<0> i have a problem i ahve a 85x53mm image and i wan't to insert it into an image of 210x297mm the problem is that when i post the first image instl the second one it GROWS like modifying its dimenions how can i make it not change its dimensions?
<0> should the first and the second image be in the same resolution ?
<0> probably right ?
<1> tecnoba: there's also a user manual
<2> where?
<2> can you show me, please?
<1> http://docs.gimp.org
<1> Agiofws: yes, they have to be in the same resolution
<1> it is probably easier if you change the ruler unit to pixels
<0> why is that ?
<1> why is what?
<2> i have image, and now i want to cut it in more pieces to use it on web. i any easy way to do that?
<0> is there anyway to print buisness cards using business card dimensioned paper
<0> i need to print then in high resolution so the quality is respectable and i canot manage a 25mbX11 image that i have to copy paste on to an A4 sized image so i can prin 11 images at a time
<1> Agiofws: this approach is flawed - unless if you know what you're doing, but then you proably wouldn't run into such limits
<1> creating business cards in a pixel-based editor is strange, at least
<3> silly quick question down and dirty how can i tell the values of a background color when open in gimp TIA
<1> color picker
<0> schumaml, why is that ?
<3> schumaml:what is the path ? i have an image and i want to know the values of the bg color
<1> boricua: it is a tool
<1> Agiofws: you'd usually use an application that has one master and multiple copies of one card
<1> for example, something like OenOffice.org
<3> schumaml:TY
<1> a possible "you know what you're doing" scenario could be that you want one a4-sized painting as the background for one page of cards
<1> but even then you'd use OO.o and set the painting as page background
<0> i do not have OO yes
<0> i have abiword but it crashes whenever i try to insret an image
<1> well, there are dedicated apps for this as well
<1> glabels, afaik
<3> schumaml: thank you so much it really helped to fix something quick and dirty i appretiate your input!!!

<6> evening guys, on the gug tutorial page ( http://gug.sunsite.dk/tutorials/tomcat10/?PHPSESSID=4773725046fc20362574d90e23bfcf6f ) how do I make a selection like the one in the 6th image. I've tried for almost two hours and need help now. I do a alpha to select, then a shrink by say 4 pixels... I want to reshape the selection so it looks like the 6th image in the aforementioned link.
<6> anyone?
<6> hey _Robbo, need your help man.
<7> Umm... sure why not, so long as you don't think I'm someone else
<6> nope... id take a dead hookers advice now
<6> :)

<7> hahaha
<7> which version you sing?
<6> 2.something something..... the lastest from the ubuntu repositories
<7> sure, I'm 2.11 or something
<6> 2.2.11
<7> so you followed the instructions to the letter? I'd try doing it myself if I wasn't maxing my resources
<6> yeah, the inly reason it worked in that example is the scanline and slpha selection. thats how hes was able to do the selection. I'm doing it on a solid color image
<7> I see
<6> I cant believe its not possible to drag a selection and resize by its corner and snap to rulers!!!
<7> time to ask the dead hooker I think :P
<6> just so happens I have some in the trunk of the car
<6> :)
<7> heh
<6> thanks anyways m8

