Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP Scripting from the CLI

[Pat David]

I'm curious, why the desire to batch-export to .xcf?  You can batch
directly to .png and/or leave the .tif as they are, and allow GIMP to
import them when you want to work on them (and _then_ save to .xcf as you
work).

Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP Scripting from the CLI

[Pat David]

I would leave the tifs alone as your original/base files, and only convert
to xcf as you need for processing them. No need to double your disk usage
just to have them ahead of time (it will happen as you touch them anyway,
assuming you save them as xcf after processing)...

Re: [Gimp-user] Chromatic aberration plugin does not work

Sorry, I'm not familiar with this plugin, but wanted to say that if you're
looking for an automated means of fixing CA in your images, I've always had
great results from using tca_correct (part of the Hugin panoramic
processing software): http://hugin.sourceforge.net/

There's builds for all major OS's there.  They even have a nice tutorial on
using tca_correct on their site:
http://hugin.sourceforge.net/tutorials/tca/en.shtml

Perhaps that could be useful?

Re: [Gimp-user] Some problems after upgrading to 2.8.2 via Debian wheezy

[Pat David]

Hi Martin,

1) It sounds like you may have a plugin/script installed that has stolen
the "C" character focus.  (I don't have a "Color Tint" option in my color
menu...).  You can modify the script if needed to correct this.

2) The sliders are actually very slick now, but may take a little getting
used to:  The top 50% of the  slider is for 1:1 value adjustments, the
bottom 50% of the slider is for finer value modifications (you should get a
different cursor when hovering over the different portions).  You can still
get the old 1:1 modifications by hovering/clicking on the top half of the
slider widget.

3) This one I am not sure of - perhaps you could just use the RT_sRGB
profile in GIMP to avoid it?  (Not 100% sure here, I've always let it
convert, and it's been pretty quick for me).

Re: [Gimp-user] Invert alpha channel

Layer -> Transparency -> Alpha to Selection.
Save as channel.
Apply as layer mask.
Invert.
Does that help?

Re: [Gimp-user] Processing a stack of images

[Pat David]

I feel like you may have better luck with something dedicated to image
distortions. Like Hugin.

It's relatively trivial to align many images, and then define
horizontal/vertical reference lines, and stitch away!

Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp 2.8.6 Windows - Queries new Plug-ins at every startup

[Pat David]

I feel that perhaps you may be a bit misguided in your interpretation of
GIMP.

There are plenty of us who use it daily for high end photographic
retouching and editing.  Like most things worth using, it may take a little
time to become accustomed to the methods and interface.  Being initially
confusing to you doesn't necessarily make it any less of a program in terms
of capability or performance.

GIMP is aimed at raster image manipulation.  It is more than capable for
the just about any photo editing you may want to do (with few exceptions).
 I personally am willing to guess that it will do anything you personally
need to do in Ps.

GIMP will not read RAW files directly, but neither will Ps, just FYI.  Ps
uses Adobe Camera RAW to first 'develop' the image, then passes it to Ps
for editing.  In the same way, GIMP can use a RAW processor to first
develop the image, then open it (of course, you have a nice choice of RAW
processors to choose from in the F/OSS world).

btw, if you are not actually developing your RAW files in ACR first, you're
already losing a huge chunk of control right out of the gate.  Seriously.

For instance, my own workflow has me opening/editing RAW files in
RawTherapee, which I then pass directly (and easily) into my GIMP sessions.

If it helps, I personally write tutorials specifically targeted at GIMP for
photographic retouching/editing.  Perhaps walking through a couple of
tutorials may help you wrap your head around the concepts that are
different than what you might be used to?

http://blog.patdavid.net/p/getting-around-in-gimp.html

Also, I might suggest looking into a different location for downloading
your version of GIMP.  Partha has builds that include many useful
photographic plugins/scripts that may help your workflow out as well:

[Gimp-user] Fwd: Gimp 2.8 Control Panels

[Pat David]

Just realized I had posted back off-list.  Sorry.

You may be having one of these issues:

1. Are you in single-window mode?  You can check by going to the menu bar:
Windows -> Single Window Mode.

a) if you are, you can open any of the dockable dialogs by going to the
menu bar again: Windows -> Dockable Dialogs.  Then just choose the ones you
want to see. (you can do this anyway, but see below).

b) if you are not, are the dialogs off-screen somewhere?  Try going into
Single Window mode, and see if your dialogs appear on the sides of your
GIMP window.

