<killermach_> PhilH: thanks.. I remove the ufraw-gimp rpm and the open fine.. I must have installed that recently, I wonder why I would do that, I don't know what it does.. I'm in the habit of only installing what I will use
<PhilH> ufraw is a handler for raw image files from digital cameras, i guess these JPEGs might contain something that was confusing GIMP into using it to load them
<killermach_> ok.. I dont' do that.. Ijust googled for it so thanks for your help.. :)
<PhilH> it might be an idea to try those JPEGs on an up to date system with the latest version of UFRaw installed and see if the problem still occurs
<killermach_> what do I need to update?, I have an ubuntu 6.10 dvd just arrived in my LinuxFormat mag
<unseensoul> PhilH, have you seen my image?
<PhilH> unseensoul, yes
<unseensoul> PhilH, how can I remove it?
<PhilH> you might want to use the levels tool and copies of the layer with various blending modes over the top of the original and see what works best for you
<unseensoul> ok
<unseensoul> thank you
<unseensoul> :)
<killermach_> how do I "bend" text, I would like some text to be "arched"
<PhilH> apparently it's easy with the development version of GIMP, in current stable versions you could try using curve-bend on the text layer, or use inkscape to place text along path and import the SVG to gimp
<killermach_> thanks
<killermach_> PhilH: curve-bend did a nice job.. I haven't used it before so for my lack of skill with the tool, I'm impressed :)
<PhilH> killermach, that's good to hear
<killermach_> I have curve and it has lots of stair steps, how is best to "smooth" this out, currently it's a 1 pixel width curve
<PhilH> how did you draw the curve?
<PhilH> killermach, if you didn't draw your curve using the paths tool you may want to try doing so, you can then stroke the path and draw nice clean crisp lines
<PhilH> or killermach_
<nowimproved> i just tryed to open a jpeg file and get this error
<nowimproved> Opening '/home/complexity/bg_main_withnav.gif' failed:
<nowimproved> Plug-In could not open image
<nowimproved> Plug-in crashed: "jpeg"
<nowimproved> (/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/jpeg)
<nowimproved> The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.
<nowimproved> i cant open jpeg or save jpeg
<schumaml> the filename doesn't really sound like jpeg - of course it doesn't necessarily imply a file format, but this is quite common
<nowimproved> ya i renamed it to gig
<nowimproved> gif *
<nowimproved> to see if that would work
<nowimproved> lol i was being stupid
<nowimproved> i dont know what is going on
<schumaml> that means that format detection still works
<nowimproved> (gimp:20439): Gimp-Plug-In-WARNING **: gimp: plug_in_flush(): error: Broken pipe
<schumaml> is the file valid?
<nowimproved> yes
<nowimproved> i cant even save jpeg files
<nowimproved> i get the same error
<schumaml> anything we should know about your system?
<nowimproved> know
<nowimproved> it is gentoo
<nowimproved> i have all the libraries installed
<schumaml> can't say that I didn't expect this
<nowimproved> huh?
<schumaml> only gentoo users manage to come up with weird bugs these days
<schumaml> any plug-ins which are not included by default?
<schumaml> iirc ufraw is know to cause similar problems
<nowimproved> i think it uesed to work
<schumaml> +n
<schumaml> just to make sure, this is the latest stable?
<nowimproved> ok thank you buddy
<PhilH> ah, gentooers
<killermach_> PhilH: I used first a box around my text then curve-bend, this made lots of jaggies, then I took a oval select tool to make the arc then stroke the selection with a fuzzy 3x3paint, still not really clean
<killermach_> PhilH: ok.. I did create/edit paths, then move the handle to get a nice arc, then stroke path 3x3 fuzzy paint, then rotate slightly to match my text arc
<killermach_> tahnks
<PhilH> it's best if you stroke with a line, rather than fuzzy brush, unless of course you want a soft line