<8> I installed some japanese fonts on my system (via apt, debian) and added the directory into which the dpkg placed the .pcf.gz files to my font dir list in gimp config, but when I go to use them they aren't there... am I missing something obvious?
<9> mdh: to add TTF fonts to my system, I just copy them into ~/.fonts/, run fc-cache ~/.fonts, and verify that they were inserted with fc-list
<9> Not sure if that'll work for .pcf.gz files, but it ought to work for .pcf files. Fonts are handled by fontconfig.
<8> yeah, I read the manual section about fontconfig for system-wide adding, but it should've been fine to add them in the menu I did for just my own user account via gimp...
<8> however now looking at fc-cache -v, it doesn't see any fonts in that dir, so I guess I need to gunzip them first... weird o.O
<9> Hmmh
<8> hmmm, still 0 fonts if I gunzip them :-(
<9> You copied them into ~/.fonts, ran fc-cache on that directory, and can't see them in fc-list?
<8> no, I ran fc-cache -v as root, so it looked at the dir to which the debian package installed them (in this case, /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/)
<8> and it reported finding 0 fonts in that dir... this is after pointing gimp directly at that dir and having it not see them either... :-(
<9> Should be good enough
<9> I dunno. I'm using Mandriva and I don't have trouble with TTF fonts. Never tried PCF fonts, but I imagine they'd work the same way.
<8> but `file *.pcf` after gunzip'ing them showed that they appear to not be broken files (says they are "X11 Portable Compiled Font data")
<9> Is there any URL where you can download the .deb's PCF files directly?
<8> I have the pcf files
<8> after re-reading the wording of this manual on gimp.org, I'm almost lead to believe that it doesn't support pcf format fonts :-(
<9> mdh: that ought to be a fontconfig thing, not a gimp thing
<9> What's the name of the package?
<8> xfonts-intl-japanese
<8> according to the gimp website " GIMP 2.0 handles a variety of font formats, most notably TrueType, OpenType and Type1."
<8> which the other fonts I looked at (where fc-cache said it found fonts) were ttf or postscript type1 font files...
<9> All I can see is fonts-ttf-japanese: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/2764784/com/fonts-ttf-japanese-0.20040629-2mdk.noarch.rpm.html
<9> And all it contains is a bunch of TTFs
<9> Maybe you need to find a Debian Japanese font package that uses TTFs.
<10> yahoo! i found my first bug in gimp!
<8> yeah, I'm installing ttf format japanese fonts now...
<10> when i select the whole picture, then invert my selection and press Ctrl + K, gimp clears the whole picture. shouldn't do, i guess.
<8> Ardonik, yeah, it works with the ttf fonts... gimp just doesn't support .pcf format, then.
<9> But they didn't show up in fc-list either
<9> Maybe there's a different way to add .pcf fonts that I don't know about.
<8> I dunno, I've tried the two documented ways as per gimp.org, so... :-)
<8> working fine with the ttf's though... thanks guy :-) take care
<9> No problem
<11> Any keyboard shortcut to maximize all gimp windows ??
<12> this would be a shortcut of your WM
<11> NOt necessarily, thanks to global shortcuts. Anyways I have to press alt+tab multiple times to bring all the gimp windows into focus. What am I missing?
<9> I just put all the GIMP windows in their own desktop.
<12> a good wm
<9> The desktop's name, incidentally, is "GIMP."
<9> So MicrosoftWindowsKey + F5 brings up the GIMP for me.
<9> me <-- fluxbox here
<9> er, yeah.
<11> Ardonik: Thanks! that was easy :)
<9> grizzly: no problem. That what multiple desktops are for, after all.
<13> hi people. Is there a single sentence explanation why GIMP doesn't have 48bit image editing capability? Or it is common thing in Photoshop too?
<12> ilgaz: yes : you haven't coded yet.
<13> oh, got my response. Thanks, keep racing photoshop that way.
<12> we're not racing at all.
<14> why racing photoshop?
<14> Gimp is a separate tool
<13> OK- I was stupid to come here and ask that trivial question, sorry for bugging, bye
<15> Hello, do you guys know what IRC channel would be appropriate to ask a question related to EXIF?
<15> I'll ask it here and see: I wonder how I can easily change the Orientation bit under Linux.
<15> And I also wonder if the preferred method of rotating images is that one, or rotating the picture alltogether (with exifautotran, for instance).
<12> redondos: have you tried with exiv2 ?
<15> dindinx: No, but that's a good tip. Thank you.
<15> I suppose everyone here has a digital camera. (Or most) What do you do for rotating your images?
<15> Do you "hard-rotate" them, or just set the proper value for the Orientation EXIF bit?
<16> i use digikam
<16> batch rotation
<15> And what does digiKam do?
<16> http://www.digikam.org/
<16> my nikon usually compensates for rotation
<16> so i dont really have to do it much
<16> time to go to work
<15> Bye.
<15> DigiKam, by the way, 'hard-rotates' them. (What is the appropriate term?)
<17> hi all again!
<15> hey
<17> hey redondos
<17> re
<18> hi
<17> hi elge
<18> how to move a selection (rectangle) ?
<18> not the content
<18> of the selection
<18> just the selection itself
<18> I've got the correct selection dimensions
<18> I just need to displace it a bit
<17> elge: there should be some buttons in your tools properties dialog
<17> (dunno how that dialog is called in EN)
<17> one of them is for applying the move tool only on the selection
<18> rubikcube, I can't find it but I worked around it. thanks
<17> hmmm... can't find it...
<19> any artists here want to create a background for a project I'm working on? :)
<20> hey, how can I make something like this where the colors blend into each other? http://www.freecomputerdesktopwallpaper.com/new_wallpaper/Bob_Marley_wallpaper_picture_image_free_music_Reggae_desktop_wallpaper_1280.jpg
<20> how do I change the center color on a gradient?
<21> is there in gimp a channel menu like in photoshop ?
<22> hi
<22> I've changed from windows to linux and so from photoshop to gimp, there's one thing I need atm: how can I make outlines for layers in gimp? in photoshop it was easy with the layer effects, but gimp hasn't got that feature :-(