Re: [Gimp-user] Best way to edit this background

[Pat David]

There is a fork of GIMP that has a fantastic foreground select tool. I used
it in a recent tutorial, so it's fresh in my head:

http://blog.patdavid.net/2013/08/an-open-source-headshot-ronni.html

It's RGGJAN fork (so you'll need to download another GIMP). The tool you'll
want is the foreground select tool. There's a video on that link as well if
it helps clarify things a bit.

Re: [Gimp-user] Question about bump map location

[Pat David]

Not sure if this will help, but it's one way of easily adding a "watermark"
if you need to:

[Gimp-user] Film Emulation Presets with G'MIC (ala: VSCO & DxO)

[Pat David]

Hi all,

Figured it might be worth mentioning this here.

I had been working for a while on creating film emulation presets for many
different types of films (and emulating some other emulations - how meta!).
 I finally got around to finding a way to get these presets out in the wild
for any GIMP user to be able to use.

I have a longer blog post about what I was up to here:

http://blog.patdavid.net/2013/08/film-emulation-presets-in-gmic-gimp.html

Basically, I needed an easily packaged way to make presets available for
HSL shifting, as well as tone curves.  After speaking with David
Tschumperlé (G'MIC), I thought G'MIC might be the best way to go.

So, if you have a recent G'MIC plugin installed, and you refresh your
filters, you'll now find a "Film Emulation" section where all of my
different emulation presets are available (in multiple levels of strength).

At the moment, I have emulations for:

New (Current) film stocks:
Fuji 160C, 400H, 800Z
Fuji Ilford HP5
Kodak Portra 160, 400, 800
Kodak TMAX 3200
Kodak Tri-X 400

Samples here:
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-pK8GoIbKuts/Uijz9Zq4awI/Ln8/NDJkk-xTIbY/s0/patdavid+film+emulation+presets+new+stock+-+Low.png


Old(er) film stocks:
Fuji Neopan 1600
Fuji Superia 100, 400, 800, 1600
Fuji Ilford Delta 3200
Kodak Portra 160 NC, 160 VC, 400 NC, 400 UC, 400 VC
Samples here:
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-OKAUFqjB7iM/Uijz9TIrDtI/LoE/0VBaJzf5x9I/s0/patdavid+film+emulation+presets+old+stock+-+Low.png

Consumer Instant film:
Polaroid PX-70
Polaroid PX100UV
Polaroid PX-680
Polaroid Time Zero (Expired)

Samples here:
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-c0cJ9rbWVJo/Uijz9cxg73I/LoA/oa-8KX3rUZU/s0/patdavid+film+emulation+presets+Instant+%255Bconsumer%255D+-+Low.png


and Professional Instant film:
Fuji FP-100c
Fuji FP-3000b
Polaroid 665
Polaroid 669
Polaroid 690
Samples here:
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-mgZb2SMIrdA/Uijz9YBO-8I/Ln4/zSKc4iE3L5w/s0/patdavid+film+emulation+presets+Instant+%255Bpro%255D+-+Low.png

I'm working on some others at the moment, including some slide films as
well.

Hope someone out there can get some use out of these!

Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp Contact Sheets

[Pat David]

I know it's not GIMP, but if you're just looking to solve the problem of
generating contact sheets for a directory of images, imagemagick might be
helpful (not sure if it will, but figured it might be worth at least a
mention):

Re: [Gimp-user] Text that changes colour depending on background colour?

[Pat David]

I'm assuming you'll have two layers.  The bottom layer is the black graphic
of a bat.  The top layer is your text.

Make sure your text color is white.  Then just change the layer blending
mode of the top (text) layer to "Difference".

[Pat David]

Under the "Colors" menu there are many different options for adjusting

Brightness-Contrast, Threshold, Levels, Curves, etc.)

Note that these will be applied to the currently selected layer.

Re: [Gimp-user] Wavelet Decompose

[Pat David]

You'll likely need to compile the plugin?  It's distributed as source files

http://registry.gimp.org/node/11742).

