• PixiEditor 2.0 – A FOSS Universal 2D Graphics Editor

  Krita is pretty good. I find the UX reasonable and G'MIC¹ is a joy to use in there. ¹ https://gmic.eu/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• G'MIC 3.5.3 – Our Open-Source Image Processing Framework Keeps Growing

  Hi HN, I'm one of the main developers of G'MIC (GREYC's Magic for Image Computing), an open-source image processing framework we've been building for over a decade. G'MIC provides hundreds of image processing filters and tools, available as a command-line tool, a GIMP/Krita plugin, a standalone GUI, and a C++ library for developers. We just released G'MIC 3.5.3, which brings new filters, optimizations, and... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Is there a 'Graphic Pen' filter or other grain-texture equivalent?

  But I would use G'MIC as you can scale the grain, control opacity Filters > G'MIC_Qt, a window opens Degradations > Add Grain > https://i.imgur.com/FHXJ6CF.jpg. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Is there really no way to edit all layers at once? Do I seriously have to make colour corrections on every single individual layer?

  G'MIC will do it, On the GIMP top menu go to Filters > G'MIC_Qt, do your color correction and then at the bottom on the input select "All" or "All visible" or whatnot (multiple option). Source: over 3 years ago

• The map reveals a lot of clues?

  This is just GMIC filters which are an awesome free filter suite for Photoshop/Gimp/Krita. Source: over 3 years ago

• Yet another GIMP newbie with a question: Am I barking up the right tree?

  You do not need to abandon the ship, with 2 plugins (one is G'MIC, the other one is to export layers as image and it does way more as well), and a one line code in terminal, you will be able to do it with GIMP (although I think it's the perfect job for ImageMagick, but I don't master it).

• How would you go about combining 75,000 images into a single image (more details inside post)

  With a plugin, GMIC you can also produce the average layer, so that spares you setting all the opacities. You still have to load them in Gimp (not too likely to have hem all fit and display). You can also use GMIC directly in a command line (but again, a command line with 75000 files is not obvious, so you may also have to divide and conquer). Source: over 3 years ago

• What is this kind of design called? I would like to generate such patterns within a text for a nonprofit math logo I am working on. Any help to develop these would be much appreciated. Also, I need the circles to be as close and nonoverlapping as possible. Been searching but nothing helps. ?

  Whatever Software you use (GIMP / Krita / Photoshop / Affinity) you can download a plugin called G'MIC (Free Software), once installed, it should be in the "Filters" list. Source: over 3 years ago

• Breakdown an image

  If you don't have the G'MIC plug-in, it's over-there > https://gmic.eu , restart GIMP after G'MIC installation). Source: over 3 years ago

• [HELP] I don't know how I created this effect anymore. Maybe you can tell me?

  IIRC here is also something like this in the GMIC filter suite. Source: over 3 years ago

• questions on transitioning to gimp

  There are 2 plug-ins to have whatever you think about plug-in... It's the Resynthesizer plug-in (Photoshop's content-aware is alike it), And G'MIC for its capacity to work on multiple layers at once and some really good filters as well as some 3D objects in it. (and if you have to use the "Style" from Photoshop, I would recommend the different GEGL filters from LinuxBeaver...). Source: almost 4 years ago

• Inspired, Not Duplicated

  There's something to say about where it fits in someone's artistic toolset. Feels like an extensive image computation tool suite, with no lablel or help toolbox for its functions. Like G'IMC, but without its helpful dropdown menu of functions, just a text input area instead. Sure, it still can do a lot. But it's not for everybody, I suppose. (Btw, aforementioned toolsuit does everything I need in tandem with... Source: almost 4 years ago

• Is there a fix for G'mic crashing in Gimp 2.10.30?

  Which GIMP are you using? snap, flatpak, PPA, ...? Was G'MIC from the original website https://gmic.eu ? Or somewhere else? Which G'MIC version? Why not using GIMP 2.10.32, instead of 2.1030? Which Filter in G'MIC are you using? Source: almost 4 years ago

• Can you shift lines in this way .

  If you do not have G'MIC, download it it there > https://gmic.eu (official website). Source: almost 4 years ago

• Link copy layer

  Or depending what you will do, you can use the plugin G'MIC, and at the bottom of the UI, as Layer Input, select all, or visible, or so https://i.imgur.com/3ZBG82s.png. Source: almost 4 years ago

• 16 bit tiff to 8 bit RGB

  I don't really understand what you want, but may be you're searching for something like this... In the GIMP's top menu Filters > G'MIC, a window opens, go to Testing > Joan Rake > Details > 8-Bit Plane Splitter, if you don't have the G'MIC plugin installed, it's over-there > https://gmic.eu.

• Once UI is learned, are there any disadvantages from PS?

  There are few "mandatory" plug-ins to install which sadly do not come with GIMP, like resynthesizer (it's the counter-part of the photoshop's content-aware), G'MIC is also quite important for many things like some 3D things and other filters and tools in it. u/CinnamonCajaCrunch 's new GEGL filters would be a big plus as the counter-part of the photoshop's Style which made the life way easier.

• HELP: Morphing

  GMIC-Qt is a filter engine/collection available here. Word of caution, if the video is old (seems to be Gimp 2.8?) the GMIC UI could be a bit different and the filter could have been moved to a different section as well (use the search bar) to find it. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Is there a way to map colors with a math equation?

  2) You can prepare some kind if CLUT and use the GMIC filter suite to apply it. Source: about 4 years ago

• Can anyone help me with a beer label? Info in comments

  Rr you can use the G'MIC plug-in Filters > G'MIC, a window opens, go to Deformations > Warp [Interactive], it will take times and not that great for this very purpose. Source: about 4 years ago

• Trouble getting plugins to work (python attribute missing)

  Unless you're a developer yourself, you better off to go with GIMP stable (actual latest version is 2.10.32) and, because many people install plugin without knowing the very basic of GIMP, if you want THE "big" plugin install G'MIC, other plugins will come in time with experience.
