<0> How do I center a text layer over the base?
<0> Is there a way to center a text layer over the background?
<1> hello
<0> Hi
<1> could someone help me install gimpshop on dapper drake ubuntu?
<0> I have been looking, but can find a way to center a text layer over a background
<0> Seems like something so easy would not be so difficult
<2> i'm trying to make some better icons, but i'm no GIMP/Photoshop expert. i'd like to know how to make that reflective look that's so popular on websites (and Mac Tiger)
<3> _with_a_y: see /topic
<3> http://gug.sunsite.dk/?page=tutorials
<3> \o/
<3> also google
<2> i've been digging through google for days now & can't seem to find exactly what i'm looking for. but i'll check that link out. thanks.
<4> what is it called when a picture is way too bright
<5> a too bright picture
<3> p0t: brightness or contrast
<3> dindinx said what we were all thinking
<5> :)
<4> i was thinking it was called overexposed or something like that
<4> i tried messing with those but it doesnt help
<4> the detail is lost ...idk if i can recover that
<4> no luck yet
<6> How do I increase text selection rectangle?
<6> I want to do some work on selected text, but the selection is cut at the bottom
<7> how did you select it?
<6> Didn't actually, just wrote it, it's already selected
<8> Select > Grow
<8> but I doubt your text is auto-selected after you wrote it...
<7> is the bottom of the text below the images boundaries maybe?
<6> no, it's all within the background layer
<6> Text has a rectangle around it as you're writing it...
<8> that's the layer boundary
<6> But it is cutting the font
<8> you have no selection
<9> Mitja: select the text layer in layer's list, click on it(layer in the list) with right mouse button and choose "Layer size to image size"
<9> this will enlarge boundaries of the text layer and you will be able to draw more and effects will not be cut.
<6> thanks
<6> Should this work also with multiple texts?
<6> In a single image
<7> each text is on its own layer
<6> I have one layer as a background which is bigger to accomodate two lines of text. And when I choose "Layer size to image size" it increases its size to that background layer.
<7> yes
<10> hello.
<10> I'm using gimp on windows, but everytime I press the open or save button it takes a long time. Can I do anything about that?
<8> don't you have network folders that take a long time to respond?
<10> I dont want to delete them... but I dont need them always on, thats for sure
<11> I just upgraded to gimp 2.3. Where did the color selector thingy go?
<11> You know, the thing that has two swatches, for foreground and background, and a little arrow to exchange them?
<5> it is disabled by default
<5> reenable it from the preferences if you need it.
<11> okay. why though?
<5> why not?
<11> well, because it's useful.
<11> palette is nice but sometimes you want to be more particular about the color.
<5> it provides the same functionnality as the color dock dialog
<11> maybe that's the issue, perhaps this dialog is covered up by something. Let me look for it...
<5> btw, 2.3 isn't an upgrade at all. 2.3.x is a development release, not to be used for production work
<11> I see it has told me this in the console from which I launched it.
<11> thanks, though.
<11> Gentoo didn't give me any indication that it was a development version though. It just says that 2.3.9 is the latest version.
<11> Does it work like the kernel, with odd versions being dev releases?
<11> e.g. 2.2 is stable, 2.3 is dev, 2.4 is stable, and so on?
<5> yes
<11> okay, thanks. Bye.
<12> Are there any front ends for the GIMP to clean of the UI?
<12> *up
<5> Briguy: a good editor and a C compiler. Or just use the preferences dialog, your mouse and tweak your WM settings.
<12> alright thank you
<13> hi all
<13> I need frame corners do you know any ressource?
<5> what are "frame corners"?
<13> for pictures
<13> pictures frames
<5> Briguy: do you want to do something like this: http://dindinx.net/files/whole_screen_gimp.png?
<12> yes :-D
<5> Briguy: then you only have to "Or just use the preferences dialog, your mouse and tweak your WM settings."
<13> dindinx: http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=fr&lr=&q=frame+borders&btnG=Rechercher
<12> the lay out is just annoying, I love the software, I just wish I could dock the layer window and tools in... oh nice ok
<13> dindinx: any ressource?
<5> Briguy: you can of course dok the layer window, have a look at this video to learn how to use docks: http://dindinx.net/gimp/videos/docks.avi
<12> thank you dindinx
<5> nvictor: I still don't understand what you're looking for exactly. Some texture to put around an image?
<13> exactly
<13> to make it something like a framed picture
<5> google seemed to give you plenty :)
<13> :(
<14> nvictor: what's wrong with the frames in this search?
<13> I'm looking for flowers :(
<13> I used to do it with a font but forgotten its name
<15> how do I batch resize images?
<5> with mogrify
<16> i always thought gimp had an included script to do it, but i looked the other day and could not find one
<5> you can easily write a script to do it with gimp, but it is so much easier with mogrify...
<15> hmm
<15> what's mogrify?
<16> dindinx, as I have just discovered,...damn that is easy
<16> wikiii, http://www.imagemagick.org/script/mogrify.php
<5> wikiii: it is a program that comes with the imagemagick package
<15> ok
<15> thanks

<15> I want to go to the Atlantic Raiforests near Rio de Janeiro
<17> wikiii, Rio de Janeiro is a nice place
<17> wikiii, could you help with the gimp, please
<15> I can try, I just joined to ask for help too. :)
<15> marylly: http://tinyurl.com/mnqld
<17> wikiii, you can ask whatever you want
<15> I did, I needed to get ImageMagick to do batch resizing
<17> wikiii, i would like to reduce the image opacity
<15> maybe under "layers"
<17> wikiii, i don't have a very nice english, but could you understand what i mean?
<15> I do
<15> exactly
<17> where do I have to go in the layers?
<17> wikiii, i found
<15> I think you need to go to "Dialog", then "Layers", and there should be a bar in the top of the layer window that says something about opacity
<17> wait a minuto
<15> good
<17> there are so many tools in the gimp, and windows that i get mixed up
<15> me too
<17> perfect!
<15> ok, so press ctrl + l and then lower the bar that says Opacity, and you will get it
<15> :)
<17> wikiii, thank you very much!
<15> no problem marylly, happy to help
<17> wikiii, you are very kind! =]
<15> Thank you
<17> wikiii, where are you from?
<15> The state of Texas in the Unites States
<15> the city of Houston
<17> wikiii, how nice!
<17> wikiii, and are you a student?
<15> I am in high school, so yes.
<17> wikiii, I left the high school last year
<17> wikiii, i started the college this year
<15> I will start in about two years
<17> wikiii, please, how can put together two layers?
<16> marylly, merge down layers?