>From the INSTALL file included with the package:

INSTALL
===

For Linux and Unix users

To install this GIMP plugin simply state

make
 make install

for a system wide installation (with root privileges) or

 make
make userinstall

for a user installation. A restart of The GIMP is recommended.

Other platforms

I'm sorry I have no knowledge on how to install plugins on other platforms.
I
hope others will find a way.

Re: [Gimp-user] logo

[Pat David]

I personally am not a fan of watermarks, as I feel it is distracting and
pointless.

With that being said, open the image you want to watermark.
Then use File -> Open as layers...
Choose your logo.
Move it to the location you want, and set the opacity of logo layer to
whatever suits you (and/or use a different blending mode like "Overlay").

Export.
Voila.

Re: [Gimp-user] Trouble opening JPG files with black features

[Pat David]

I've downloaded your attached file, and it opens with no problems (quickly)
in Partha's 2.8.10 portable build (Win7 64bit).

Also, to strip all the metadata using exiftool:

exiftool -all= FILE.jpg

I suggest you test this first on a backup copy of your image (and mind the
blank space after the "=").

Re: [Gimp-user] Fx Foundry/Windows Media Center

[Pat David]

You'll need to extract the contents of the archive into your scripts
folder.  Here are a couple of posts to help figure this out:

http://blog.patdavid.net/2014/02/getting-around-in-gimp-plug-ins-and.html
http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/gimp-add-ons-types-installation-management

I don't use WMC personally, so not sure where those folder locations may be
in that system.  You can find out where to install scripts by starting
GIMP, then going to "Edit -> Preferences".  Then down to "Folders".

Find the scripts folder, and you should either unpack the archive there, or
point to a different directory on your computer where they are located
(probably a better method?).

I see that schumaml had to lock down registrations again (probably best

For the time being I can try to activate your accounts, if you can send me
the username/email you used to register (akovia in particular).

You can send the information off-list if you'd like and I'll try to look
into it.

Re: [Gimp-user] Help finding the right plugins and filters

[Pat David]

April,

The process to emulate those looks will be dependent on what her images
look like to start with.  If you can post/send a few sample images I can
probably point you in the right direction to get started.

If I had to guess I might lean towards VSCO film presets (you can get
similar presets from the G'MIC plugin as well).

[Pat David]

I can't add much to the color discussion, but at least I can offer up just
about any of my images as RAW for any testing (just about everything I
shoot is cc-by-sa usually).  If anyone finds one of mine they would like,
just let me know and I'd be happy to provide the camera raw file.

Re: [Gimp-user] Help finding the right plugins and filters

[Pat David]

April,

The particular part of G'MIC I'm referring to is "Film Emulations".  There
are quite a few different emulations for various film stocks that may get
you what you are looking for color-wise.

Bear in mind that the 'darkness' to the images in your first post are due
to a combination of processing as well as the exposure conditions at the
time.  Your sample images have quite a bit of direct sunlight in them,
which makes it a bit harder to impart a sense of 'darkness' in them.

Here's a quick (<5min) edit to show what I mean:

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_BBemcslfSU/VGDsLkisGxI/SOI/qDOQTfGc6RA/s0/april-1.jpg

I used one of the film emulations (I don't remember now).  Masked her to
and raised the curves to lighten her slightly.  Added a vignette.  Then
crushed the shadows a bit and lifted the black point (in the levels dialog
- bring the input black level up, then raise the black output level to
taste).

April,

Because I cannot leave well enough alone, a second example:

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Ca4gKTlu72k/VGDwQNFC2bI/SOU/_3YxRElY7t8/s0/april-2.jpg

This time it's basically some simple color toning, a vignette, and lifting
the blacks again (with some slight split-toning).

Re: [Gimp-user] [Gimp-developer] Test images and test suite (was Re: GIMP should fork babl and GEGL)

[Pat David]

Jehan,

Ah, I did mean to link something, but thank you for linking my Flickr
account.  Note that for the most part, I have the RAW files from any of my
photos that I'd be happy to release for whatever purposes are needed.

I also have model releases for all of my images as well, and can include
them as needed (there might need to be some discussion surrounding how that
release is made available and in what context as they contain probably
sensitive information regarding the models themselves).

​To Elle's point about licensing, I can make them CC-BY(-SA) as appropriate.

