<0> Hello, world.
<0> I am trying to make a text logo with a drop shadow using one of the predefined script-fu scripts.
<0> I would like to use "3D Outline", but it insists on a "pattern" for the text.
<0> Gradient bevel is more like what I want, but it doesn't have an option for adjusting the blur in the shadow.
<1> hey
<1> i draw some leafs , i wante to draw shadow for them but it draws the shadow for the layer
<1> hi
<1> kikr, u there?
<1> hi
<1> any one here?
<2> LinuxMafia: Here the Drop Shadow plugin draws shadows for the selection as well
<1> rubikcube, oh i fixed that
<1> rubikcube, whole layer was selected
<2> ah ok
<1> rubikcube, so i clicked select >>None
<1> and it worked
<1> but man i **** at drawing leafs :))
<1> i need one of those drawing taplet
<1> don't know if it is expensive or not
<1> rubikcube, do you use one?
<2> AFAIK, about 60$ for a small wacom tablet.
<1> oh it is expensive then
<2> I have one by Aiptek, but there's no Linux driver with pressure senistivity atm, so I wouldn't recommend it rigt now
<1> i dont think i can buy one soon :(
<1> i owe too much money
<1> to bank
<2> well, the upper range is _really_ expensive http://www.wacom-europe.com/int/products/cintiq/index.asp?lang=en

<2> 2500$ +
<1> wow
<2> but that's something we can only dream of :-)
<1> yeah
<1> like dream of Winning Lotto
<1> i just owe 6000$ to bank
<2> yes, so that we know what do do with the winnings ;_)
<4> At least they're looking slightly more reasonable now than they used to though
<1> hey PhilH wb
<4> hi
<1> finally i am learning some teknics lool
<1> draw tree shadow
<4> that's good
<1> PhilH, pressing shift or control with hand free hand selection , does not make lines right?
<1> like pencil or brush
<4> you are correct
<1> PhilH, not tool for that?
<1> no*
<4> the paths tool
<1> oh did not learn that yet
<1> so i have to wait :P
<1> again i am not pationed
<1> lol
<4> you can draw polygons with it and convert them to selections
<1> wow
<4> well, you can draw all manner of shapes with it, but polygons are presumably what you're after
<1> that is really cool , it make jobs easier
<4> it also makes it easy to scale what you're drawing, http://gug.sunsite.dk/thumbnails/1065276188.png
<1> wow
<1> PhilH, that is your paint?
<1> PhilH, did you paint that from scratch?
<4> no, i traced it from a selection
<1> PhilH, like when you want to select only the face of some one from a pic
<1> PhilH, right?
<4> i took a graphic containing the tarsier outline, cleaned it up to get a good selection and just used the selection to path option to convert it
<4> the image was already lineart so it didn't take much doing
<1> PhilH, cause i wanted to select face of some one , it was really hard for me
<4> well, you have GIMP 2.3, don't you?
<1> at some points color of the face was similar to color beside it
<1> yeah i do
<4> look up SIOX
<4> in the book you've been using
<4> if it's written for GIMP 2.4 it should cover the siox tool
<1> yeah it written for 2.4 also
<1> cool thanks alot
<1> Extracting foreground objects with SIOX
<1> yeah
<1> it is in next chapter
<1> :P
<1> cool
<4> LinuxMafia, you may also want to read http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/node35.html and some of the subpages at some point, for a better understanding of selections
<3> Title: 3. Selections (at gimp-savvy.com)
<1> PhilH, thanks i defenitly will do it , i book mark it right now , thanks alot
<4> http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/node47.html might be worth a look too, if this kind of thing isn't already covered in the book you have
<3> Title: 4.5 Masks and Selections (at gimp-savvy.com)
<1> PhilH, this book is really exellent , it explains lots of stuff
<5> Is there a way to save files at a 1 bitdepth?
<6> createa indexed image and save it in a picture foramt that could handle 1 bit
<6> n8
<5> n8?
<6> it's 4:31
<4> xbm should do 2 colour images
<6> or gif or png
<5> ok I just didn't know how to tell it to be 2 color.
<6> IMage->Mode_>Indexed
<5> ok thanks. Still no idea what you were talking about with n8 and 4:31
<4> oh, it might have been night
<5> oh jeeze now that makes sense. I thought he was talking about a file format with a 4:31 ratio.
<5> which would have been rather odd...
<7> are there plug-ins to paste something from inkscape to gimp?
<8> good morning (or evening)
<9> anyone have a nice big set of abstract brushes?
<9> *sigh*
<9> guess no
<10> hi
<10> i am looking for a way to convert abr brush version 6 to gimp format
<10> i found a tool : abr2gbr, but only works for version1 :'(
<10> i found abrviewer, but only works on windows (that i don't have)
<11> rapsys: get the format description and add the code to e.g. abr2gbr?
<10> schumaml: i am not a programmer :'(
<10> if would have done that myself if I could
<10> in fact it's just to make a background for a svg logo
<1> hey
<1> any one here
<1> ?
<1> how can i resize a pic with 4 layers?
<1> i need to resize all
<1> any one?
<12> image > scale image
<1> zezozose, but how can i not select any layer
<1> ?
<12> don't you need to resize the whole thing? all layers?
<1> yes
<12> there you go
<12> you don't need to select anything
<1> thanks
<1> alot
<12> you are very welcome
<13> How can I fix gimp so that it can print like every other application without dumping out garbage?
<13> I have a brother HL-2040 printer
<11> what do you get? postscript as text?
<13> It depends what I print. Sometimes I get dozens of blank pages. Other times I get blocks. Other times I get text garbage.
<13> It works fine from EVERY OTHER APPLICATION. I just don't understand why gimp needs it's own drivers.
<13> I suppose the right thing to do is to use another application to print.
<14> Nuxi, actually my nephew is having the same problem with gimp
<14> Nuxi, we havn;t solved that one yet
<13> I wish there was a setting that just told it to use cups like everybody else.
<13> I guess that's pretty much against the UNIX philosophy of everybody writes a completely different method of doing what everybody does.
<11> it's not gimp, actually
<11> gutenprint (formerly known a gimp-print) is a different project
<11> iirc there's a print plug-in based on libgnomeprint which does use cupy printers, and a recent 2.3 built against gtk+ 2.10 does get rid of external dependecies for basic printing alltogether
<11> +n
<13> It seems from the documentation that I'm doing things backwards. I shouldn't be trying to get gimp to use cups (which supports a ton of printers). Instead I should configure cups to use gutenprint (which supports very few printers).
<4> what driver are you using in gimp-print?
<13> I've tried a few. Postscript 1 & 2. There seems to be no options for brother printers.
<13> I suppose I need to make my own plugin that saves the image, opens another program and prints.
<4> no brother printers at all?
<13> none. It only has epson, canon, hp, apple and lexmark.
<13> seems all of the docs at gutenprint.sourceforge.net ***ume that nobody in their right mind would buy anything other than an epson.
<13> My printer is listed as supported, but ...
<13> supported doesn't mean easily I suppose.
<13> supported means that if you type in the magic string for Command, it works, But nobody will share that with anybody else.
<4> gimp-print is horribly complicated, oddly they use it on the Mac
