, use
Filters -> generic -> erode to shrink to nothing.

The grey lettering can be improved a little, color select, grow a pixel, fill
the selection with the grey.

The the black 'boutique' is the same as the background, put it in manually in
some other colour.

[Gimp-user] Replace Gold Splotches

2016-11-19 Thread rich2005
Sorry, totally misread the subject.

Same procedure using indexed mode, this time change all the gold-ish colours to
the same basic colour, I used red.

Back to RGB mode, Add an alpha channel

Color select that colour red and cut.

That gives the attached. Put a new layer under that and fill with your pattern.

This is not a standard directory for GIMP plug-ins - are you sure that
this is one that you have set up on your system, and do you know how to
verify that in GIMP's preferences?

"It doesn't work" is vague. Several possible reasons:


- Your layer is not the active layer and your painting elsewhere 
(channel or invisible layer)


- You are trying to paint outside the boundaries of the active layer

- There is a selection and you are trying to paint outside of it

- The "mode" of the paint tool is not "normal"


Otherwise, more information would be useful, in particular do you get a 
"forbidden" sign on the pointer?
