Hello
I'm running the new Gimp package on OS 10.5.4. Thanks to all who are involved in its development.
As a mosaic artist and not a programmer, I am keen to know if there's a way to revive the "conical
anamorphose" filter that I understand was part of earlier versions. I would like to make a 3-d rendering of an image and then apply glass and stone to it.

Could anyone explain to a lay person how this filter could be added to the program -- if it can?

Thanks so much, George

Good day,

My workflow is: Pentax raw (.pef) > rawstudio > gimp > save as tif > add
iptc data with exiftool. If I then open the tif again in gimp I get the
following message:

wrong data type 7 for "XMLPacket"; tag ignored

and on saving again all the iptc data has gone.

Is there a solution to this?

TIA,

Andrew

Hi,

I'm currently not able to open psd files with Gimp. (SVN build under Ubuntu). During the process to opening the file the progress bar stops by ca 75%. With Gimp 2.4.5 the same. I can load all the those psd files
under Windows with Gimp 2.4.6.

Here is a stack trace. Maybe someone can help. Would be appreciated.

Is it considered proper to ask a question again if I've rec'd no response after a week or so?

Thanks, George

David, I just realised that I accidently sent my last reply to you personally. I'm sorry for that. I am used to the OpenOffice.org mailing
lists, with which I can just click Reply to reply to the list automatically.
It seems like I can never get used to having to enter the address of the
list manually or click Reply to all and then remove all addresses except the
list's address.

Hi,

Tried to edit the pre-loaded brushes, but they are displayed as Write

myself owner and I gave the files all rights and I even did that to the
folder itself (except I didn't change the owner of the folder).

Still, the brushes are write protected, so I can't, for example, rotate
them.

Set the folder as writeable in the GIMP folder preferences.

Okay, replied:

"I'm sorry to say this, but I couldn't find that. I found Folders ? Preferences but I couldn't see anything to change there, except that I could
and and delete search paths. I'm not sure I'm following?"

Actually, I meant that I found File ? Settings ? Folders (or if "settings"
should be replaced with "preferences", I have the Swedish version, so I am
not really sure).

However, David replied:

Folders -> Brushes

So here's my new reply:

If you mean File ? Settings ? Folders ? Brushes, I can't really see any
possibilities to set anything to writeable or even setting anything at all
to what ever, except that I can add and delete search patchs for the brushes. There are a few buttons, but they are all deactivated. The buttons
seems to be New, Up, Down, Delete and a green ?. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