To Elle's other point about color, I would imagine that the most desirable
solution would be to host the actual RAW files themselves (hopefully from a
variety of capture sources/cameras).  Any further work around conversion
should probably be noted as needed to effectively reproduce the results.

More importantly, if there is a consensus reached about certain types of
test images, I am also available to shoot new ones specifically for the
purpose.  I can rent other cameras/bodies as needed to support multiple
capture sources.  Please don't hesitate to ask if there's something that
may prove useful (I may not be coding, but perhaps I can at least help out
in this way).  ​

Re: [Gimp-user] Scanned negatives, moire patterns and GIMP?

[Pat David]

These are usually referred to as "Newtons Rings", and are from contact with
the negative backing side being placed against the scanning glass.  Liam is
right that there are better negative holders to keep the physical negative
away from the scanning glass to stop this from happening.  A short term
solution could also be to scan the negative with the emulsion side down
(but be really, really careful you don't scratch it).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_rings

Unfortunately, a fourier transform won't solve the problem, as the pattern
is circular in nature, and localized at the contact points (so a different
problem than the neat solution provided by Thorstein's video).

The best place to download GIMP if you are new, would be here:

http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

I would suggest removing what you may have installed already, and trying
fresh with a download from the "official" source.  Otherwise we can't be
sure of the integrity of the program.

Re: [Gimp-user] Cannot click anything

What OS are you on?
If windows, do you also have an antivirus program running as well? If so,
does pausing/turning off the antivirus stop the problem from happening?

This is a task likely better suited to a different tool, such as
Imagemagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/) convert or mogrify.

If all the images are in the same directory, and you know for sure that you
want all of them to be a certain dimension, say 1370px wide, and they are
all JPG files, then you could use the command:

mogrify -path OUTPUT-PATH -resize 1370x *.jpg

That will resize all the .jpg images in the directory to be 1370px wide,
maintaining the same aspect ratio, and saving them to the OUTPUT-PATH.  If
there is already a sub-folder called "output" for instance, then the
command would look like:

mogrify -path output -resize 1370x *.jpg

Re: [Gimp-user] Image transformation batch processing

[Pat David]

This could possibly be done with BIMP, but it's likely not the best tool to
achieve this across so many images.

Imagemagick is the more likely candidate for batch processing in this way.
There are a couple of clarifications, though.

If an image is <1000px on any side, should the image canvas size be
increased to meet your 1000x1000 px requirement?

ie: 800x600: center the 800x600 image on a 1000x1000 white background?  Or
just square it on a white background to the largest size dimension that is
<1000px?

I'm sorry to hear it!  It sucks when a piece of software you rely on and
enjoy using goes away because the company no longer supports or updates
it.  If only there was some way to let motivated people continue building
and expanding on the software for others...

I'm genuinely curious, __*why did you think this__*?

Again, I'm curious, why did you assume that GIMP would be like your
previous software?  I understand that you may be frustrated with learning
to use a new tool, but WHY would you assume that the new tool would be
anything like the other one you were using?

Why should a "Free" service be aimed toward anything other than what it
wants to aim for?  Or did you mean: "I want YOUR free software to cater to
MY requirements only..."?

If you're willing to pay $10 for a "free" software, then I anxiously await
your donation here:

http://www.gimp.org/donating/

How about we have ONE offer, and you can choose to learn to use it, or not?

I'm curious, did you even check these things out:

http://www.gimp.org/docs/

In particular, the tutorials section that covers many of the basics to get
started:

http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/

Or perhaps searching for tutorials to help you get started?

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=gimp+beginner+tutorial

What about the many different communities around that are focused on GIMP:

http://www.gimpchat.com
http://gimpforums.com/

Or if you're interested in photography-related tutorials (disclaimer: this
links to my own site with some basics GIMP tutorials):

http://blog.patdavid.net/p/getting-around-in-gimp.html
(more advanced) http://pixls.us

If there are simple questions that you need help with to get started, I
suggest that instead of sending an email to the mailing list lamenting the
loss of your precious other software, and expressing disdain that a
volunteer-run software project doesn't match your commercial software for
your particular uses, that you rather approach the list with questions
regarding the use of the new software to help support your particular
workflow.

There are many, many helpful and friendly folks here who would be more than
happy to help direct you to answers to your problems...

