[Gimp-user] 3D Lettering

2005-01-10 Thread Derek Cassista
Is there a way to create 3D text like in Photoshop? All you have to do in Photoshop is create a path around the text, convert the layer type to a path, and bevel the text...this won't work in GIMP. ___ Gimp-user mailing list

[Gimp-user] we need more documentation

2005-01-10 Thread Sven Neumann
Hi, now that GIMP 2.2 is out and the major problems with the early 2.2.x releases seem to have been fleshed out, it would be nice if we could put some effort into documenting some of the new stuff that's hidden in the 2.2 version. So this is a plea for help on documenting things. I am sorry that
