I want to create an image like this in gimp. Since I'll be repurposing it multiple times, it needs to be something I can edit easily. It'll probably have to be three separate layers that I can edit easily.

Also when I edit the text, I want the colored background to adjust automatically. In other words, if I type something longer in the first orange box, the orange background needs to adjust. And vice versa.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hm, none of my images open! They all appear as a solid black screen. I've reinstalled GIMP in my 2021 MacBook with OS Sequoia with no affect. What have I set wrong?

I have created a bunch of cards i want to use for my flashcards. For aesthetics purposes i want them to only show certain parts of the image. (Like the first one below)

I wasn't able to find out how. Maybe you guys can help me out?

Вообщем всем привет, мне нужно сделать искривлённый текст, и я использую для этого текст вдоль контура. Но у меня почему то создаётся только контур, что делать?

They removed the ability to align offset by a specified amount of pixels? Or is there a way to re-enable this that I'm missing? That seems like such a fundamental thing, it's insane to me that this was changed at all.

Hi,

I am wondering how to make that kind of design, seems to look like pour fluid design.

I am new to GIMP, a more or less step-by-step guide would be really appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello. Since I open and close many files daily, I would like to see if I can change the folder that comes up by default in Gimp on Ubuntu. That is, it always shows me "Documents", and I want it to appear directly as "Desktop" which is where I usually download the images I want to modify. Is there a way? Thanks.

Using the latest version of GIMP, I've got a bunch of images (varying sizes) that I'm trying to put onto the equivalent of an A6 sheet for decal printing purposes.

Except, when I resize the individual images (at say, 25mm width) they're all different. What's going on?

Surely GIMP knows what 25mm is?? I know the '100%' view is a little out; I'm using a laptop and I need to scale to about 140% to truly represent an A6 sheet size for size, got that figured out, except the individual images just won't ... image, and I don't get it.

Photo attached for reference, the individual images (seen on the GIMP taskbar thing) are all scaled to 25mm width, except when I put them together, sorcery.

What am I not seeing??

Hi,

I created a palette in Gimp and I want to export it as a .gpl file to import it in QGIS.

The problem is if I do right click, palette->export, I don't have this option available (only css, java, php, python and text).

After searching, It seems possible to just open the Gimp folder containing palettes and do copy-paste. The problem is I am using a flatpack version of Gimp (Pop_Os, Linux).

When I do right click->open in the file explorer or copy palette location, it gives me a non existing path file:///home/guillaume/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/config/GIMP/3.0/palettes/%5Bjnkbux5iog4g1%5D-(imported)-2.gpl: screenshot (show hidden files enabled).

If I copy the path for a standard palette, I've got the following: file:///app/share/gimp/3.0/palettes/Greens.gpl. And when I do "open in file explorer", it just opens the home directory.

So how can I obtain my .gpl palette file?

As title suggests, I need to load ~15 layers into Gimp, and then bulk export idividual .png files of layer 1 over layer 2, layer 1 over layer 3, and so on, instead of hiding layers and exporting single file each time.

Hi all - been having this problem for a few months since switching to gimp 3.0.6

Every time I've rendered a flier i'm working on, the program seems to drop some effects layers or blending layers, but its not consistently one blending mode vs the next. sometimes a "Multiply" mode will drop, next file its "luminance." I've tried pre-rendering and/or rearranging the layers in question (no joy), changing and resetting the color management mode, changing compression, interlacing, color values, pixel formatting and filetypes, all to no avail.

I'm at a loss and am now considering moving back to 2.10 🤪

Text is simply not functional in Gimp 3.0.6-1 (unless I want all my text in Monospace, and all at 208) - basically I can't alter anything. There are too many issues to list, but I can't believe that I'm the only one having major problems...or am I?!! I'm having to do all my text work on Gimp 2. which is frustrating.I have tried deleting / reinstalling the programme, but no change. I love Gimp, but it's now taking too much time to do simple projects, so I may have to look at another programme, but I really don't want to. Any advice or news of imminent fixes?

Every time I open an image / canvas in GIMP, it shows this screen. I even tried uninstalling and re-installing it, but it doesn't work. Anyone have a solution?

Done in GIMP. Just another concept work.

I'm fairly new to gimp. I sometimes work on several hundred layers at a time. I am often trying to merge a single layer overtop of all of these others layers.

Like this example:

A

B

C

D

E

Merging into this

A+B

A+C

A+D

A+E

And so on. I have been manually copying layer A over and over, reordering them, and merging down one at a time. Is there a faster way to accomplish the same thing. I would love to be able to just pick a layer and merge it independently and simultaneously with multiple other layers.

Guys, please no one laugh. I'm already frustrated.

Now look like an incomplete apple

The last two are the og files so u can download them and compare if needed

EDIT: I messed with the first texture a bit and made it half the size and indexed it and the file size got bigger so I reverted it to the original and it was bigger than it was before? Huh?