The least painful way? Look up Imagemagick montage.

What are the dimensions of your photos? You may be able to load them all up
as layers in GIMP and use the G'MIC version of montage as well.

Re: [Gimp-user] Dear Gimp

What/where exactly did you try to register?  GIMP does not require you to
register anything, anywhere.

If you are trying to obtain the software, please make sure to download from
a safe location, such as directly from the GIMP website:

Re: [Gimp-user] resolution, size when extracting from pdf vs. imagemagick

[Pat David]

The pdf can be exported at any resolution you ask. It's the reason you can
specify which density you want on import. (Imagemagick has a couple of
options for handling this:
http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=8707).

What happens when you set the import density higher in GIMP? Desired
results?

Remember that as a container, pdf's can contain embedded jpg images at

[Gimp-user] New photographic tutorial (pixls.us)

[Pat David]

I know this isn't specifically GIMP related, but I figured there might be
some photographers on the list that would find some interest in this.

Over on PIXLS.US, the creator of a new image processing project, PhotoFlow,
has just finished writing a nice tutorial on creating an exposure blended
panorama image with Hugin, PhotoFlow, Enfuse, and some advanced masking.
If anyone might be interested:

https://pixls.us/articles/a-blended-panorama-with-photoflow/

Also, if this is your first time hearing about pixls.us, come on by!  We've
got a bunch of tutorials (some ported from older ones of mine), and are
growing a community around F/OSS photography. :)

Re: [Gimp-user] How to reduce image file size while retaining width/height of image?

[Pat David]

You can export the file to a lossy file format such as JPG (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG).  GIMP has an option to "Show preview
in image window", which will also give you an estimate of the file size
from the parameters.  You can modify the "Quality" slider until you reach a
desired file size.  Does this help with what you wanted to achieve?

Re: [Gimp-user] Question

[Pat David]

Do you mean "stitch" together like assembling a panorama image?  In that
case, you might want to look at using Hugin (http://hugin.sourceforge.net/)?
There are some scripts/plug-ins for GIMP to assemble images for a panorama,
but I'm not sure of how up-to-date they might be...

Re: [Gimp-user] imp for website creation?

[Pat David]

If you mean to mockup a website using GIMP, then sure!  If you mean to
create a website automatically from GIMP, this is not supported nor
recommended...  I am assuming this is the same op as from this reddit
thread (
https://www.reddit.com/r/GIMP/comments/3dwsq4/totally_confused_about_how_to_make_html_things/
).

You can export image assets from a mockup to use in a site design using
dreamweaver if you need to.

Re: [Gimp-user] Cannot Install GIMP

[Pat David]

Hi Peter!

It's hard for us to diagnose how best to help you without more information.

How are you attempting to re-install it, and what is happening that is
preventing it from working?
What, if any, error are you seeing while trying to install?
Are you still on OSX Yosemite?  If not, which version?

Which install did you previously have on your machine?

Re: [Gimp-user] Cannot Install GIMP

[Pat David]

Just putting this back on the user list for visibility (please remember to
"reply all" to make sure it gets to everyone).

So, which one are you downloading to attempt to install?  Let's pick a
single one to keep things simple for the moment.

When you get the .dmg file, can you drag the app into a simple location,
like your desktop?  Then try to launch the app from there.  What happens
when you try to launch it?

Re: [Gimp-user] Cannot Install GIMP

[Pat David]

So, Yosemite has a "feature" that will automatically _not_ run apps that
are from an 'unidentified' developer.  This is _possibly_ what's happening
here.

https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18657?locale=en_US

So let's try this first:

Using Finder, go to where you have the app (Applications folder).  Use
Finder, not Launcher to get there.  Hold "Control" and click on the app
icon, and choose "Open" from the shortcut menu.  That should set the app as
a exclusion to this policy.  The app _should_ open now.

Try that and report back.

Re: [Gimp-user] Cannot Install GIMP

[Pat David]

Ok, what I would try next is to run the app through terminal to see if any
debug/error information is output to the console.

Open terminal.
Navigate to the applications directory:

>cd /Applications

Then run the GIMP app from the terminal:

>./Gimp.app/Contents/MacOS/Gimp

Copy everything that is output on the terminal from that, and send it here.

Re: [Gimp-user] Windows Version lacks 'Select a region to grab'

Windows generally doesn't capture the mouse pointer when doing screen
grabs. Irfanview does have an option to grab it if you want. Also, win has
a handy built in screen capture program: windows snipping tool.

Re: [Gimp-user] Luminance and luma for an sRGB image using GIMP 2.9

[Pat David]

Hi Elle!

Did you happen to have some visual examples that demonstrate the
differences between the operations (luma vs luminance for instance) for a
user to see why they might want one over the other?

Re: [Gimp-user] How to import a raw camera file with color depth greater than 8

You will need UFRaw or some other raw processor to generate a high-bit
depth tif, first, then load that.

Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP stops working -- please help.

[Pat David]

Is there an antivirus running?  We've heard some reports of some antivirus
programs causing issues.  What about other processes/programs that are
running at the same time?

Can you boot into safe mode, disconnect internet, shutdown all unnecessary
programs, and then run GIMP ok?  If so we can begin to narrow down the
likely suspects...

Re: [Gimp-user] PDF with multiple images-original scan from off-white paper

[Pat David]

It's possible using something like BIMP (Batch Image processing in GIMP),
or to code a script.  Otherwise, it may be something best handled by
imagemagick?  (I normally turn to imagemagick/g'mic for batch processing
vs. GIMP personally).  Could you link/attach the doc or a page of the pdf
that shows the problem?

Re: [Gimp-user] space bar to move around, not enable disable in an other window

[Pat David]

What OS?  What version?  Which version of GIMP? What else is running?

I know that in some OS, a selection on a dialog can be activated through
pressing the spacebar - perhaps what is happening is that your passing a
selection/entry to the last active dialog (in your case it sounds like the
layer visibility check?).  Can you just use your middle mouse button to
pan, or bind the modifier for panning to a different key?

Ms Kays,

As GIMP is a free software licensed for use under the Gnu General Public

This software is not under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of

Re: [Gimp-user] New question on Gimp

[Pat David]

I think what you're looking to do is to use a luminosity mask to target
which tones in the image are being modified:

http://blog.patdavid.net/2013/11/getting-around-in-gimp-luminosity-masks.html

There's a discussion of this on gimpchat as well:

Re: [Gimp-user] Luminosity confusion

[Pat David]

To expand on what Partha already said, make sure that the file you download
is a plain text file, and that the extension is actually .scm. You should
be able to open the file in any text editor to see the contents (and as
Gene already mentioned - check that the file contents are similar to the
one that works).

Another option is to follow the link to the Registry on that blog post and
to try it with Saul Goodes version of the script. This is actually the one
that I recommend, as Saul is far more knowledgeable than I about
scripting/Scheme.

Check those things and get back to us. We'll get it sorted out. :)

Re: [Gimp-user] ai files in gimp

[Pat David]

Why not export figures from GIMP and insert them into your project in
Inkscape?

Then you can keep your vector graphics in Inkscape.

Re: [Gimp-user] Save and automatically apply a series of editing steps

[Pat David]

Unfortunately no, no short version of pushing buttons (yet).

Script-fu or Python are probably the best bet at the moment? At least
there's a script fu console and the pdb to reference while building out a
script...

Re: [Gimp-user] Wavelet Decompose

[Pat David]

Specifically, you can get G'MIC as a plugin for GIMP here: http://gmic.eu

The filter you're looking for is Details -> Split details [layers].

Re: [Gimp-user] Wavelet Decompose

[Pat David]

I'm guessing you're asking about the G'MIC plugin now?  It should go in a
Plug-ins directory (GIMP, Edit -> Preferences, Folders, Plug-Ins).

I believe you just unzip the components into the Plug-ins directory.

Re: [Gimp-user] i think i found a bug?? not sure if im going about this the right way, the info i read on what to do seemed confusing

[Pat David]

Hi Jennifer!

I'd have a look at this page: http://www.gimp.org/bugs/

Search for an existing bug that possibly shows the same symptoms as you're
seeing.  If you don't find it, make an account and report all the details
in a new bug report! :)

It would be more helpful if you could have included actual links to the
software on question or at least links to results that want to emulate.

Before you answer, consider if you've provided enough information for
someone that's _not_ you to figure out what you are looking for.
